How to counter Briar

Briar is a duelist who heals enormously when she enters frenzy, chasing rivals out of control, and brings a global initiation with a charm and fear. Her weakness is that she's squishy under frenzy and depends on lifesteal, so you stop her with armor, crowd control that pins her, or champions that tank her damage.

  • Rammus — His armor makes Briar's auto-attacks bounce off, and his taunt pins her; her frenzy is useless.
  • Jax — His E dodges Briar's auto-attacks, her main source of healing and damage, and he out-duels her.
