Guide to Synergizing Irelia and Annie

Tips for Playing as Irelia with Annie

Defiant Dance is not interrupted by crowd control, try timing it for incoming disables.

Flawless Duet does not have a maximum travel distance, try using it in creative ways.

Use Bladesurge to cover great distances by targeting low life minions on your way to champion targets.

Advice to Understand How Annie Will Play

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.

Striking killing blows on minions with Disintegrate enables Annie to farm extremely well early in the game.

Storing a stun for use with her ultimate can turn the tide of a team fight.
