League of Legends: Why You Should Play Braum

Braum's Unbreakable - One of the Strongest Shields in LoL

Braum's Unbreakable (E)offers a shield unlike any of his fellowsupport champions. Unbreakable intercepts all projectiles coming toward him, causing them to hit him instead and then be destroyed. The damage of thefirst attack will be completely negated, and the damage of thesubsequent attacks will be heavily reduced.

Braum's massive shield, especially pairedtogether with his W,is the perfect ability to protect your carries from incoming damage.A similar type of shieldcan only be found in Yasuo's Windwall and Samira's Blade Whirl.

Even though some players are unhappy with the fact that Braum's shield doesn’t negate all damage dealt to the shield, like Yasuo and Samira,Braum's shield is still very strong.

Unlike Yasuo, Braum's shield can be moved and therefore be used both aggressively and to escape. It alsolasts way longer than Samira's W. Lastly, Braum is a tank and can take way more damage compared to both Samira and Yasuo.

The Most Wholesome Champion in League of Legends

I think no one can disagree with this one. When you go to check out Braum's lore, the sentence that introduces Braum just summarizes the champion perfectly:

Blessed with massive biceps and an even bigger heart.

Perfect Kit Against Engage Supports

WhatBraum lacks in strengthagainst poke champions, he makes up for in his dominanceagainst engage supportslike Leona, Blitzcrank and Pyke.

All ofBraum's abilities are perfect to avoidany type of engageon his carry and allow them to either escape or to, at least, win a trade.

The Epitome of a Warden Support

A Warden is a defensive tank with the job of keeping their allies safe and creating ways for their carries to deal with the enemy without getting caught. Wardens might not get as much time in the spotlight as the vanguard supports, but they are often the difference makers in certain matchups.

With Braum, Riot has created a champion fitting the Warden category to its core.So if you feel like Wardens Supports have always been more your style. Braum is the champ for you.

Braum Has No Boring Skins

With Braum's massive shield and infamous mustache, Riot has been given the perfect template to create many fun skins. Now, skins might not bring much to the gameplay itself, but they can definitely make the game more fun and help you cope with the usual struggle that is Solo Queue.

We know that Braum is currently not at his strongest, but we still believe he offers a very fun and unique playstyleworthy of trying out. He is also still a good pick againstsupports like Leona and Blitzcrank.
