How to Beat Nami as Braum (Support)

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.

The magic damage that Braum deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Nami deals primarily magic damage (84.96%), additional magic resistance may be required.

Consider the excellent vision control demonstrated by Nami, ranking 25th (versus 31st for Braum) in ward placement among supports. This means the opponent provides better map vision for their team. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (3.4 versus 2.9) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Braum Support versus Nami Support matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Braum player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Nami player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

Braum tips:

  • Work with your allies to stack Concussive Blows, encourage them to basic attack marked targets.
  • Leap in front of squishy friends and shield them from projectiles with Unbreakable.
  • Glacial Fissure leaves a powerful slow zone, position it well to split teamfights and slow the enemy approach.

Playing Against Nami

  • Aqua Prison is a very powerful ability with a long cooldown, take advantage of the situation if Nami misses this ability.
  • Tidal Wave has a very long range but travels slowly, be aware of when it is coming your way as you can move out of its path.
  • Try to avoid fighting an opponent affected by Tidecaller's Blessing, it lasts a short duration so waiting it out can help you greatly.
