Guide to Countering Anivia as Nautilus

Tips for Playing as Nautilus against Anivia

While ganking, consider aiming Dredge Line at nearby terrain and following it up with Riptide for a higher hit rate.

Riptide has a delayed blast timing on activation - you can use this while running away or when enemies are incoming to serve as a deterrent.

Advice to Win Against Anivia

Try to gank Anivia when she's laning. With multiple people, it is easier to ensure that her egg dies.

If you're playing a ranged champion, stay far enough away from Anivia so you can dodge Flash Frost more easily.

Try to fight Anivia in the lanes. In the jungle she can block pathways with lower ranks of Crystallize.
