How to Beat Neeko as Braum (Support)

The Braum versus Neeko matchup as support is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.

The magic damage that Braum deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Neeko deals primarily magic damage (87.19%), additional magic resistance may be required.

An important advantage of Braum is superior vision control (ranked 31st among supports) (versus 47th for Neeko), which provides better map control and safety for the team in important map areas. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (2.2 versus 2.9) suggests they are less effective in team fights.

Key aspects of the Braum Support versus Neeko Support matchup

Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Braum player to maintain constant pressure on Neeko, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.

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 Neeko

  • Standing behind minions against Neeko is very dangerous as Tangle-Barbs become stronger.
  • Pop Blossom's warning visuals are invisible if Neeko is disguised.
