Why is Annie allowed to sit on stacks of her stun but Yasuo can't hold on to his knock up? Make Annie unable to sit on stacks of her passive.

I guess its because yas is pretty mobile champ compared to annie.

Its easier to shut down a annie over a yas.

It makes her a stupid lane bully. Its bad enough she can pull 1700 damage in 3 seconds

but she needs a stun to, and she can sit max stacks until she feels a reason to burn them. I was born retarded and I can see a problem with this.

She lacks poke range, and no escapes. Its really easy to gank her or camp her lane. If shes trying to sit on a stun, push the wave. At some point she will need to use an ability to clear a wave, at that point make your move. Its not that hard to counter her.

"push the wave." you say "She loses out on CS" you say, No she doesn't she sits there and guards her minions by way of zoning. Literally after level 6 there is no way to get CS with out eating tons of damage.

At that point the wave should be pushed towards your tower, call an early gank. :B and if your a yas, bait her stun and block with wall? Though, yas gets shit on by annie, just don't pick yas if your facing an annie. Play a champ who can zone her better, like Azir, or just make a no fun zone with galio.

there is nothing a jungle can do/will be willing to do at that point. at that point every one is screaming GG surrender at 20.

Annie is a lane bully only if she is allowed to be by the jungler. Any immobile mage that is infront of their own minion wave can be punished hard.

Annie Is a game bully. Not a lane bully. Its hard to do anything against her in any role. She one shots bursts anything besides a tank, and even a full tank won't last much longer. CC her you say? because 99 times out of 100 she melts 3 out of the five players on your team before any one can blink.

She scales to hard is the issue. And for that reason, There is no reason for her to have a stun. The fact she does, is stupid.

... How do you have problems against annie as yasuop. 2/4 of her abilities are projectiles.

I don't recall saying I was playing yasuo? I was saying If Annie can be able to sit on stacks so should Yasuo. I prefer both have a 3 second time limit to dump it or lose it all together. I only care for balancing the game.
