Thanks for the kind words . I am also trying to grasp how we ended up in this situation after 5 Years of peace . A lot has happened and there are a lot of changes who have to be considered . My posts above are showing little of what is actualy going on in my mind . I simply started the discussion basen on what he wrote without mentioning most of my concerns . I already went full overboard which lead to two posts . Please try to stay kind and calm though . As he already mentioned , insulting and rude behavior won ' t help anyone . I do not know If you played her already , or in which elo you actualy are . But you should realy reconsider this . I was quite frustrated about all the changes that happened as well , but playing anivia right now with different builds , even if weaker than bevore , is still possible . I would almost say that I could enjoy her harder playstyle , if I just had any good oponents to test her limits on . As long as I had no true rival midlane silver , gold , or plat players do not count I can ' t realy say if she has to struggle without reason or not . So far I either won my lane due to missplays or won by experience rather than going to the limits of anivia herself . Of course I lost some games , but against hard counters like ahri who got aid by twitch and with missplace from me I can ' t realy blame this update for it . I need true situations where skill counts and I actualy play out those skills . If I fail even though I did everything possible holding enemy in r with wall , stun right , hit e two or more times than I truly have the insight of her weakness and strength .
