Strength by game phase

Braum's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Concussive Blows (P)

Braum's basic attacks apply Concussive Blows. Once the first stack is applied, ally basic attacks also stack Concussive Blows. Upon reaching 4 stacks, the target is stunned and takes magic damage. For the next few seconds they cannot receive new stacks, but take bonus magic damage from Braum's attacks.

Playing as Morgana

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Start with your Q

    Look for Dark Binding (Q) early on: the first enemy hit is rooted, giving your carry time to catch them.

  2. W under the rooted target

    Place Tormented Shadow (W) under the target of Dark Binding (Q): rooted, they take the whole zone, whose damage grows with their missing health.

  3. Shield right before the CC

    Cast Black Shield (E) on an ally right before CC hits them: while it holds, it blocks disabling and immobilizing CC and absorbs magic damage.

  4. Stay in range of your chains

    After Soul Shackles (R), stay in range of the chained enemies: those who haven't broken their chain by the end are damaged and stunned.

Playing against Braum

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Back off before the 4th stack

    Back off when you have Concussive Blows (passive) stacks on you: his allies' autos add stacks too, and the 4th stuns you.

  2. Isolate him from his allies

    Catch him when he's far from his allies: Stand Behind Me (W) only leaps to an ally, minions included, and without one nearby he has no dash.

  3. Don't shoot into his shield

    Don't shoot into Unbreakable (E): it intercepts your projectiles. Go around it, use AoE spells, or wait for him to lower his shield.

  4. Stay out of his fissure's line

    Don't line up with your allies in front of him when he has Glacial Fissure (R): it hits every enemy along its line and around him with a knock-up.
