Pyke into Aniviamedium

Overview

Use brush control and stealth to threaten hooks and create ADC follow-up windows.
Prioritize river vision and roam timers to punish Anivia's low mobility and lack of escape.
Force volatile 2v2 fights where Pyke's execute resets and pick potential outmatch Anivia's zoning.

Hide threat in brush or fog to catch Anivia or her ADC off guard.
Pull targets into your ADC burst, then use to cut off escape routes.
Hold engage cooldowns until your ADC can immediately follow for reliable all-ins.

Respect stun combined with terrain to block escapes and set picks.
Beware of her zoning after level 6, which can deny engage angles and force fights on her terms.
Avoid overextending when Anivia's flash is up, as she can punish missed hooks with crowd control.

Win level 2 by coordinating and with your ADC for burst and stun.
Deny Anivia brush control to limit her angles and protect your ADC's positioning.
Crash the wave quickly before roaming to avoid leaving your ADC vulnerable to Anivia's poke.

Level 2 unlocks plus stun, enabling strong burst trades with ADC follow-up.
Level 3 grants full kit and stealth, increasing roam threat and pick potential.
Level 6 execute resets amplify kill pressure, especially on low-health ADCs or Anivia herself.

Convert successful hooks into ADC kills to snowball lane priority and roam opportunities.
Use wave crashes to create roam windows, securing river vision and mid pressure.
Leverage execute resets in skirmishes to force favorable teamfight entries and objective setups.
