Who Wins
- Pre-6, you do not win the 2v2 aggressively — Poppy's Q poke hurts you in melee range and Lucian's burst can chunk Tristana before you stack passive, so your role is defensive: shield Tristana with W and wait for Lucian to overextend.
- Post-6, Poppy's R is a direct counter to your positioning, so you must stay close to Tristana and be ready to W-shield her the moment Poppy charges.
Synergy & Trading
- Your best trading pattern is to let Tristana apply the first passive stack with her bomb auto, then use E to jump to her and stack passive quickly — once the stun lands, Tristana can W-jump in for a full combo while Lucian and Poppy are CC'd.
Wave Control/Roaming
- You should not roam — Tristana is vulnerable to Lucian's all-in without you present, and your roam success rate is low because your engage requires Tristana's follow-up to be effective, meaning solo roams rarely convert without your ADC.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Do not use W to block Poppy's Q poke repeatedly at the cost of your mana — burning W on minor poke leaves you without the shield when Poppy actually commits her full engage, and running out of mana as Braum means you have no defensive tools for the rest of the trade.
