Actually Anivia is the same type of a mage like Swain, Ryze or Cassio and that is sustain dmg AP carry.

When you look at streams Anivia has similar build to Swain - Unholly grail(well for him it is more situational item in my opininion even when he is more mana hungry then her - but that is one of his flaws), they build DC on her, sometimes RoA or even Abyssal (mostly on Anivia you dont build Zhonya but it is still viable on her).

Since Anivia has so big base dmg output you could even see on tournaments like DH a build that has Warmorg's in it.

And that is the thing... She is currently a top tier mage (probably in top 3) and even pro players start to complain on her and her minion clearing power since all AP carry's were nerfed and she was left alone (and the more a champ il left alone the more he becomes out of balance).
