| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Akali | Your ability to dodge her skillshot poke and punish her lack of mobility gives you the early edge |
| Level 2 | Akali | Your Shroud engage voids her Flash Frost setup and she can't track you to punish the dive |
| Level 3 | Akali | Your all-in still wins clean because she has no way to escape once you commit |
| Levels 4-5 | Akali | Your damage and reset potential continue to outclass her stationary poke kit |
| Level 6 | Akali | Your item spike lets you one-rotation her squishy health pool before she reacts |
| First item | Akali | Your combo continues to dominate a champion with zero mobility tools |
| Two+ items | Akali | This matchup remains overwhelmingly in your favor with no realistic counterplay for her kit |
Anivia's poke hurts if you walk into a Flash Frost, but she has no mobility to punish you for playing around her cooldowns, and once her wall is down you can flip in with E and burst her before she can reset the trade.
