Statistical Matchup Analysis

Balanced meta clash: Annie (2.9%, 33rd place out of 61 Mid champions) regularly faces Aurelion Sol (1.9%, 37th place). Both champions hold solid meta positions, making this matchup knowledge a direct path to climbing and improving your win rate. Surprising upset: Despite Annie's higher tier rating, Aurelion Sol wins 50.9% of encounters. This suggests Aurelion Sol's kit specifically counters Annie's playstyle, overriding general meta strength - approach this matchup with extra caution. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Electrocute + Cheap Shot combination (50.4% win rate) plus optimal itemization Malignance, Stormsurge, Zhonya's Hourglass, and Sorcerer's Shoes boosts your chances from 49.1% to 75.0% - potentially game-changing.

Survive and scale: Annie faces both matchup (49.07%) and farming disadvantages (6.51 vs 7.16/min). With a 0.65 CS/min deficit, prioritize safe farming and jungle assistance. Damage doesn't equal wins: Annie outputs more damage (782 vs 748/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Complete dominance by Aurelion Sol: leads in both matchup win rate (50.9%) and KDA (2.60 vs 2.20, 12th vs 42nd place). Annie players need exceptional preparation to overcome this counter-pick.

How to Beat Aurelion Sol as Annie (Mid)

Despite the slight difference in effectiveness, in the Annie versus Aurelion Sol matchup in the mid lane, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Aurelion Sol, ranking 14th (versus 33rd for Annie) in farming efficiency among champions in this role.

Annie tips:

  • Storing a stun for use with her ultimate can turn the tide of a team fight.
  • Striking killing blows on minions with Disintegrate enables Annie to farm extremely well early in the game.
  • 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.
