why play annie support over taric?

Annie can do an AoE stun with her ult. Annie can spam her ult whenever she feels like it Annie can do a burst with a stun

Taric can only stun one person and it has more cool down time

tariks stun has travel time, so you can use an esacape like Corkies W befor getting stuned, preventing followup. If anny uses her passive for W or Ult, she not only can stun on aoe, but also instant with no traveltime or casttime.

Because if you get kills and eventually get fed as Annie support, you get promoted to a carry and can carry the team.

And to be honest, if that happens, the adc doesn't really care. A dead team means free farming, so the support did their job just fine.

Annie has the potential to stun up to 5 people, along with do massive damage late. Taric's only bonus is his utility in his aura

Teamfight

Yea they both have stuns, but Taric can't stun the entire team like annie can while dealing tons of damage. His armor gains are actually really small in terms of benefit in todays league with many armor pen items being normal and really early buys.

His heal is actually really crappy. There is very little reason to play him for the heal. Its like saying that you play ali for the heal. Annie will negate this with 1 Q or if you are positioning poorly then she can get 1 W and deal more damage than 2 heals.

every thing every one posted is right but the easiest answer is Annie is OP as fuck while taric need a buff real bad funny thing about that is not to long ago taric was top 3 supports then the items changed (again) and braum came out now picking taric in a game people treat you like they do if you pick urgot

(Disclaimer: I do love taric and urgot but they both need a buff)

dat 1.1 sec stun on lvl 1 e
