Ty so much for this guide - especially the wholesome Threats Section!

nice

Can you add more matchups like Sylas and Veigar? :3

Does any Annie skin give an advantage, with better basic attacks or more fluidity?
I have seen sites that they recommend skins for x champs because the animations and certain details are better and give an advantage over other skins, does this happen with Annie?

What would Arcane Comet or Electrocute runes do more damage?

What composition would be better to go full damage?

Or

is Zhonaiy's Hourglass is more important rather than death cap? From my perspective, i would have tried to build death cap, lindey's torment and magic penetration. hour glass would have built depends on the situation for example if I face zed against me in mid.

i like this guide. now i am going to use it. then i will be much more clear about the practical use of it.

How should you choose between or ? Is one for a more aggressive style? (i have never played before.)

I love this build, and it's name too :D. I was confused at first thinking that this is a new champion but i sure was wrong haha. You explained it soo good... Thanks

What is your opinion with Inspiration being used as 'secondary runes' for Annie's Electrocute build (using Perfect Timing and Future's Market) and having two +9 Adaptive (5.4 AD or 9 AP) rune bonuses and a +6 armour rune bonus, instead of using secondary Sorcery runes and a +1-10% CDR (lvls 1-18) and +15-90 HP (lvls 1-18) rune bonus respectively?

Hi, I'm a big fan of and have had much success using 'Inspiration' in the past. I see nothing wrong with your choices here but personally am not fan of futures market and to be honest I think the best option right now is still 'Sorcery' as the secondary runes.

If I wasn't taking (CDR +1-10%) which I doubt most people do, I would choose:
• +9 Adaptive force
• +9 Adaptive force
• +8 MR (Against burst AP champ or high AP team) / +6 Armour (Against AD champ) / +15-90 HP (Go to choice)

I like your guide

nice guide!!! annie really do rely on her flash so much...

Two questions, if I may (yes, they're noobish):

1) In matchups you frequently recommend having stun on or almost on against certain champs( and indeed, Diana can kill Annie if not stunned, I experienced it) But how - if I am to last hit minions I should use my Q which will burn stun down? (Death from Diana, Kata, Akali and the likes) Is it bad that I frequently fail to last hit minions with just my AA after a few lvs?

2) ALso you recommend harassing / bullying Kata, Akali etc early on, before lv 6. Yep, that works for me - for a few minutes. Playing that way I can reduce their health to around 30%... then I have no more mana. And need to go back for this reason, with 400 - 500 gold only. I feel I achieved nothing, since they can heal back to 100% soon enough

Quoted:

"Try to keep your stun ready or almost ready (x3 stacks or so) at times that she might go for an all-in on you."

So this would not mean that you stand in lane only trying to AA minions just because you both have turned level 6. I don't know how experienced you are a league so I don't want to sound rude, but the more experience you gain against all match-ups the more you will begin to predict when those enemy players are likely to try to all-in you.

A quick scenario which might help: You and Diana are both level 6, the minion wave is in the center of the lane. Your jungler has just shown at bot lane to gank. Now Diana knows where your Jungler is and she will know it is a 1v1 against you or a 2v1 if her Jungler is around mid-lane too. It's likely that she could try to all-in you at this point so now is where I would keep my stun either 'up' or on x3 stacks and last hit by AA only. Better to lose a a couple of minions to last hitting fails than giving away a free kill.

The more you play the easier last hitting will become for you with your AA.

Another example is if your Jungler is dead, now she knows it's gonna be a 1v1 against you, assuming she looks at the mini-map and your allies are in their lanes.

If your ultimate/flash is down, perhaps you used it ganking another lane or helping your jungler out. Now is a perfect time for an attempt on you. I hope that helps a bit.

For the second question, you should try to AA them as much as possible and save the harass from your a bit. Use your AA -> Q -> AA when you are harassing them with your . During early laning phase you should probably only hit them a few times with your Q combo harass and the rest would be AA alone. If you have started your mana will regenerate, just slowly.

EDIT: I really hope the message doesn't come across as insulting or rude, it is not my intention at all. Good luck on the Rift :)
