Yuumi vs Braum Counter Pick

Unbreakable shapes this pairing more than any single stat does. Braum’s shield catches incoming projectiles and cancels them, while Yuumi’s damage arrives as a projectile through Prowling Projectile. Across 1,119 games on patch 16.13.1, she wins 40.0% of them.

• Durability: Braum starts with 610 health and 35 armor and ends with 2,514 health and 120 armor. Yuumi starts at 500 health with 25 armor and finishes at 1,673.
• Damage type: Braum’s damage comes in a mix, so buying either armor or magic resist alone does not fully counter Winter’s Bite feeding into Concussive Blows, which stuns after four stacks connect.
• Reach: Yuumi’s 425 attack range looks like an edge over Braum’s 125, until Stand Behind Me lets him leap to any allied champion or minion and cancel that gap.

A difficulty rating of 3 means he is forgiving to learn, and his value does not hinge on landing hits: a nearby ally gains armor and magic resist the moment he touches down, and Glacial Fissure launches everything caught in a line into the air. Yuumi’s counterplay leans on speed more than damage. Zoomies hands its move speed and attack speed to her partner, Feline Friendship heals her whenever it lands, and she does best fighting around minions, where the shield cannot guard every angle at once. Braum runs at 335 to her 330 and begins level 1 with 55 attack damage to her 49, so simply backing off is not a workable answer either.
