How to win lane as Anivia against Taliyah · 50.54% win rate over 372 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Taliyah | Taliyah's mobile poke and wall-repositioning let her outclass Anivia's static trading pattern before level 6. |
| Level 2 | Taliyah | She keeps controlling the poke exchange through level 3 while your kit is still cooldown-locked. |
| Level 3 | Taliyah | Same story at level 4 — her mobility and poke threshold continue to outpace your trades. |
| Levels 4-5 | Taliyah | Levels 4-5 remain hers since her roam and poke pressure still outvalue your kit before Storm. |
| Level 6 | Anivia | Glacial Storm coming online gives you the zone control to finally answer her poke pattern, flipping the lane. |
| First item | Anivia | Your kiting and Storm zone control keep dominating her mobile-poke kit in skirmishes. |
| Two+ items | Anivia | Full-build Anivia's teamfight area control and burst clearly out-scale Taliyah's poke-and-roam kit. |
Taliyah's mobility via Weaver's Wall and her Q-W poke combo let her control the trading pattern before you have any tools to answer, punishing your lack of escape. She'll look to poke you down and then roam using her wall-jumps to gank other lanes, so ward river proactively and play for CS rather than trades. Avoid extending past minions where her Q threatens double damage.
