Introduction
[champ/annie.png] is an underplayed AP carry and rarely played as an AD carry.
although AD Annie is considered trolling (which is not) she has nice auto attack range and is a bit weaker compared to other ad carrys but that doesn't mean she cant be played as an AD carry.
some might ask why play AD Annie when there are better AD carrys or why go AD just go AP?? the answer is simple it is simply more FUN.

pros:
- best AP carry to play with as an AD carry.
-nice auto attack range.
-its fun to play with another champ other than the regular AD carries[champ/ashe.png] [champ/caitlyn.png] [champ/ezreal.png] [champ/corki.png] [champ/graves.png] [champ/tristana.png]etc...
-has an AOE stun.
-u get a free 50 armor/magic resist (which is a free[items/chain-vest.png]+ a [items/negatron-cloak.png]for 15 seconds at level 9).

cons:
-weak early.
-weaker than most AD carrys.
-squishy
-can be killed easily if stun isnt available.
Masteries
masterys are AD carry masterys 21/9 which I think is best masterys for AD Annie.
runes:
  • marks:
AD:helps with last hitting and trading
attack speed:helps u get more auto attacks and Annie doesn't have goo attack speed early game.
armor pen:good for mid/late game but AD and attack speed marks are better since Annie has low AD and attack speed early game.

  • seals:
armor seals are best for when u are vs an AD champ
hp/lvl: when vs an AP champs.

  • glyphs:
flat mr:if u are agains [champ/tristana.png] or an AP.
mr/lvl
or
attack speed

  • quints:
move. speed:it helps allot in kiting enemy champs while you're preparing stun.
AD quints: adds more damage to auto attacks and easier last hitting.
Summoner Spells
[summoners/flash.png][summoners/heal.png]

Explanation:

[summoners/flash.png] [summoners/heal.png] are best for Annie

[summoners/exhaust.png][summoners/ghost.png][summoners/ignite.png][summoners/surge.png][summoners/cleanse.png][summoners/teleport.png]are all viable.

Explanation:



your controllable pet minion.
use it to stun multiple enemies.


Skill Order
[skills/annie/r.png]>[skills/annie/e.png]>[skills/annie/w.png]>[skills/annie/q.png]
max E first for armor/mr and helps u stay more in lane,and all of Annie's spells don't benefit from AD.
max W second because it has higher base damage than q.
max q last since u only need 1 for easier last hits stun charge while in lane.
Early Game
farm farm farm farm farm farm farm farm farm farm farm farm farm farm farm farm farm farm farm farm
get your stun up for when your jungle is ganking for an easy kill.
Mid Game
farm farm farm,and try to get most dragons as possible.
Late Game
here is when AD Annie starts to deal allot of damage,position yourself in teamfights and try to get your stun ready before every fight (in most cases don't try to go in and stun your enemies since your auto attack range is very high and u should use that to your advantage) .
dominion
dominion is a great place to try AD annie.
masterys same.

  • runes:
attack speed marks.
armor seals.
magic resist/lvl glyphs.
movement speed quints.
  • items:
start with[items/prospectors-blade.png]+[items/boots-of-speed.png][items/health-potion.png]

then build towards[items/sanguine-blade.png]+[items/phantom-dancer.png]

most games i play as AD annie is in dominion.

Jungling
personally i never jungled with Annie but i think ideal runes wil be
-atackspeed marks.
-armor seals.
-mr/lvl or flat mr qlyphs.
-AD or flat armor quints.
Final Comments
hope u enjoyed the guide.
if u have any suggestions write it in the comments bellow.

to those who say this is a troll guide(which is isn't) im just offering a new way to play Annie.

comments replys:
CrusherCake:(all of Annie's abilities use AP, and AD does absolutely nothing but help auto-attack...)
this guide is how to play AD Annie not AP, her auto attack range is quite high and for that reason i max E first since u don't benefit much for maxing another spell and second i max E because it makes u tankier.

    Who cares if it is a "troll guide". there is nothing wrong with playing champions with different roles.

    Though for the record, I'd say Lux is a better AD Carry than Annie ;P
