During the laning phase, maintain at least one minion between you and Braum to prevent his Q stun. Avoid standing near minions to prevent his W gap-closer, and bait out his Unbreakable (E) before committing to trades.

Best Counters:

  • Taric
  • Vel'Koz
  • Senna
  • Sona
  • Brand

Braum counter tips

Braum counter tips

Key Strategies:

  • Harass Braum early when he lacks sustain
  • Spread out in teamfights to avoid multi-champion knockups from his ultimate
  • Set him behind early before he becomes too tanky
  • Trade when his E (Unbreakable) is on cooldown
  • Avoid direct 5v5 teamfights, focus on picks instead

Power Spike Awareness:

  • Level 6: Ultimate increases kill threat significantly
  • E (Unbreakable) timing: Wait for shield to expire before trading
  • Late game: Becomes increasingly tanky with better ADC peel

Combat Tips:

  • Use short trades to bait out defensive abilities
  • Position away from minions to prevent his W engage
  • Focus on poking while his defensive cooldowns are down
  • Keep track of his passive stacks in trades
  • Maintain proper spacing to avoid his engage potential
