Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1TalonLevel 1 is yours because egg-less, slow Anivia can't punish or survive your early aggression.
Level 2TalonLevel 2 stays Talon-favoured as your W-slow into Q burst beats her telegraphed skillshots.
Level 3TalonLevel 3 is your prime window: full combo pressure against a mana-starved, escape-less mage.
Levels 4-5TalonLevels 4-5 remain yours since she still has no egg to survive a committed all-in.
Level 6AniviaLevel 6 flips to Anivia as Rebirth turns your kill into a mere popped egg and stall.
First itemAniviaFirst item favours Anivia because the egg plus Glacial Storm zoning survive and kite your burst.
Two+ itemsAniviaTwo-plus items are Anivia's: permanent egg, wall, and unpushable wave hard-outscale your all-in.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Levels 1-4 are decisively yours: Anivia is slow, mana-hungry, and egg-less, so dodge Flash Frost with your E terrain-vaults, W-slow, and Q in for heavy burst. Keep her shoved off farm and set up dives while she has no way to survive a committed jump.
