You do not need to cast Awakening to regain the ability to cast Last Rites.

You can send the Maiden down a lane alone, be careful though, as she represents a large portion of your combat power.

The Maiden will attempt to assist you in a fight, so choose your targets well.

Advice to Understand How Annie Will Play

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.

Annie has a lower difficulty than Yorick. That means you don't need to be careful when arranging Annie allies to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Working together, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magical damage. When paired, these two can blast through enemies with magic damage.

In contrast, by bringing Yorick and Annie together, you will not be granting your other allies enough attack damage. We recommend you include other champions on your team that offsets this relative disparity in this pairing's abilities.
