Who Wins

Pre-6, you lose the 2v2 if Annie hits level 2 first and zones with her stun threat — Lucian's short-range burst punishes any hook attempt that misses, and Annie's passive stun makes trading into your whiff lethal.
Post-6, your R adds AoE silence and knockup that can chain with Annie's R, but Lucian's E mobility and Annie's R threat mean you only win post-6 if you land Q first.

Your only winning trade pattern is landing Q on Lucian (not Annie, who is harder to hook and less punishing to miss on) and immediately following with W to close gap, then letting Ezreal follow up with E-in burst — do not engage without Ezreal in auto-attack range.
If you miss Q, disengage immediately; you have no meaningful damage to sustain a trade without the hook.

You have no wave control tools, so focus on positioning to threaten hooks rather than managing minions — stand at angles that force Lucian and Annie to respect your Q range, which naturally slows their ability to freely poke Ezreal.
Let Ezreal handle wave state; your job is to make the lane psychologically oppressive through hook threat.

Do not hook Annie — she is bait, and a missed hook into Annie's stun with Lucian nearby is a near-guaranteed kill on you or Ezreal.
Also avoid using W aggressively without a successful Q landing, as it puts you in melee range of Lucian's passive-empowered double shots with no escape.
