All of your points are completely valid. Thornmail is definitely a very strong pick against this comp. What i was thinking as the ideal situation for this comp is to cc lock the high priority squishy targets, such as the adc and the support, and then clean up the tanky opponents afterwards, regardless of how tanky they get. Ofc, many things can go wrong. For janna, i would expect an insta kill on her from yasuo however, if she survives, she could most definitely turn around the fight. Lissandra sounds good as a viable source of magic damage as well as aoe cc, but i find that yasuo can bring a lot more damage, especially with his huge armour pen. Jax is a really strong champion, and would bring lots of mixed damage, allowing him to deal with the other tanks. Leesin safeguard with braum W would bring a great initate opportunity. Honestly, there are so many things that synergyze with braum's kit, and i expect him to be a top support.
