Blitzcrank vs Anivia

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Use brush control and fog to threaten (Q) pulls that set up ADC burst damage.
Deny Anivia's zoning by forcing her to respect your hook angles and ADC follow-up.
Prioritize river vision to prevent Anivia's slow engage and enable safe roams after wave crashes.

Trading pattern

Hold (Q) threat until minion cover thins, then pull targets for immediate ADC burst.
Avoid throwing hooks through thick waves or at tanks to maintain engage pressure and follow-up.
Use (W) chase speed to reposition after hook or peel for your ADC when (Q) or (R) threaten.

Danger windows

Respect (Q) stun combined with (W) terrain to avoid forced movement into her zone.
(R) slows and zones, making ADC vulnerable if caught without your peel or hook cooldown.
Beware of enemy ADC follow-up during Anivia's engage attempts, especially when your hook is on cooldown.

Early game

Win the level 2 race with (Q)+(E) to create early kill pressure with your ADC.
Hold the side brush to open clean hook angles and deny Anivia safe positioning.
Coordinate with your ADC to crash the wave before roaming, ensuring their safety and lane priority.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (Q)+(E) all-in, enabling strong engage windows with ADC follow-up.
Level 3 adds (W) for chase and repositioning, increasing pick and peel potential.
Level 6 (R) silence amplifies all-in threat and peel, use with confirmed ADC follow-up or to secure river control.

Win conditions

Convert brush and fog control into picks by landing (Q) pulls that enable ADC burst and dragon setups.
Deny enemy ADC positioning by threatening hooks and controlling lane space, forcing recalls or missed ADC access.
Roam safely after wave crashes with vision in river to pressure mid and secure objective control before returning.
