Why can't I win games with a fed Annie? LOL.

I just had a game where I was Annie vs. Fizz, literally got the entire team on my back but no one will peel or defend for me. In the final team fight, my frontline Gragas and Irelia and Bard literally keep running backwards trying to get behind me so that the enemy team doesn't "hit them first." I just don't get it. Aren't tanks supposed to tank for you? When I play a tanky jungler, I INITIATE FIRST SO I GET FOCUSED or PEEL FOR THE PERSON DOING DAMAGE.

I feel like I should be able to carry these games but our ADC trist was doing literally NO damage. I've never seen an ADC do so little damage, not being asinine just being real. Then the entire enemy team just gets to build magic resist because there is no other threat. I get these kind of games all the time and not sure what "I" need to change to start winning them.

When I play Annie by mid game I almost always flash initiate and kill the opposing mid laner or ADC before the fight even begins. If you still lose while doing this youre team is REALLY bad and youre pretty unlucky. What do you build? I normally go RoA--->Rabadons---->(finish boots)---->Zhonya. By the time I get the needless rod for raba your about able to global any of the squishies. Also, I build distortion on my boots pretty early. That helps a lot too.

I go Ring, Codex, RoA, Boots, Rabadons, Void, Chalice or Morello depending on team, and Hourglass.

Relying on your team-mates to not suck is a risky move in Solo-Q.

Do everything yourself. In that case, build tank and initiate.

Bad ults?

If you build her pure damage you're not gonna do much. Personally I love item 3027 and item 3116 in my builds, gives you bulk without sacrificing a lot of AP. Plus the slow aura from Tibbers is pretty nice.

HAHAHAHAHA!

I find it funny people think because annie is fed it is an instant win.

Here is a secret. She is still manageable
