Tips Against Briar in the Jungle Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Foxirion says “Briar’s crowd control and damage can make him a moderate threat to Viego.”
huncho1v9 says “- Easy matchup post-nerfs. If she goes bruiser it can be annoying if you’re playing lethality. If she goes lethality you just win. Watch for early cheese, especially on raptors or late invade. Don’t fall behind you win easily. Conq preferred matchup but it depends on enemy comp. Can easily kite and space her kit with E + Ghost.”
Dreamer1v9 says “Briar is the same as Warwick. This is a completely skill-based matchup and is not that hard to play against.
She is quite useful for her team. Briar can deliver a lot damage with being able to have good sustain (if she builds right).
My recommendation early is to not be afraid of invading a champ like Briar early because of how weak she is early. You can easily dominate her with playing around with her W. Immediately W her and wait until she activates her W form and then charm her. (Keep a reminder that if she is good player she will hold her W back until you charm her) If she does not immediately activate her W, wait until she does and then charm her.”
Kwayzae says “Briar can heal a lot and late game becomes very tanky. Try and invade her early on without too many risks and play for peel in the later stages of the game.”
Baby_Driver says “Executioner's Calling or Bramble vest are great options here.
Just walk out of her E if she uses it, other that than that, you just run her down.”
Fyir says “She gains a lot of movespeed with her w forcing her to chase the nearest enemy, you can kite her with your w for a short period but she will catch up. If you kite towards your team she will be vulnerable.”
Mignognium says “Briar Jgl n'est pas un problème pour Viego. Quand vous aurez votre [Kraken Slayer] vous aurez un meilleur clear qu'elle. Faites attention à son ultime [R][Vol mortel] durant les team fitgh. Si elle vous focus essayer de fuir avec votre [E] mais jamais avec votre [Z] utiliser le pour quand elle frappera quelqu'un d'autre que vous ou après qu'elle vous est CC avec son [A/Q][À table !]. Pour finir posséder le corps de Briar vous donnera beaucoup de survivabilité pour vos fitgh. ”
tradtrad says “Pretty hard matchup as she just stat checks you and she's hard to burst. She beats you in sustained fights aswell. Same as Viego where executioner's calling is useful. You can also pull her into your tower or team if she wastes Q or E beforehand.”
Recent says “Whole kit is annoying to play with and you cannot really play deeper and get ahead of the game becouse of her strong lifestealing and cc kit”
Kocykek says “Briar doesn't stand a chance against you. She doesn't deal damage and you can block her dashes (Q and W) with your Steadfast Presence (W). You outdamage her anytime, you can grab antiheal as well but without it that's enough anyway as your kit is created to stop these kind of champions.”
DjapeFromSerbia says “Depending on expiriance of Briar player, you should probably be able to invade her at last camp. If you try to 1v1 her at in river you need to make sure she doesn't reach you otherwise she will outsustain your damage.”
Cookiemanman says “Briar is a fairly squishy champion in the early stage fights. She also has no kiting ability which allows Volibear to get his damage consistently on her. Try to avoid using your damage combo during her E.”
X3mHills says “This is a difficult matchup, but it can be won if you play around your tanks and constantly utilize the landscape. For example, you can jump over walls and auto-attack her when she has ALREADY used her W.”
Mabujo says “The Feet Pic mistress.
Even unless she lands ult. Her healing outclasses yours and lethality is obviously funny when played on her. Bait or fear and if she used her cc, it should be pretty straightforward.”
HawkSP says “Ivern can effectively counter Briar's single-target focus with his shielding and CC. Proper Daisy management can turn an engagement with Briar in your favor.”
Jhingle says “Stuns, ult, one shots from her.She s annoying,but more then playable,u are way better teamfighter.When they started to build bruisers and stop build into assassins is very hard one match up,better ban.”
XGrievousX25 says “Naturally messes armor, breaks you down, goes lethality. Very dangerous to fight against and your big hitbox means her ult is USUALLY going to land on you. You want to either coordinate with your team and CC her or hope to God your lanes and you, yourself, are doing okay. ”
EnderRed29 says “Her W can focus you while you're invisible. She also is difficult to kill cause of her W (sustains when reactivate) and E (give her dmg reductions). Try to stay at the opposite of her.”
