Annie is what happens when a Champion Unit decides to turn every spell into a threat.
In Riftbound TCG’s Noxus lineup, where pressure is everything and timing wins games, Annie fits like fire to fuel.
She does not need setup. She does not need protection. The moment she lands, the damage curve tilts.
Gameplay / Cool Mechanics
The ability is simple. “Your spells and abilities deal one bonus damage.”
That means every burn spell, every ping effect, every passive trigger that does damage now does more.
One extra point may not sound like much, but in practice it changes everything.
Your removal now hits out of range. Your burn spells close faster. That awkward two damage board clear that left something behind now finishes the job.
Even reactive abilities that usually just soften up units start trading up. Annie does not need to attack or activate. She just has to exist.
That passive buff stacks with pressure and adds weight to every card you play afterward.
She costs five and comes in at four power. That is not cheap, but the value is immediate. You drop Annie, and the opponent has one turn to fix it. If they do not, the game shifts in your favor.
She is best in burn control decks that use spells to manage the board while setting up a closer. She also plays well in aggressive red builds that want their damage to add up faster.
Ember Volley, Molten Recoil, Cracklight Array—they all get better with Annie watching.
Visuals
The artwork tells you everything. Annie stands calm in front of open flame, Tibbers barely visible beside her.
She looks over her shoulder, match in hand, like she knows what comes next and is already bored of waiting.
Her smile is trouble. The reds and oranges push the heat. The shadows make her pop. It is not chaos. It is control through fire.
Pull Rate and Value Speculation
Set Number: OGS 001 of 024
Rarity: Champion
Foil Status: Foil confirmed
Alternate Art: None revealed
Overnumbered: Not announced
Annie opens the Original Gold Set and sets the tone for Noxus. Being a champion with a strong passive effect means she is not just a collector pull. She is a deck piece.
If red burn control shows up in early metas, Annie will follow it there. Expect foil demand to spike quickly once lists lock in.
If we get an alternate with Tibbers fully revealed or a post-burn background, it becomes a collector chase instantly.
Annie from Riftbound TCG is not subtle. She makes every damage card hit harder and every decision more dangerous.
If you are building anything that uses red to control or end games, this is the piece you build around.
