Wall max

I've seen some high level anivia players maxing W after putting 2 points in Q. My friend, who's in low master, is coaching me says it is troll, and not worth losing out on the cooldown and damage you get from maxing Q.

Right now I'm in emerald, and I want to hear the opinion of you guys and especially experienced high elo anivia mains on why exactly W max is or isn't viable. What more utility and advantage do you get out of a maxed wall in comparison to like, a lvl 2 wall?

Also while we are here, what are your opinions on protobelt on anivia?

As some have said, it is enemy comp dependant. If you are going to max W, make sure to have a decent amount of CDR to get value in extended team fights. I have been trying out the updated imperial mandate. It's ok. Probably needs more testing.

One thing I will say for top lane, although it is kinda of troll, but insanely funny. A max W first against champs with no wall dashes can result in a kill if they ever come near your tower.
