Anivia vs Alistar

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 9, 2026

Overview

Use (Q) and (W) to zone and deny Alistar brush control, limiting his engage angles.
Prioritize protecting ADC access by placing (W) terrain to block (W)+(Q) combos.
Control river vision to track Alistar's roam timer and prevent mid or dragon pressure.

Trading pattern

Hold (Q) to punish Alistar's engage attempts and create pick windows with ADC follow-up.
Use (W) to block Alistar's path and force him into predictable knockup angles.
Save (R) slow for peel when Alistar commits, enabling ADC to reposition or disengage safely.

Danger windows

Alistar's brush control combined with (W)+(Q) threatens instant engage with ADC follow-up.
Level 2 and 3 when Alistar has full kit and can chain CC; keep ADC behind minions and vision.
(R) during tower dives or extended fights reduces burst threat; respect his durability.

Early game

Contest level 2 wave with ADC to avoid (W)+(Q) all-in from brush.
Deny brush control early to reduce Alistar's engage threat and create safer ADC follow-up.
Use wave pressure to keep ADC safe and enable lane priority for vision and poke.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (W)+(Q) engage; play cautiously until ADC can match follow-up.
Level 6 boosts Alistar's dive potential; use (R) zoning to deter tower dives and protect ADC.
After first mana/AP item, increase wave pressure and poke to deny Alistar safe engage angles.

Win conditions

Convert wave and brush control into denying Alistar's engage angles and ADC access.
Use vision around river and tri-brush to track Alistar roams and enable safe ADC recalls.
Leverage (Q) picks and (R) zone control to set up favorable dragon fights and teamfight entries.

Tip: For Anivia vs Alistar, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Support lane check.
