Braum/Strategy

Braum works well with Ashe, Caitlyn, and Ezreal. He struggles against Zyra, Vayne, and Lulu.

Works well with

Ashe:

By slowing her enemies, Ashe gives Braum a much easier target for his Winter’s Bite casts. Similarly, the two can pair Glacial Fissure and Enchanted Crystal Arrow together to utterly paralyze an enemy and all but guarantee a level six kill.

Caitlyn:

With her unrivalled range, Caitlyn’s best at capitalizing on Braum’s passive, Concussive Blows. With clever timing, Braum can also use Stand Behind Me as Caitlyn fires 90 Caliber Net, helping both escape and dive when needed.

Ezreal:

Ezreal’s Mystic Shot applies on-hit effects, meaning once Braum’s applied Concussive Blows, Ezreal can add further stacks from distance with his Q. The sheer threat of this is enough to force most enemies away from farming.

Struggles against

Zyra:

Zyra boasts a kit that handily bypasses Braum’s defenses. By planting seeds behind him, she’s able to negate Unbreakable with Deadly Bloom. Grasping Roots also snares Braum, preventing him from protecting his marksman with Stand Behind Me.

Vayne:

Vayne’s got a few tricks up her sleeve to assert her dominance over Braum. Tumble’s low cooldown allows her to dodge Winter’s Bite with relative ease, while Condemn throws Braum back even when he’s shielding with Unbreakable, giving Vayne access to her enemy marksman.

Lulu:

Lulu can out-position Unbreakable by casting Help, Pix! on Braum or his marksman before firing off Glitterlance to hurt and slow both.
