Who Wins

Pre-6, you and Karma win the 2v2 because Karma's E shield absorbs Jhin's fourth-shot burst, her W root punishes Braum's Q engage, and your range advantage with rockets lets you poke freely without Braum being able to reach you.
Post-6, you still favor the matchup because Karma's R amplifies her W root into a kill setup on Jhin, and your R can execute low-health targets across the map.

Your best pattern is to let Karma W-root Braum or Jhin first, then switch to rockets to poke from outside Braum's Q range — once Braum burns his Q on a bad angle, you can step in with minigun for sustained damage without fear of his passive stacking.
Avoid extended minigun trades when Braum has Q available, as he can stack passive quickly at close range.

You want to freeze the wave near your tower when possible, as this denies Braum his Q-onto-minion engage angles and forces Jhin to overextend to farm, making him vulnerable to Karma W roots.
If you cannot freeze, slow-push to crash a large wave and back safely, denying Jhin reset windows.

Do not use chompers reactively after Braum has already closed the gap — place them proactively in the path of his Q trajectory or at chokepoints before he engages, because once he is on top of you the chomper arm time is too slow to save you.
