How to play Braum
Braum is a tank who can play in the Duo Lane as a Support. Braum is one of the best peel supports in the game; with his abilities and passive, he's able to disengage from any enemy engagement. However, Braum can also play aggressively, slowing and knocking up enemies so your team can follow up. This makes him a flexible champion that fits multiple scenarios in a game. Unbreakable is a unique ability that allows Braum to block enemy auto attacks and abilities, making it a crucial ability when trying to protect your Marksman.
Braum's Abilities
Concussive Blows (Passive)
Braum's attacks apply Concussive Blows for a few seconds. Once the first stack is applied, allied champions attacks also stack Concussive Blows. Upon reaching 4 stacks, the enemy is stunned for a second and takes magic damage.
Concussive blows can be applied to multiple targets at once, so you always want to attack every enemy at least once, so your team can benefit the most from his passive. Winter's Bite can also apply a stack of Concussive Blows.
Winter's Bite (1)
Braum launches ice that deals magic damage and slows enemies hit for a few seconds while applying a stack of Concussive Blows.
Winter's Bite is Braum's way of starting a fight from a small distance. When hitting an enemy, it makes it easier for you and your allies to follow up with attacks that can also help stack Braum's passive. Be aware that Winter's Bite does not go through minions, so make sure nothing is standing between you and the enemy.
Stand Behind Me (2)
Braum leaps to an ally, granting himself and his ally armor and magic resist for a few seconds on arrival.
Stand Behind Me helps Braum reach his allies to peel for them. This will put Braum between his ally and the enemy champion, which is a great position to use Winter's Bite + Unbreakable. Stand Behind Me can also be used to jump to ally minions. This can be used aggressively during the laning phase to get an advantage.
Unbreakable (3)
Braum raises his shield, intercepting projectiles for a few seconds, negating the first instance of damage from whichever direction he faces and taking reduced damage afterwards. Whilst Braum's shield is raised, he also gains movement speed.
Unbreakable helps Braum protect his allies by blocking big Area of Effect abilities and auto attacks. Unbreakable can also block enemies from attacking towers and minions — a neat little trick to tilt your enemies.
Glacial Fissure (Ultimate)
Braum slams the ground and opens a fissure, dealing magic damage and knocking up enemies for a second. The Fissure slows enemies and lasts a few seconds.
Glacial Fissure is an excellent ability during teamfights for the knockup, slows and zone control. It is also a good disengage tool to help peel against enemies that jump on top of you or your allies.
Braum Build Breakdown
Redemption has great synergy with Braum. Since Braum will always be close to ally champions using Stand Behind Me and Unbreakable, the healing will benefit your team, especially during teamfights.
Radiant Virtue heals Braum and nearby allies when using his ultimate Glacial Fissure. This helps Braum protect his carries, keeping them alive while they take damage.
Protector's Vow also has incredible synergy with Braum, giving a shield to his closest ally when either you or them take any damage.
For runes we have:
Braum doesn't have many Keystone options. Glacial Augment is the best option to add slows on top of his crowd control and reduce the enemy's damage.
Braum has a lot of ways to proc Font of Life, especially if you hit Winter's Bite. This can help Braum and his team heal over time.
This row depends on your lane matchup. Bone Plating is a solid rune in a melee matchup that can do a lot of burst damage.
Second Wind is excellent in poke lanes, which is good for Braum as he suffers in these matchups.
Overgrowth's extra health will help Braum survive longer, which is important when playing as a front-line tank.
When vs Crowd Control Perseverance works great with Braum, giving him more tank stats to survive.
Ingenious Hunter reduces the cooldown of Braum's core items, Redemption and Protectors' Vow and Radiant Virtue. This allows him to protect his team more often during fights.
Flash is a must to take on Braum. It can help you survive and be good when you need to keep your team alive using Flash with Stand Behind Me.
Since Braum will always stand close to ally champions, Heal is another way to keep your allies alive.
Early Game
In the early game, you want to use Winter's Bite to poke enemy champions. When your ally is close enough, they can follow up with auto attacks to help stack Braum's Passive and proc Font of Line. Make sure you are always keeping your Carry safe and keep an eye out for the enemy jungler. Use Unbreakable to block any incoming damage and abilities, and Stand Behind Me to jump to your Carry to give them armor and magic resistance.
Late Game
During the late game, you must stay with your team and help them during team fights. Prioritise keeping your allies alive and protecting them using everything you have available. Roaming around with your jungle can be a way for your team to get an advantage. Catching enemies with Winter's Bite + Glacial Fissure allows your team to follow up to finish the job.
Conclusion
Braum is a very safe and beginner-friendly champion to play. If you want to prioritize a support that's great at keeping your marksman and allies alive, then Braum is the pick for you.
