Honestly. The new Tibbers AI can really suck at times.

As an Annie main i like the new Tibbers Ai.

When it fucking works properly.

There are alot of issues with it though. Here are mine.

  1. Tibbers losing sight of his target be it stunned or enraged will cause him to just stand there and do nothing. This is especially frusterating when the target gets away with little hp because they bugged the ai by walking into a bush or the fog of war.

  2. tibbers doesnt auto attack objective/jungle monsters/minions that Annie is attacking. If my lane oppoenent is dead and i want Tibbers to be useful i would like him to help me push waves or towers automatically without having to be commanded to attack every minion. It really slows down Annies own pushing power having to stop and issue attack commands for each minion.

  3. Tibbers switches targets at the worst times. So many times i have had tibbers chase down an enemy adc in a team fight and almost kill them only to switch targets for who knows what reason. Its even more frusterating when tibbers switches targets to the tank that just got lucky and last hit me, effectivly making him useless in the team fight rather then chase down the squshy low health enemies.

  4. Tibbers drop indicator is bugged/misleading. So many time i have hit that stun only to have it mysteriously whiff. Turns out the skill indicator is bugged and not displaying the proper range of the hit box. Fun.

  5. tibbers gets stuck on everything. And i mean EVERYTHING. Minions. Monsters. Walls. Allies. You name it.

All in all Annie is still a good strong champ but shes plagued with a few bugs and a shitty Tibbers Ai.

Lets hope it gets fixed soon.

Yeah the stun range was ninja nerfed I'm fairly certain. I have hundreds of games with Annie and since the update, I miss a TON of Ults. They just don't stun, don't damage, nothing. Even when I'm clearly in range (or would be in range)

Either it's nerfed or it's bugged, but it's DEFINITELY worse than before.

Annie Bot has stated this issue as well. With a player as popular as him concerned with the issue, i'm fairly certain it will get changed soon.

  1. His tooltip does not state that his health depletes fast when annie is dead
  2. If you stun someone whose attacking you but tibbers has a different target he will stand there, let the previous target go away and do nothing like he's frozen.

My favorite is when Tibbers gets stunned and he gives up attacking after the stun is over like "meh they can go" and even telling him to reattack has the same effect

I have a hard time commanding him to do ANYTHING now, press the keys to move him and he wants to go wherever

There's some interaction with Tibbers and GA --

I had a game where enraged Tibbers killed someones GA, and proceeded to chase down the blue buff. This was with 3/4 other enemy champions around. After the person revived from GA, Tibbers dropped aggro on blue, and went back to them.

I don't know how, or why to proc it, but I figured it should get added to the list.

They did have it in the Beta Testing, but there are almost always bugs on release.

I'm sure these things will be looked at and patched soon enough.

Good to point them out.

You should know by now that R controls tibbers. Ai might be bad but it mostly falls to the player and their knowledge of champ mechanics

so true

i thought it was just me, i have auto attack off, i play a lot of support fill life = sup life

When it first came out I would alt+click and tibbers wouldn't move where I wanted him to. We could be doing dragon and he'd just stand there, I'd have to alt+click dragon for him to attack it and he'd just stop attacking randomly so i'd have to alt+click again. It was really annoying, because I'd have to stare at tibbers to see when he'd stop attacking so i could make him attack it again.

I should also point out that, as far as I know, Tibbers cannot attack the inhibitors.

I suggest posting in Bug Report section, not in Gameplay. :)

You'll have a better visibility and it will be corrected faster.

It's tibbers. It doesn't need AI any better than pre 6.9 zyra plants. It still does ridiculous damage, paired with a stun at times, and it can chase you.
