Annie Stun Not Working With Tibbers

Bakerduncan·Aug 10, 2017·3 votes·1,698 views

In a game I played as Annie it seemed whenever I ulted an enemy with Tibbers stun nothing happened. Tibbers was summoned on them and they were not stunned. I assume that perhaps I had just missed them or didn't actually hit the enemy champion? However, today a friend and I were playing and they said (I had not mentioned my issue with it) that they also thought that the stun was not registering when they used it with Tibbers. Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks!

Edit: I have not been able to replicate the bug in custom games. Perhaps it only happens if you have a certain item or something?

Edit 2: It seems that in both of our games we build a Morello and Rylais but we didn't have either completed when we first ulted. We just downloaded his replay so we're going to look at that.

is it possible for you to grab and post the replays? i haven't seen any problems with annie but don't consider it impossible that some sphagetti is happening.

It happened to me times in the same game and my friend says it happened to him twice as well. I just went into a practice range game and the stun seemed to be working against the test dummy and the enemy bot. It seemed like maybe it doesn't stun if used at the same time you flash maybe? I can't seem to get it to happen again. I just thought I should post it here because it seems weird that it seemed to be happening to both of us in game.

This is still happening btw, I just thought at first i was somehow missing the tibbers stun but when i played with my friends they all saw the same thing. It seems to work 80% of the time but its still not working as it should. Wish Riot would look into this bug. Annie [sg-shisa]

I would like RIOT to leave it that way but I understand that wouldn't be fair to annie mains xD.

Do they really deserve a fair game when they main such a champ?

I just don't like that she can stun more than 1 second it should be reduced then she's somewhat balanced.

I think Tibbers should only stun one target instead of the entire team, or at least have an animation where Annie tosses him first instead of just an old fashion "surprise muthafuka!" spawn

To be fair, Annie is meant for beginner players. That's why she's mostly point-and-click abilities. But I see people complain about her stun all the time. And you know what? She is trash without it. Try it sometime. Go into a bot game, but you're not allowed to stun enemy champions at all. Any time your stun is ready you have to waste it on a minion or creep or a W in empty air. I tried it once because a friend said she'd be fine if they removed it altogether. Instead, I discovered that her stun is really the only thing that makes her playable at all. Without it, her range is so low on everything but her ult that she's practically useless.

In that case we'd have to go AD Annie, not possible to avoid stunning something

I did it (again, in an AI game... I'd never advocate NOT playing your best in PvP). All you need to do is W in a random direction whenever your stun comes up to get rid of the stun proc. But if you try it, you'll see. That stun is the only reason she's playable. She's too slow and too short-range to burst well without that 1.75 seconds where the enemy can't run or flash away.

Maybe they'll be a rework xD.

Please don't downvote the post just because you don't want it to get fixed, I would like this to get a bit of attention to make sure it gets fixed if there really is an issue!

This^^^^ I really don't get why the League community even thinks about downvoting a bug report thread Literally nothing but good will come out of them
