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 against Briar
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
1
Briar can't control her target during W — she attacks the nearest enemy. Use this to force her to focus the tank.
2
Her charged E stuns against walls: don't position with your back to a wall when Briar is nearby.
3
Grievous Wounds massively reduces her sustain, which is her only survivability — buy it early.
4
Her R is global but predictable — dodge the missile sideways or Flash.
