Yuumi vs Braum Counter Pick

Unbreakable defines this pairing more than any stat line. Braum’s shield intercepts projectiles and destroys them, and Yuumi’s damage output travels as a projectile through Prowling Projectile. Over 1,119 games on patch 16.13.1, she posts 40.0%.

• Durability: Braum opens at 610 health with 35 armor and finishes at 2,514 health and 120 armor. Yuumi opens at 500 with 25 armor and ends at 1,673.
• Damage type: his output is mixed, so neither an armor nor a magic resist purchase fully answers Winter’s Bite feeding Concussive Blows, which stuns once four stacks land.
• Reach: 125 attack range against 425 looks favourable for Yuumi until Stand Behind Me lets Braum leap to any allied champion or minion and erase it.

His difficulty rating of 3 keeps the execution floor low, and his value never depends on hitting anything: armor and magic resist for a nearby ally arrive on landing, and Glacial Fissure knocks up everyone in a line. Yuumi’s answer is speed rather than damage. Zoomies passes move speed and attack speed to her partner, Feline Friendship restores health when she connects, and trades are best angled through minions where the shield cannot cover every direction at once. Braum moves at 335 against her 330 and holds 55 attack damage at level 1 to her 49, so walking away from him is not a plan either. Braum’s stat curve is collected on his champion entry.
