Damage doesn't equal wins: Maokai outputs more damage (443 vs 343/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup.

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 Maokai deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Braum deals primarily magic damage (71.32%), additional magic resistance may be required.
An important advantage of Maokai is superior vision control (ranked 29th among supports) (versus 31st for Braum), which provides better map control and safety for the team in important map areas. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.9 versus 2.4) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Maokai player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Braum 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.
