Much too easy to kill.

Very bad idea to buy so much hp and mana at early game
no dmg at all..

love it

havent read all ur guide just saw the build and i really dont get it......why build a tankie annie when theres gonna be a tank in the team protecting you???? Your job is to cast great damage while the team s tank receives damage. If u dont have great ability power in the team fights not only the tank will die eventually but u ll die as well cause it doesnt matter what defence u have annie still remains squishy

perfect 4 me cuz im super agressive

i just dont feel tank annie right now is her best option nad think she is more viable as an ap carry

You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Let me prove you wrong:

• Frozen Heart is the best tank item in terms of armor and not only that, 20% CDR is a huge damage amplification that makes it viable as offensive item especially on bruisers.
• Will of the Ancients is still the most coste effective AP item and unparalleled in terms of lane sustain. Late game, the amount of health you regain in teamfights is about 100-200 per skill use.
• Mastery performance is almost unchanged if you go over the first 9 points. None of the mastery points are particularly game decisive. AP carries gain something, lets say 30 AP if they go deeper into offense. Ok, take it. I am all for it.
• Doesn't fit into the meta. That. Is. Just. Brain****. You can play ANYTHING if you succeed in finding a way to make it viable, despite the thing you call meta. This guide is an example.

Dude, did you even read what the guide was trying to do? O.o

frozen heart,wota,and abysal scepter are not optimal item and the masteries are 9/9/12 and they do not offer the same performance 21/0/9. also imo the tank annie idea is good but right now it doesnt fit into the current meta

Wow. Damn. Marked me as impressed. When I saw the Chapters Content, I thought there was no way this could be a good guide based on the amount of chapters there were written. The depth just couldn't be enough.

As I read through, I recognize my error and was thoroughly amazed by the focus you have in this guide.

Usually, I would look through and see where your alternatives are (Items, Runes, etc). In this case you don't have any, but I think that's a good thing. You don't deviate from anything. You explain exactly what this Bruiser Annie is supposed to do and nothing else. You don't bother to give the usual barrage of alternate spells, because it just deviates from the focus of the build.

You manage to explain your gameplay in a matter of paragraphs. You barely waste words. Perhaps you can add extra bits here and there, but all the important information is there! Just, wow.

You have no variety, but in this case, it's exactly what you want.

The only gripe with this I might have (and it's not even really a gripe) is that a lot of it assumes people have prior experience using Annie and it might not be too viable for a beginner or maybe even an intermediate to just pick up and use.

I'm also a little curious about the Spell Vamp Quints. Wouldn't AP or HP Quints be better (I know you already suggested MS Quints)?

Having said that, wonderful build, beautifully laid out.

Very well done. +1
