How to Beat Vladimir as Anivia (Mid)

While statistically Anivia is slightly stronger than Vladimir in the mid lane, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

The magic damage that Anivia deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Vladimir deals primarily magic damage (94.26%), additional magic resistance may be required.

An important advantage of Anivia is higher farming statistics (ranked 12th among role champions) (versus 40th for Vladimir), which provides a stable gold advantage in extended games and allows faster access to key items. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.2 versus 2.7) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Anivia Mid versus Vladimir Mid matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Anivia player to maintain constant pressure on Vladimir, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

Anivia tips:

  • Timing Flash Frost with Frostbite can lead to devastating combinations.
  • Anivia is extremely reliant on Mana for Glacial Storm. Try getting items with Mana or going for a Crest of the Ancient Golem buff on Summoner's Rift.
  • It can be very difficult for enemy champions to kill her egg early in game. Seize the advantage by playing aggressively.

Playing Against Vladimir

  • Try to take Vladimir down before Hemoplague detonates, as it will heal him for each afflicted enemy Champion.
  • Making Vladimir use Sanguine Pool at the start of a fight will maximize the Health cost of the ability to him.
  • Items that counter Health stacking, such as Liandry's Torment and Blade of the Ruined King, are very effective against Vladimir.
