Guide to Countering Braum as Jayce

Tips for Playing as Jayce against Braum

For increased range and damage, try casting Shock Blast through the Acceleration Gate.

If you find yourself taking lots of damage, try using Jayce's Hammer Stance, as it grants you additional defenses.

Be sure to switch stances often. It will enhance your attacks and grant you quick bursts of speed.

Advice to Win Against Braum

Unbreakable gives Braum extremely strong directional defense, either wait until it is down or outposition the ability.

Braum must land Winter's Bite or a basic attack to start Concussive Blows. If you get marked, exit combat range before getting hit 3 more times to avoid the stun.

Braum's ultimate has a long cast time, use that extra time to dodge. Walking over the frozen ground left behind will slow you, position so that you don't need to cross it.
