Annie's AA Range Nerfed
No effect because she just last hits with her Q. Mana refund and reset. What exactly was the point in this "nerf"?

It was a slight nerf to support annie using spellthief so she couldn't poke from safety and get free gold without getting any retaliation.
Her AA range made it so she could farm with her Q, harass with her AA, and most mids could not respond... (honestly, i think they nerfed it to satisfy the cry babies).
The same goes with Riven, -5 ms "nerf", it's not like she builds cdr boots and proceeds to jump from one lane to another ignoring slows because she has 67 dashes.
Like other people have said it was a nerf to her harass potential. Although I'd argue it was a significant nerf since part of what makes annie a strong support is the ability to harass people down and then go for the guaranteed all in. This makes it harder to set up trades you will 100% win. Also I don't know what heimer turret range is but that stupid 13 year old has to get closer to my turrets/rockets/grenade now so I'm pretty happy about it. Before (maybe still but makes lasers hit way easier) annie was one of the few mids who could auto heimer turrets to death w/out stepping into range to be shot by them.
It was a nerf to support, and early game harass. She no longer can slowly tick down your health for a level 3 gank.
