I have no idea what they did to the annie stun passive but if you try to windwall the annie Q the damage will not go off but she keeps the passive stacks for her stun. Needless to say matchup is literally unwinable, and i know its not meant to be an easy matchup but at least you could stop the q stun before :I
Onegarion1 votesRe read anies passive. It spells out why it stays active after her Q is negated.
MeanwhileTopLane1 votesI went back and took another look. Her passive reads "After casting 4 spells, Annie's next offensive spell will stun the target for a short duration."
While i get that the way it is worded could mean that its intentional. Rito should at least say the next offensive spell that damages a target will stun them if they wanted it to work like that. Its worse than TF gold card going through the wall because at least he uses the stun and cant use it agian on something else.
I get what your saying i really do but i dont think the wording of this is any different from her "old passive" which the only thing that i am aware of them changing was the 4 auto passive jhin like indicator on the bottom of her health bar.
Onegarion1 votesYou may get the wording, but you don't understand how Annie's Q works with her passive. When they say the next offensive spell (immediately eliminating E), it means the next spell consumed. W and R are instant meaning you consume the stun as soon as you hit the ability. Q has a travel time and can be canceled. The way it works doesn't have it being consumed until it hits something.
If it worked the way you are talking annie could walk around and just spam W until she hit something. She wouldn't lose it for checking brushes or misclicking. She would actually have a pretty large buff because it would be she was guaranteed to keep the stun until she hit an enemy. Functionally the way you word it and the way it is are 2 completely different things. You are making her stronger with your wording.
MeanwhileTopLane1 votesI know it doesn't work like that and i never said it did. all i was pointing out is that it is situational power that makes it to where yasuo literally can not lane against annie
Onegarion1 votesThats how some matchups play out. You can't have the edge in every situation. You also can be dealt the wrong hand because of poor champ select. Thats on the player.
Its a mechanic where you have to decide when its more important to use your Windwall to stop damage.
MeanwhileTopLane1 votesI get what your saying but that wasn't the point Annie was and always will be a tough matchup for yasuo but this makes it impossible to win against her and the only viable option for yasuo to be even remotely useful if you get counter picked with Annie is to build full tank and I'm not even kidding because if you don't she will just stun and kill you.
While that is Annie in a nutshell. The matchup portions of this and decision making of to use windwall or not are irrelevant for the point I was trying to make in the post from the beginning which was the stun used to be consumed if you block her q with windwall and now it doesn't and all I wanted was for riot to see this and decide if it's another yasuo bug they are going to seemingly ignore and let ride or if they were going to decide to fix this if it's not intended
LadyRenly1 votesits working as intended, but honestly if you use w or r and don't hit anything it still consumes the passive, as soon as you q, even if the target teleports to the other side of the map, your passive should be consumed and tied on that q and immediately start a new stack of pyromania
