She can play fairly safe pre-6 and once she's 6, she gives no fucks about farming under tower.
    Okay before anyone hates on Anivia, she's still very strong. Many people won't play her because she is a high skill cap champion exactly like Shaco and Leblanc.

    Agree, I just hate having to build two mana items on here every time I play her (I've mentioned this before). Lacks scope.

    Does this mean he'll still find a way to nerf Paladins?

    *That is horribly out of the meta. No mobility. Abysmal pre-6. Someone like Ziggs will just shove her out of lane. Someone like Gragas will just blow up her up.

    Good Anivias will never get countered, you have never played against a good Anivia obviously. Some are smart enough to abuse their wall to lead you ahead of time into their stun.

    You have about 4 directions to run in to evade the stun, Wall blocks one.

    I'm referring to .1% of Anivia players that just abuse everything about her. Most don't.

    Like abusing her AA's pitiful projectile speed to harass without minion return.

    Just played Ahri for the first time since the Charm change and went 7/4/7 against Karthus (I know, easiest matchup possible... deaths were to Jinx/Karthus ult combos with Kha'zix tower dives mostly, couple in teamfights) and I really like her. Didn't think I would, since I hated her pre change. Now, Charm feels meaningful to land, other than the obvious "welp I'm stuck for 2 seconds" CC that it brings.

    I'm not Diamond 1, nor Challenger. Neither are you. Pointless to try and present the argument as though all Anivias are.

    Even Froggen doesn't play Anivia anymore, and I honestly doubt you can find someone who mastered the bird more fully than him.

    You e-r them, they begin running away because they just lost lots of hp and are standing in aoe dmg area. You block off the direction they're going and they have to decide if they'll go left side or right side of wall. If wall is big enough you have enough time to see where they go and to fire off your q.

    E-R assumes you have your ult and aren't miles behind so far. Not too likely.

    Most champions have an escape.

    Do you realize that he probably doesn't play her anymore because if he were to bring her back it would just be an insta-ban like it used to be eh?

    Froggen was so good with Anivia he could never play her.

    Duilliath you were the exact person who said Fizz wasn't good enough for pro level when I said he was and guess what happened 3 weeks later... Froggen played Fizz and wrecked everyone and brought Fizz into the limelight.

    Thats a reason to play her... One of the best parts about having a champion like that is it soaks up a ban, Froggen even said it himself.

    Three weeks is a third of a split. I'm sorry but you can't even say that.

    Going to restate this again, everyone on this forum shunned me for saying Fizz was really good and a pro level pick. He was played weeks later and suddenly everyone thinks he's good, HE WAS ALWAYS GOOD! I hated playing against him in ranked well before he was played by the pro's.

    Leblanc is a pro level pick.
