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 Master Yi

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Dodge with Alpha Strike

    Cast Alpha Strike (Q) to dodge a spell or a burst: you're untargetable during the strike, and your autos lower its cooldown.

  2. Meditate to tank damage

    Cast Meditate (W) to tank a burst mid-teamfight: you take less damage, heal more at low health, and the time left on Highlander (R) is paused.

  3. Activate Highlander to chase

    Activate Highlander (R) to chase: you gain move speed and attack speed, and slows no longer affect you.

  4. Chain your kills

    Chain kills in teamfights: each takedown lowers the remaining cooldown of your basic spells, and extends Highlander (R) if it's active.

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.
