Battle Princess Annie

After spamming 90 games with Battle Princess Annie this month, I can confidently say this skin completely changes how her kit feels in teamfights. The Q animation is noticeably smoother when last hitting cannon minions, and her W cone actually matches the visual better than base Annie or even Annie-versary. But what really sold me was how clean the stun indicator looks above enemy health bars with this skin.

The ult is where Battle Princess Annie really shines though. During a baron fight yesterday, I flash ulted their fed Jinx and the Tibbers drop felt way more responsive than usual. Maybe it's the sparkly effects, but I swear the bear moves faster when chasing down targets. Her E shield is probably the weakest change since it's just a pink bubble, but at least enemies can see when you're about to stun them without squinting at your passive bar. Compared to other Annie skins like Hextech or Frostfire, this one definitely has the clearest animations for both you and your opponents.

Is Battle Princess Annie worth it at 1350 RP? If you're an Annie main who plays her regularly, absolutely. The smoother animation cancels alone make comboing feel less clunky, especially when you need to burst someone before they flash away. It's not pay to win since enemies can still see everything coming, but the visual clarity helps you land those game winning ults more consistently.

My experience with Battle Princess Annie convinced me to stop rotating between her other skins. Should you buy Battle Princess Annie if you only play her occasionally? Probably wait for a sale, but for anyone who wants their Annie gameplay to feel crispy, this skin delivers.
