Annie and the mid-year mage update

So, with the mid-year mage update coming up, I wanted to ask why Annie wasn't considered. Not only does her gameplay seem pretty linear, with her kit being "this does damage here, this does damage here, this makes you take less damage, and this does more damage", but oftentimes, playing against an Annie can be incredibly frustrating due to the fact that once she hits level 6, and has her stun up, you just let yourself get zoned for the range of flash tibbers.

Maybe allowing her to retain the position as the most basic form of a burst mage would be ok, but it would be nice to see her maybe have a little more to her kit than "If you have stun and ult up, get close to the enemy however you want, and burst the fuck out of them"

Annie is fine as is. If anything, I feel like the update will help her in one area: itemization. I feel like fixing AP itemization will help highlight the strengths and weaknesses of other mages.
