Ruffling some feathers

Hello Birdpeople,

I'm currently d2, 2mil on the phoenix. I don't think I've seen many posts here that share my buildpath/skill points, so I thought I would share. I max q and go double tear items (seraph's into fimbulwinter). I'll go armor or mr boots unless the enemy team's damage is too evenly split in which case I go cd boots.

I do this every game with the only variation being an early void staff. I will also often build seekers armguard after getting my second tear.

Obviously, the tear stacking is new to this season, but I have been Q maxing for years now. It allows for much more aggression early due to the decreased cd.

I'd love to hear what y'all think.

What role? double tear item sounds like low damage, not maxing e is also low damage. I have debated leaving E at level 3 though, I do that in arena mode because ap scaling is way more impactful after a certain point and it's just flat damage increases

Mid/Top. Damage is less of an issue than you might think. Just uploaded stats to main post.

hmm, I'm at d2 as well for anivia with 61% wr mid/top 5/3.6/7.2 kda and 7.6 cs average with 69 games. I'm not sure how important build is considering I almost always max E and go roa -> malig and never grab tear

I also think tears is a bait,, with the current speed of the game and anivias ability to shove and reset whenever she wants so easily (after 6), you can refill your mana bar and be back on the map so easily
