How to play Annie
Read the full guide
SupportSupportSit on 3 passive stacks whenever you can: Annie’s nastiest support catches come from adding the fourth stack with E while Q is already in flight, so the stun appears later than the enemy expects
Annie’s better support games usually come from revisiting the same Flashless bot-lane window until it pays out, not from early roam-only play; recent data leans toward repeat bot punishes and tower follow-through over leaving lane cold
When you are behind, Tibbers still needs a job: drop him to sit on the first diver, split the fight, or pin someone off the re-entry instead of forcing a poor-man’s burst combo, which is part of why Annie holds up better in longer games than in fast losses
Without Flash, play harder around 3 stacks and enemy movement habits instead of forcing a full commit. Sit in brush, threaten support-item procs, and make them guess whether the next Q is just chip or a stun buffered with E. If they still have Flash, you usually want to tax health, burn cleanse tools, or set up a repeat window rather than all-in from neutral. If their Flash is already down, your no-Flash catches get much better because W or buffered stun range is suddenly enough. In fights, no Flash Annie is often more valuable holding Tibbers to peel a diver than reaching for a low-odds backline start.
After casting 4 spells, Annie's next offensive spell will stun the target.Annie begins the game and respawns with Pyromania available.
Annie hurls a Mana infused fireball, dealing damage and refunding the Mana cost if it destroys the target.
Annie casts a blazing cone of fire, dealing damage to all enemies in the area.
Grants Annie or an ally a shield, a burst of Move Speed, and damages enemies who strike her with attacks or spells.
Annie wills her bear Tibbers to life, dealing damage to units in the area. Tibbers can attack and also burns enemies that stand near him.
