Which is weird because I find soldier or demo way easier to stomp with . Heavy is easier to counter than classes that can keep up with you andor bomb you . <| sep |> RE was oppressive though . If you were ahead all you needed to do was freeze lane and RE for a third of their hp when they tried to farm . Anivia has a deceptively short range now , thats all imho . Play her as a long ranged mage and she is just weak . But do not underestimate the MS you can get from runes and masteries to compensate for her innate low ms . I do believe that this is a nice direction and she will just need some small buffs to compensate . I also believe they will aim them at R since QWE are in a good spot at the moment . Oh and for trading , I basically rely on procing Stormraider ' s surge to be honest . If you manage to proc it you can somewhat reliably either juke back or go all in depending on the case . Still she can ' t function against every midlaner like i said already .
