The following are my own personal styles, so there might be more pro or "legit" ways to go about stuff, but these are what I do for moderate success
Heimer:
Full Build for me looks like this: Sorc Boots, Rylai's, Rabadon, Abyssal, Frozen Heart, and then one situational item depending, often Zhonya's or Banshee's.
I take Heimer mid or, depending on the top, I've topped on occasion.
Generally, Doran's Ring to start, and I level Q, W, R, E, with one point in E at 4 and a point in ult at 6. Those two(E and R) don't really grow much from increased ranks, so I usually opt to boost my main damage dealers.
Probably one of the most important things to remember as heimer: Laning phase, only retards will let you kill them. Seriously. If someone manages to die to heimer in lane phase they were either ganked or just stupid. Keeping that in mind, what you want to do is farm, a lot, and try to keep your opponent away from your own juicy minions, which heimer can do pretty well against most mids and the specific tops you'll choose to lane against. Basically, what I usually do is set my turrets right at the collision point for minions, and back up, beyond most attack ranges but close enough to give them a mouthful of missile if they try to last hit without 3 minions between you and them.
If your opponent is a weak laner or just bad this is pretty much all you do laning aside from general gameplay precations of watching out for junglers if you get pushed up too far, etc. If they aren't, it's time for the single hardest part of heimer: E.
Landing that pretty much sets the noobs from the decent/lucky heimers. It's not hugely powerful, but the cc can be a lifesaver/kill securing tool, does moderate damage, gives vision instantly to where it's targeted up until it explodes(never facecheck again ftw). Using this smartly can also help you land missiles(finish off a minion to open them up for a shot and possibly stun/blind them as well) and, really, E is the only real element of difficulty with learning heimer. I think I'm moderately good at landing it and it's pretty satisfying when doing so lands you a kill. Anyway, probably more than you wanted, but I'm bored and sugared up.
Anivia: Really, I just do not recommend Anivia for you. She's one of the most difficult champions to use properly and in my humble opinion absolutely tops the list in that regard, and you'll most likely get shit on for a long, long time by the current trend of mobile casters before you get a grip on her, which would be pretty frustrating. Not saying she's bad as seeing one opposite me is a rather demoralizing thing because most people that use her are pretty proficient and tend to own games, but it's very, very rare(I can't bring to mind anyone I see less than her, tbh).
Corki: I'm a shit Corki, so nothing to say here.
Mundo: Practice landing Q and get a feel for how wide the shot is. Use E pretty much all the time in combat, press W if you're spunky and laugh at all the damages when you ult because you've built so tanky. Really though, practice harassing with Q and the rest seems pretty simple imo.
Fidd: Ah, my old flame. Honestly not sure where to put him these days since his jungling is uber slow compared to some of the people that seem to tear through it before people hit lvl 3 and his laning is not so great. I've had some moderate success with Support Fiddle lately. Grab E at lvl 1, then max in RQWE order. Basically, stand in bushes. For the first 4 or 5 levels, toss E onto the enemy champions any time you can try to maximize bounces on them. After that, the lvl 1 damage just kinda sucks and you mostly use it for the silence. In between casts of that yearlong cooldown and after it stops being effective, fear them, then drain. If they aren't Vayne or Corki most of the time you and your carry beating on the enemy carry is a good trade for you. Also, as fidd, your job is to tank as much of the harass as possible for your carry since hp is so easy for you to regain(Not saying you should just eat damage for no reason, but do what you can to try and make sure you get hit instead of your carry as far as harass goes.
Also, hit 6 in the brush for a good shot at at least one kill and often a double if you plan it right =D.
( I use regular caster runes for this since the support role is really only to carry you through Fidd's mediocre early game and provide some solid support)
GP: I have the basics down, but I can't really give in-depth commentary. Dude's a rockstar though, recommend highly.
Lunch is about over so I have to do work for a bit, but I'll add more as I have time and wanna.
