How to win lane as Locke against Anivia · 50% win rate · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Anivia's only stun is a slow dodgeable Q, so level 1 is decided by skill. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | At 2 she still needs to land Q to do anything — pure skillshot lane. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Dodging Flash Frost denies her whole combo, keeping level 3 even. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Through 4-5 the winner is whoever wins the Q dodge battle, not stats. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Her level 6 R is defensive zoning plus egg, so the all-in trades evenly. |
| First item | Locke | Your first-item burst blows through the egg after a dodged Q, favoring you. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | Late fights hinge on flanking her wall, keeping the matchup skill-based. |
Levels 1-2 are even: Anivia is mana-hungry and slow, and her Q is easy to see coming, so contest CS and poke when her Q is down. She can't punish you without landing that stun, so play around dodging it.
