View detailed statistics below: items, runes, and counter builds for Shaco Support vs Braum Support in patch 15.24 (25.24), including win rates and pick rates. With proper study, this can improve your chances of victory up to 70%+ in this matchup.

Statistical Matchup Analysis

While Shaco remains a niche pick (1.4% pick rate, 37th place out of 52 Support champions), Braum dominates the current meta support with 5.8% popularity. Mastering this matchup is crucial for Shaco players - you'll face Braum in the majority of your games. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Arcane Comet + Manaflow Band combination (57.1% win rate) plus optimal itemization Umbral Glaive, Voltaic Cyclosword, The Collector, and Ionian Boots of Lucidity boosts your chances from 48.9% to 70%+ - potentially game-changing.

Vision deficit: Struggling in both the matchup and vision control (0.81 vs 0.86 wards/min) demands defensive warding and heavy jungle coordination. Damage doesn't equal wins: Shaco outputs more damage (683 vs 343/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Complete dominance by Braum: leads in both matchup win rate (51.1%) and KDA (2.90 vs 2.40, 10th vs 31st place). Shaco players need exceptional preparation to overcome this counter-pick.

How to Beat Braum as Shaco (Support)

Despite the slight difference in effectiveness, in the Shaco versus Braum matchup as support, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

The magic damage that Shaco 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.

Consider the excellent vision control demonstrated by Braum, ranking 31st (versus 42nd for Shaco) in ward placement among supports. This means the opponent provides better map vision for their team. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.9 versus 2.4) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Shaco Support versus Braum Support matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Shaco 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.

Shaco tips:

  • Using Deceive over terrain can help you make a clean escape.
  • Try getting items with on-hit effects. These will also benefit your Hallucination clone.
  • Backstab's damage can be increased with increased Critical Damage effects like Infinity Edge.

Playing Against Braum

  • Braum must land Winter's Bite or a basic attack to start Concussive Blows. If you get marked, exit combat range before getting hit 3 more times to avoid the stun.
  • Braum's ultimate has a long cast time, use that extra time to dodge. Walking over the frozen ground left behind will slow you, position so that you don't need to cross it.
  • Unbreakable gives Braum extremely strong directional defense, either wait until it is down or outposition the ability.
