What makes Briar dangerous
Briar's W sends her into a frenzy that attacks the nearest target with huge lifesteal, her E channels a scream that heals and can stun into walls, and her ultimate flies across the map and forces her into a kill-or-die dive. She heals absurd amounts mid-fight and never disengages.
How to play against Briar
- 1Grievous Wounds is mandatory — her healing doubles her effective HP.
- 2In frenzy she attacks the NEAREST unit: body-block with tanks or pets to redirect her.
- 3Hard CC during her E channel or frenzy resets her all-in.
- 4Her ult is a coin-flip dive — spread so the landing hits one person, then collapse.
Weaknesses to exploit
- ✓Grievous Wounds cripples her entire design.
- ✓Frenzy is exploitable — she chases whoever is closest, even a tank.
- ✓No real disengage: a failed dive is a death sentence.
- ✓Falls over to kiting and disengage comps.
Abilities & how to counter them
What each of Briar's abilities does — and how to play around it.
P
Maldição CarmesimOs Ataques e as Habilidades de Briar acumulam sangramento que cura Briar numa quantidade do dano causado. Constantemente faminta, ela ganha cura aumentada com base na Vida perdida, mas não tem Regeneração de Vida inata.
Strong: no health regen but huge lifesteal on everything she does. Weak: Grievous Wounds turns her into paper — rush it.
Q
VertigemBriar salta até uma unidade e atinge inimigos com um golpe giratório, atordoando e fragmentando a Armadura de todos que atingir.
Strong: a leaping stun that opens every trade and gank. Weak: short range and her main initiation — after it she's committed.
W
Frenesi Sanguinário/Ataque FamintoBriar salta e quebra sua berlinda, entrando num Frenesi Sanguinário que faz com que ela persiga o inimigo mais próximo (priorizando Campeões). Enquanto estiver no Frenesi, ela ganha Velocidade de Ataque e Velocidade de Movimento aumentadas, e seus ataques causam dano em área perto do alvo.Briar pode reativar esta Habilidade enquanto estiver no Frenesi para dar uma MORDIDA no alvo no próximo ataque dela, causando dano adicional baseado na Vida perdida e cura com base no dano causado.
Strong: frenzy — bonus speed, damage and lifesteal on the nearest target. Weak: she attacks the NEAREST unit mindlessly — feed her a tank or pet.
E
Grito ArrepianteBriar se concentra novamente, removendo Frenesi Sanguinário e canalizando sua energia em um grito poderoso que causa dano e Lentidão a inimigos. Ao carregar, ela recebe dano reduzido e se cura em uma parte de sua Vida máxima. Um grito totalmente carregado empurra inimigos, causando dano adicional e atordoando os que atingirem uma parede.
Strong: a channelled scream that heals, slows and stuns into walls. Weak: the channel is interruptible and the knockback needs a wall behind you.
R
Morte CertaBriar lança o hemólito da berlinda dela, marcando o primeiro Campeão atingido como sua presa. Depois, ela avança diretamente, causando temor a inimigos próximos ao chegar no alvo e entrando num estado de hemomania total. Ela persegue a presa até a morte, recebendo os benefícios de Frenesi Sanguinário, além de Armadura, Resistência Mágica, Roubo de Vida e Velocidade de Movimento adicionais.
Strong: a cross-map dive that fears everyone around the first target hit. Weak: kill-or-die by design — spread out, peel the landing, and she dies in your team.
Itemization
Rush Grievous Wounds (Executioner's/Bramble). Redirect her frenzy onto tanks, CC the channels, and kite — she can't leave a fight she started.
