Ultimate Hat Tibbers Interaction

Hey Rito!!

Us Annie mains are feeling like we got the wrong end of the stick with the ultimate hat rune. With the rune you can get your ult down to a 60% cd reduction, which is great.

Unfortunately this means if tibbers is alive, the ult is back up before he has timed out (he last for 45secs, lvl 3 ult cd is somewhere in the 30s). Of course you can send him into a tower or an enemy to "excecute" him. Bht that's annoying and inpractical if you're not near any of that. It also then feels like you give the enemy a 'free' 50 gold + exp.

What would be nice is some sort of excecute mechanic, where we can auto kill our bear if we want to recast it. Idk how you'd implement that, maybe even a unbinded command like the vision ping. Maybe even HAVE two bears up at once!? (That wouldn't make a lot of sence tho). Anyway idk just thought I'd ask since at this point the ultimate hat isn't really viable at all for annie and it seems a little unfair.

Or, you could just not take ultimate hat because it doesn't synergize with her ult? You've got 2 other options if it's your primary keystone, 7 other options if it's secondary. I never expected Annie would need Ultimate Hat to begin with. Taking it on her is a waste

If you're not near an enemy or tower, you don't need to cast R anyway...? If you really have e to get rid of him, just use him to clear some jungle camps.

I don't see how having >100% uptime on one of the strongest in-game summons is a downside, especially since Annie is the only sunmmon-ultimate champion (as far as I can tell) who gets the privilege of having the CD tick down while the summon is up - Yorick and Ivern wish they had that problem.

I know the actual active is a valuable spell/nuke blah blah blah, but having Tibbers up is hardly a tragedy. Also, Tibbers only gives gold on death (and only if last hit), not xp.
