He has 2 abilities which root himself in place, I could put a long list of what could happen to him, but let's keep restricted to the mid lane:
Hades ult
Agni combo
Vulcan ult and 3
Kukulkan 3 and ult
Change ult
Thoth ult
One of He Bo's 3 ults
Ra's 1 and ult
Ah Puches pretty much everything
Ullr combos (yes, he can be played in mid)
This could go on for much longer, but I hope you get the idea now.
His ult can be countered too easily (shield of thorns and aegis amulet, or just dash away).
He has ZERO abilities which help him sustain on the battlefield for longer.
His 2 can be juked easily, and if it is juked, Anubis is already pretty much dead.
Let's not forget that he has weak area damage as well, using the 1 is risky and 3 doesn't deal enough damage.
Oh and he's a squishy so gg.
