Anivia is really good in 4+1 comps-- she's great at stalling pushes.

She has like no offensive lane presence, because anyone with half a brain can dodge her Q, and her R's range is so pathetic.

I just don't see why anyone would bother playing Anivia when they can play a much easier midlaner.

land your Qs and she has one of the strongest pre-6 phases in the game
the trick is wait for them to CS or move predictably or something, its just a matter of practicing it but shes quite potent
anivia carries harder than most other easier ap mids throughout mid and lategame
shes also probably the most well rounded ap out there right now
high base damage + high scaling + CC/utility

Anivia's clunkyness is the only thing keeping her from being op. I wish her auto attack wasn't so terrible though.

Or practice the Wall/Stun combo. Lead your shot and put down the wall so they walk into the stun unless they stop moving. That's how a lot of high Elo players land it.

Froggen almost never streams anivia games. Not sure why, but if he plans to be serious he picks Lux on stream.

OK guys, TL was helpful in last project so I want to bring you guys another proofreading / critique / etc adventure.

I'm going to be making a quickguide series of pictures or w/e with conex. this is the first draft of the Thresh one: http://i.imgur.com/ipYxzmN.png

For the first release im gonna do Thresh, Nami, and Lulu. I was wondering what you guys thought of the design (seen above) as well as the content/writing (revised for thresh also) you can see here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AllLJAxUt7qcdEExSTVsNHVTdlBGZTdEQ2w5R1AwU2c&usp=sharing

Thresh's skill order would rather be QWE or QEW I'd say, his Q first because the passive makes his harass (and burst) so much stronger, which goes well with Threh's aggressive nature (he doesn't all-in as well as say Leona, but he has to go on the offensive nonetheless because poke would eat him). W's cooldown is too high even maxed to be used as a shield the way Janna's can anyway.
The guys over in the Nami thread seem to have differing opinions from you about the same she is most effective, I dunno how much you played her and you're obviously higher level but maybe you could discuss it with them, since Nami players seem to be quite rare.

I agree with Alaric. The W is a pretty situational thing you won't be spamming-- just toss it out maybe once a teamfight for a shield or reposition, or maybe to grab a soul or let someone jump. I go Q first because it gives more hooks more damage.

W/E scale the same, both increase 40 dmg per level. It's up to you if want lower CD on W or more slow on E. I tend to go E over W because Thresh is such a bully.

I believe it was more Frost/Blaze didn't want to resign with Azubu than Azubu dropping them.

you guys shoulda checked out the excel! the Q-w thing was switched before in the excel, that was just in the rough draft as i personally like w> q better, i liek to play him aggressive AA focused lane style and use the shield to trade, and ive tried Q with that but doesnt really work as well imo..

but anyway, it was q>w>e in the final draft cause thats what 90% of people these days do.

Oh? I dunno, my "aggro" style is aggressive warding/dewarding to abuse their lack of vision to threaten Qs, without necessarily casting them, and make backwards lantern tosses to my jungler easier. So I control the bush, try to zone the enemy carry, and to land an aa everytime the buff is fully charged, rather than several aa in a row. Maybe that'd work better (I don't use AD marks so my sustained damage isn't as high as your setup till I get enough souls).

I'll admit to only checking Nami and Lulu on the excel though. ^^'


In other news, the scaling in the game feels so strange sometimes... was playing Udyr in a non-serious game, the other jungler picked Yi, we both ended up the biggest farmers, and while I had 3600 HP and 300+ armour from locket+bulwark+tabi+FH+golem spirit he had ghostblade+BotRK+IE+PD+wriggles, without any % interaction like BC or LW, and despite my 78% damage reduction that he maybe put down to 75% and my turtle/bear spam to lower his dps whenever I could he'd kill me in less than 15 seconds and BotRK wouldn't even be a lot of the damage (maybe 800 to 2500+ from autos, and 150 from the active).
I felt pretty weak... then I looked at the numbers that popped: he'd crit me for only 230, except he'd do it almost every auto with 2.20 AS, and after the game his biggest crit was around 1150. He prob killed anyone else (but Darius with randuin's and thornmail) in under a second.
Still, I felt pretty silly falling to somebody without even a BC. x)

yea i think that playstyle is good and is kinda the standard style i tried to outline as well in the "lane pahse" text.

the weird thing i guess that i do is i like go into center of creeps every time im against like a lower range ADC or weak support, hide behind creeps and such and just whail on them with my passive Q etc., tossing the shield down to block creep dmg and maybe their 1 retaliation hit. This is the way i beat ezreal real hard imo. (cause he cant Q you since you are standing in the creeps). and it also works well with his passive cause you get all the souls from being in the creep line as well.

Yeah, March 7th.

Yeah you're right-- Frost/Blaze didn't resign with Azubu. TPA/TPS must be balling with money now though, look at their list of sponsors: Garena, Azubu, Acer, Intel, Razer, Kingston.
