Anivia the Cryophoenix is currently one of the strongest casters due to the combination of high damage spells, a stun, amazing amounts of slow, a wall that can ruin the oposing (or your own) team and her passive.

Rebirth - Upon dying, Anivia will revert into an egg. If the egg can survive for six seconds, she is gloriously reborn.
This is one of the best passives a caster could have. Not because theres a chance they won't kill you in 1v1 lane early but because in a team fight, you have to be killed twice. This can get really hard for the enemy team when your team is propperly organised and will remove alot of agro on you. (Like it does when a person would get GA)

Flash Frost - Anivia brings her wings together and summons a sphere of ice that flies towards her opponents, chilling and damaging anyone in its path. When the lance explodes it does moderate damage in a radius, stunning anyone in the area.
A massive chunk of ice flies toward target location, dealing 60/90/120/150/180 (+0.5) magic damage, slowing movement by 20%, and chilling any enemy it passes through. At the end of its range or if Anivia activates the spell again, the missile detonates, doing 60/90/120/150/180 (+0.5) magic damage in a small area and stunning units for 1 second.Watch out, Activating it the first and second time both proc kassadin's ultimate, but also give you tear charges.
Cost
80/100/120/140/160 Mana
Range
1100
This would be Anivia's skillshot and quite hard to hit at times (against for example, Miss Fortune) other then that its a very good spell, its slows has AOE stun and does nice dmg. A tip for hitting this would be to look for heroes that want to take a creep and punish them with a good amount of damage & stun/slow.

This is Anivia's most dangerous skill, for you AND your oponent, it is a huge advantage when you trie to take baron & fighting in the forest HOWEVER it can ruin EVERYTHING do not use it carelessly. NEVER use it on a olaf thats charging at you, he will move through it for some reason. In a teamfight on a lane use it to protect yourself or your teammates not to lock people out.

Very straightfoward. Anivia's main source of focus and early damage.

Late game damage, amazing slow and it toggles your frostbite's double damage. This is the skill that will protect you, help you catch people, give you very high crowd control in fights and make it easier to hit both your stun and nuke. be sure to trie and place this underneath or in front of your oponent. Watch out, Activating it the first and second time both proc kassadin's ultimate, but also give you tear charges.
Items
The first item you should always get on anivia is Tear of the Godess, because the first and second activation of your stun and first and second activation of your ultimate will proc the passive. You can fill the 1000 mana pool quite fast.
The second item you can is Rod of ages, obviously starting with the Catalyst. This will add some HP so you can't get easily killed & the obvious mana Anivia desperately needs.
After finishing the Rod of Ages you should make an archangel's staff out of your tear and then go for Zhonya or Void staff. The AP-Only way is the best way to get a high mana pool with 3 archangels after the zhonya for a whopping 1000~ Ap and 4000 mana.
General tips & tricks
Due to her passive Anivia can quite easily carry around Oracle's Elixer.
The best way to fight 1v1 is R>E>Q>E Toggling your R off as soon as your oponent leaves the aoe.
Anivia needs blue buff more then anyone, steal it if need be. You can easily kill it alone (it takes off quite alot of mana but hey, its a blue buff.
Anivia has no real need for summoner spells, so help the team. This means grabbing Teleport or CV should not be a big issue for you. If you do not need CV or Teleport you can grab flash instead for positioning & running purposes.
Try Bronivia, Anivia is olaf's strongest ally, and strongest oponent. (wall ruins him)
Masteries & runes
Basicly, 9/0/21 grabbing the mana regen, exp, faster reviving, teleport mastery, longer buff duration, movement speed and cd reduction. I do not grab flash mastery so I can put an extra point in longer buff duration.
For runes I have mpen red's, mana regen /lvl yellow's, ap /lvl blue's and flat ap quints.
Pretty straightforward caster runes.
For some reason I can't see the mastery tree thing on my laptop so can't input it atm but will when I'm at home so I can finally say I finished this thread
