Annie vs Kassadin

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Use medium lane pressure early to deny Kassadin safe farm and delay his scaling.
Focus on landing (R) picks followed by (Q) and (W) burst to control lane tempo.
Conserve mana to avoid forced pushes that expose you to Kassadin's all-ins.

Trading pattern

Trade aggressively with (Q) + (W) when your passive stun is ready to lock Kassadin.
Punish Kassadin if he wastes (R) without mana or cooldown to escape.
Respect (R) mobility and avoid extended trades post-6 unless you can stun first.

Danger windows

Kassadin is dangerous post-6 with (R) for burst and escape; avoid overcommitting without stun ready.
Beware if Kassadin has multiple (R) stacks and mana for repeated trades.
Vulnerable when forced to push with (W) and running low on mana, exposing you to all-ins.

Early game

Punish Kassadin's low early agency by pressuring him before level 6.
Avoid pushing hard with (W) early to maintain mana and lane presence.
Use (E) shield to absorb Kassadin's magic poke and prepare for trades.

Power spikes

Level 6 unlocks (R) for strong pick potential and burst; use it to force fights.
First completed AP item boosts burst damage, increasing threat on Kassadin's health.
Kassadin's level 6 (R) grants mobility; play cautiously and track his cooldowns.

Win conditions

Secure early kills or summoner spells by landing (R)-initiated combos before Kassadin hits 6.
Deny Kassadin safe farm and force defensive (R) use to delay his scaling.
Use (R) to roam and create pressure elsewhere if Kassadin plays safe post-6.
