Key Tips:

1. Play reactively rather than aggressively - counter-engage when enemies initiate
2. Stay close to your ADC to provide protection with your shield (E)
3. Conserve E (Unbreakable) for extended trades and all-ins to preserve mana
4. Focus on peeling for your carry in teamfights

The defensive playstyle and strong peel capabilities make Braum particularly effective against engage supports while struggling against poke-heavy champions.
