She can negate your stun and root you constantly because of your lack of mobility.
Soraka
As soon as you get your anti-heal item, shield yourself / the ADC whenever she's about to use Q. Because of how damage reflect works now, she'll reduce her own heal.
Blitzcrank
You have low mobility and your only real defense is a stun (which the amount of times Blitz buffers through it- means nothing) and a shield (he explodes it.) I'd play someone else against him.
Sivir
She can always bait out your stun.
If you're playing with an ADC who has a hard CC of their own like Xayah or Ashe- this is an easier matchup.
Pyke
I have never lost against a Pyke as Annie. He's much too predictable. Just keep the nearest bush warded for when he dips and hooks. You can usually shield, let him hook in you in and then drop Tibbers on him before he dashes away.
Nilah
Nilah benefits more from your shield with her passive and your shield is ideal for her since she goes in deep.
Pair that with your stun and the fact she can bring people back into Tibbers' range is pretty neat.
Samira
A good Samira can make the most of your stun. She needs a shield going in and it's not bad having it also be a counterattacking shield. Basically Nilah but without also helping you in the process.
Caitlyn
Every Caitlyn I've played with stays behind in every fight- which isn't a bad thing but as Annie, that's not making the most of your shield.
Yasuo
In the rare chance you have a melee botlaner, specifically Yasuo- It's a very fun experience since he does not need to rely on your shield as much as other champions. You can have fun comboing into his ultimate. He's only here because it's rare to see him in botlane.
Ashe
Ashe supports you by slowing enemies, you support her by stunning them. If you don't have stun up, she ults. If she doesn't have ult up, you stun. A song of ice and fire.
Xayah
Usually if you place a stun right in front of her, she can root them directly after.
