Briar's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Crimson Curse (P)

Briar's attacks and abilities apply a stacking bleed that heals her for a portion of the damage it deals. Perpetually hungry, she gains increased healing based on her missing Health, but lacks innate Health Regeneration.

Playing as Evelynn

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Wait 2.5 seconds to charm

    Mark your target with Allure (W) and wait 2.5 seconds before hitting: the mark then charms them and lowers their magic resist for your combo.

  2. Save your R to finish

    Save Last Caress (R) to finish: its damage increases against enemies below 30% health, and you blink backward, untargetable.

  3. Approach in camouflage

    Approach your target unseen once you hit level 6: from then on, Demon Shade (passive) camouflages you out of combat.

  4. Farm before level 6

    Farm before level 6 rather than forcing ganks: Demon Shade (passive) only camouflages you from that level on.

Playing against Briar

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Respect her leap

    Keep your distance when Head Rush (Q) is up: her leap stuns you and lowers your armor and magic resist for the follow-up.

  2. Keep away during her frenzy

    When she casts Blood Frenzy (W), move away if you're squishy, or stand between her and your carries if you're tanky: she charges the nearest enemy.

  3. Don't fight with your back to a wall

    Don't stand with your back to a wall when she charges Chilling Scream (E): fully charged, it knocks you back and stuns you if you hit the wall.

  4. Dodge her gem

    Dodge the Certain Death (R) gem by stepping aside: it marks the first champion hit, and Briar then chases them until they die.
