User blog comment:Fistful of Force/AvS Pt 1: Annie Support Burst Potential/@comment-12314620-20131125184533

While trying to reach you final conclusion I'd like to point out that Annie has 625 aa range. From common adc:s only Caitlyn (if I recall correctly) has bigger base aa range at 650, Ashe for example has range of 600. The silence messes up Annies combo sure but she still adds a lot of early pressure on lane which she can use aa:s between Sorakas heals to whittle away your carry's health. Also the constant threat of targeted stun is something Sorakas silence can't negate.
