Learn how to Briar counter with these essential tips.
Tags:
All
Stay grouped with your team when Briar is nearby — her Blood Frenzy (W) forces her to attack the nearest target, making her vulnerable to focus fire while she cannot control her movement or attacks.
Basic Team Fight Late Game
Focus Briar when she enters Blood Frenzy (W) — she cannot disengage on her own and must either be killed or use her E to break out of the frenzy, which costs additional health.
Team Fight Skirmish
Position near turrets or your team when fighting Briar alone — if she engages with W, she'll be forced to follow you into dangerous positions since she can't control her movement during Blood Frenzy.
Lane Phase Skirmish
Bait Briar's ultimate when your team is nearby — once she commits, she's locked into Hematomania and must attack her marked target, making her predictable and vulnerable to focus fire.
Advanced Team Fight Late Game
Save crowd control for after Briar engages with her W or R — she relies on dealing damage to heal (she has no base health regeneration), and CC can prevent her from attacking and sustaining.
Team Fight Skirmish
Place deep vision wards to spot Briar's flanking attempts — she excels at arriving unexpectedly with her R from unusual angles to pick off isolated targets.
Late Game Team Fight
Avoid fighting Briar near walls when her E (Chilling Scream) is available — a fully charged E that knocks you into terrain stuns for 1.5 seconds and deals significant bonus damage.
Skirmish Lane Phase
Engage on Briar after she uses multiple abilities — each ability costs 6% of her current health, leaving her vulnerable when low, especially since she has no base health regeneration.
Advanced Lane Phase Skirmish
If any of your allies are low on health, ping them to retreat immediately — Briar's R makes her especially dangerous to wounded targets as she can reach them from very long distances.
Basic Team Fight Late Game
Invade and ambush Briar during her early jungle clears — hide in bushes and wait for her to use abilities on camps before engaging, when she'll have less health due to ability costs.
Advanced Lane Phase
