Annie's to the "Big Six", after being previously deemed fine. However, I imagine some of you will dislike their goals.

They like Annie's reliable, instant engage. What they don't like is:
 * How her innate is telegraphed. I imagine she'll have a stack counter particle, maybe similar to Jhin's innate.
 * How her E is only good for generating stacks. I get the impression they plan to make it stronger rather than a new ability, though.
 * They want Tibbers to be less disposable when active, moving some of the burst damage into Annie's persistent threat. Maybe they'll take a cue from Doom Bot's and give Tibber's attacks an AOE knock back.
