Annie craps on Fizz and sometimes LB. This isn't season 3 where Fizz can trade with Q+W then E out. Fizz would get bullied hard in lane. Another beauty of Annie is the flexibility of her stun. If Fizz has E, she would stun with W/R as it is instant and hard to predict. If he can't use E, she can use Q for a more reliable stun. Also her bursting power is just as strong as Fizz and LB, so they have to be wise in going in. The only time they can stand a chance against Annie is by catching her without her stun, but she can just stay under tower, last hit with Q and have it back in no time. Also, I'm pretty sure Annie's immobility isn't a problem for her if she is facing Fizz, Zed and LB as they all have to be within range of her full combo for them to be able to deal damage. Assassins can win against her, but they're not reliable.

In my opinion the best way to fight an Annie is to use a long range mage. While some say Annie destroys them, the opposite can also be the same. They bully her really hard and her only reliable way of getting to them is through flash. However, the mage needs to have barrier/exhaust/cleanse and some MR (rushing abyssal or qss is more than enough) as her flash combo is still not something to disrespect.
