Lux vs Anivia

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Lux is a long-range artillery mage who must use poke and binding threat to control the lane and deny Anivia safe farming.
Lux should pressure early to prevent Anivia from freely scaling and using her zoning tools effectively.

Trading pattern

Poke with E and punish Anivia's missed Anivia Q with Q root into burst combo.
Respect Anivia's Anivia Q and Anivia R zoning; avoid extended trades when these are up.
Use W shield to mitigate damage during trades and protect against Anivia's poke.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Anivia's Anivia Q is available, as it can stun and set up heavy damage.
Avoid all-ins if Lux misses Q, as this is when Anivia can punish aggressively.
Anivia's Anivia R creates zoning pressure; avoid fighting inside it unless you have a clear advantage.

Early game

Use E to poke and shove waves early, forcing Anivia to farm under pressure.
Avoid reckless Q usage as missing it leaves you vulnerable to Anivia's counter trades.
Maintain range control to prevent all-ins from Anivia, who is slow and vulnerable if caught.

Power spikes

Major spikes: Level 6 R and first completed mage item boost Lux's burst potential.
Respect Anivia's level 6 and Lost Chapter spike, which enhances her waveclear and zoning.
Lux's Q + E + R combo is a key damage window to punish Anivia before she sets up her zone.

Win conditions

Win by using poke and Q root to deny Anivia safe farming and force her to miss CS.
Punish Anivia's missed Anivia Q with burst combos to snowball lane control.
Use level 6 R power spike to execute all-ins before Anivia establishes strong zone control with her R.

Tip: For Lux vs Anivia, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
