Guide to Synergizing Annie and Akshan

Tips for Playing as Annie with Akshan

Molten Shield is a good spell to cast to work up to Annie's stun, so sometimes it's beneficial to grab at least 1 rank in it early.

Striking killing blows on minions with Disintegrate enables Annie to farm extremely well early in the game.

Storing a stun for use with her ultimate can turn the tide of a team fight.

Advice to Understand How Akshan Will Play

Raising an eyebrow in the face of danger, Akshan fights evil with dashing charisma, righteous vengeance, and a conspicuous lack of shirts. He is highly skilled in the art of stealth combat, able to evade the eyes of his enemies and reappear when they least expect him. With a keen sense of justice and a legendary death-reversing weapon, he rights the wrongs of Runeterra's many scoundrels while living by his own moral code: “Don't be an ass.”

Is Annie better when played alongside Akshan?

There is no one best companion for Annie that will always be her ideal teammate. Yet, Akshan is a very typical ally for Annie. By being on the same team as Annie, they raises their win rate by 0.9% to 50.2%. This demonstrates that there is a weak bond between Annie and Akshan that results in them performing stronger together than alone.

Akshan has a much lower diffuclty than Annie. That means Annie players don't need to be careful when arranging Akshan allies to play with, as they will have to have a much lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Working cooperatively, Annie players should see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to provide utility and CC for your side. Combined, these champs may be able to carry with the power of their abilities.

Conversely, by grouping Annie and Akshan together, you may not be providing your side very much anti-tank damage dealing potential. We recommend you have other champs on your team that neutralizes this gap in their kit.

Regardless of the skill of your Akshan ally, you should focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
