Who Wins

  • You lose early trades pre-6 due to Briar's superior sustain from W and higher base damage on Q.
  • Post-6 you gain significant kill pressure with R engage potential, but Briar's R can match your all-in threat.

How to Trade

  • You want to poke with Q3 tornado from max range then immediately back off to avoid Briar's W heal trades.
  • Only commit to extended trades with E when you have a clear health advantage or jungle assistance.

Wave Control

  • You should push waves early to prevent Briar from sustaining freely with W on minions, but avoid overextending without vision.
  • After 6, look to freeze near your tower to set up R engages when Briar steps up.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • You must not trade in extended fights without your E safety net, as Briar's W sustain will out-heal your damage.
  • Never use R aggressively when Briar has R available, as her untargetability can completely negate your engage.
