Who Wins
- Pre-6 you have the advantage through superior range, W poke, and Braum's passive follow-up on any Thresh hook attempts.
- Post-6 you lose significant kill pressure since their combined ultimates create much higher burst potential than your utility-focused R.
Synergy & Trading
- Use W to poke when Thresh is out of position, then follow up with autos while Braum moves forward to threaten passive stacks.
- Always maintain maximum range and use your superior attack range to trade favorably before backing off.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Maintain slow pushes to keep the wave in favorable positions while using W to clear and poke simultaneously.
- Avoid hard pushing unless you're recalling, as Aphelios with certain weapons can match your waveclear while being safer.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't get caught by Thresh hooks when Braum can't immediately bodyblock or when your E vision doesn't cover flanking angles.
- Getting hooked with Braum out of position often results in death due to Aphelios' burst potential.
