1.Stack your passive to 3 stacks, then hold Q — it shows 3 stacks to enemies but the Q itself will proc the stun
2.Flash Tibbers (R) with a stun ready is Annie's signature play; look for multi-person stuns in teamfights
3.Use Q to last-hit minions as it refunds mana on kill — this lets you stack your passive for free
4.Molten Shield (E) can be cast on Tibbers to speed him up and make him tankier when chasing
5.Annie is strongest during mid-game when she has her first item and R is available; force fights at objectives
