Playing as Annie

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Farm with Disintegrate

    Last-hit minions with Disintegrate (Q): if the target dies, the spell refunds its mana and its cooldown is halved.

  2. Stack your stun with your shield

    Stack Pyromania (passive) with Molten Shield (E): after 4 spells, your next offensive spell stuns, without you having to step forward.

  3. Tibbers with your stun ready

    Cast Summon: Tibbers (R) on a group when Pyromania (passive) is ready, after a Flash if needed: the summon then stuns the enemies hit.

  4. Control Tibbers

    Recast Summon: Tibbers (R) to direct Tibbers: he burns nearby enemies, and each stun you land on a champion makes him enraged and faster.

Playing against Ahri

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Stay behind your minions

    Keep minions between you and her: Charm (E) stops on the first enemy hit, and without it her burst lands far less often.

  2. Dodge the return of her orb

    If you can only dodge one pass of Orb of Deception (Q), dodge the return: it deals true damage, which your resistances don't reduce.

  3. Play hard when her R is down

    Play hard once she has used the dashes of Spirit Rush (R): she has nothing left to escape with, and its cooldown is 140 to 100 seconds.

  4. Group up when she roams

    When she roams, avoid walking through the jungle alone: Charm (E) then Spirit Rush (R) let her catch an isolated target by surprise.
