Guide to Synergizing Braum and Swain

Tips for Playing as Braum with Swain

Glacial Fissure leaves a powerful slow zone, position it well to split teamfights and slow the enemy approach.

Leap in front of squishy friends and shield them from projectiles with Unbreakable.

Work with your allies to stack Concussive Blows, encourage them to basic attack marked targets.

Advice to Understand How Swain Will Play

While laning, try to use Death's Hand's piercing damage to damage opponents from a safe distance.

Vision of Empire is quite difficult to land on its own, look for skirmishes around the map where enemies may be distracted or crowd controlled so you can land it more easily.

If you're having trouble rooting an enemy with Nevermove, try throwing it at opponents when they are near their minions so the explosion surprises them.

Demonic Ascension may make Swain very hard to kill but he's pretty easy to get away from. Try building items that can slow opponents to keep them in range if their mobility is overwhelming.
