How is Anivia not busted? Legitimately never understood it...
I don't get it. I played Ziggs vs Anivia and got a 2-0 lead thanks to my support roaming. I come back to lane and find myself 100-0d despite her having only an unstacked RoA and Tear. Not only was I MUCH squishier than her, but I also had no kill pressure.
My poke didn't matter much. She'd just insta-waveclear and then back off, maybe taking a Q here and there. If necessary, she'd recall after fast pushing the wave. On the other hand, the second I got hit by her combo, despite being 2 levels up, having better items, and more cs, I'm dead nearly instantly (stunned too). She also tended to have more impact in teamfights and far better zone control. I could be good in teamfights too but I couldn't create solo picks.
So where is her big weakness? She seems incredibly versatile and I guess the only thing she lacks is a dash. However, with her tanky build, incredible CC and being a ranged champion, that isn't exactly such a big downside. She's still never very vulnerable. It's not like playing Akali and worrying about dying pre-6 or putting yourself at great risk while teamfighting. My biggest problem with her is how BS safe she is while she can 1-shot nearly any mid if she lands the combo 1/20 times .
Amazing waveclear 2 lives LB level burst with combo. She can just try to wall you and combo you. Most of the time, it won't work and her Q won't hit but if it does you're dead and she has no real risk to it. If she misses, she just backs away calmly while you struggle to clear the wave. Amazing CC/teamfight control Naturally tanky build with RoA + Seraph's Mediocre but risk-free early game and laning despite great scaling