Zasrana Hyenaa says “Briar: annoying deals a lot of demage to you.....
HOW TO PLAY VS: She can r on objective to you so make sure you sweep first.. dont try to fight her without team or she will kill you (I didnt play vs her in season 14 yet so I cant say how strong she is rn)”
oneshotudyr says “50/50, if she goes lethality she can one shot you faster, since her stun registers before yours, and then you'll have to face her while you bleed and she heals. If she goes bruiser just be careful and try to catch her by surprise.”
PuppyDontPreach says “you eat her ass up post six. just have good pathing and gank well. if you're a good evelynn player she will never be a problem other than in teamfights; to which you should try and backdoor.”
xTechikaze says “Disgusting champ. Will one vs one you everytime and almost always win. Especially when it comes to the late game she will be a nightmare for you to contend. Best you can do is keep vision on her and counter gank her the best you can. She will be the one you want to peel with ult almost every single game you have against her.”
Tortizzy says “The Briar matchup is easy you just need to gang up on her with your teammates. Your ultimate oneshots her most of the times, be careful of her CC abilities, don't use W if she has the CC up.”
Kayn Ruiner says “A strong auto-attacker with a camp and a hill. If she hooked you, maybe you will die, also has a subsave. Wait for the rabies to be removed through her ability and use ulta.”
RuinedJG says “Briar is incredibly simple, if she goes lethality you build Death's Dance or Sterak's 3rd, space your Q and you win very easily. I like Phase rush into her.”
kcjackal__ says “Can be hard to deal with early game. Later in the game give her a hug while your team deals with her so she doesn't devour your entire team. Make sure to eat her ult if it will hit your team and run away to not fear them then run back in.”
Pro8l3m says “U can easily dodge all her abilities with your R but watchout for her insane healing and near walls she can stun you into wall with her E so try to dodge it”
shatteredekko says “Not hard. She will always get stunned by your W. And is very easy to hit with your R. Just dodge her E with your E, passive MS, or R and you will live. If she hits you with R without your R hop a wall.”
jajkopajko says “Not great not terrible. Dodging her ult is a must at all costs, if she hits it on you you are dead. If you are 1v1 always pop ghost early and try to kite her. You should kill her on 2 rotations of spells if you manage to keep her at a distance. The longer the game goes on, the gigger chance of killing her you have if you dodge ult.”
Kazuo Murasaki says “ Dodge her W! invade her early. Dodge her R later in the game if she lands it though Get away from your team so she cant get the AOE fear and when she reaches in her R you R her off you Asap.”
basrty1p says “Don't get hit by her R and check every bush with your Q before teamfights or else you'll be get killed easily. Her attack power is so high and dangerous if you can't counter her quickly. Recommend to spam E+W to her first every game.”
MusicJG says “If she lands ult on you, you'll die.
Try to kite her when she has no Q by dashing over walls.
You will outscale, just try not to fight in isolation.
Invading her level 3 is good with lanes that have push.”
metalhydra273 says “Good lord where do I begin with this one? Briar has very little agency in dealing with Skarner if he gives her any attention at all, meaning it's up to her to tread very carefully or die. Similar situation to Nocturne, but her engage is more telegraphed. and she has no spellshield to play around. If she’s on you, you can e her and run back away or fight her if you’re able to win 1v1. Briar generally wants to maximize her damage, so she’s often left squishy without using her ult, leaving her open to you blowing her up. If she's building bruiser, she's only giving you more time to intervene.
Despite inherent advantages, if you want to fully abuse the matchup, you're going to need some additional matchup knowledge. Crowd control doesn’t cancel her e windup, so if you ult her during it, you'll take her with you in the knockback, which can be used to stay on her, even if she pushes you into a wall for the stun. Iceborn gauntlet is a must here, this should prevent you from getting bursted too hard by her and let you run her into your own team. Her ult's aoe fear will keep you out from immediately helping a teammate, and keep in mind that her ult gives her a massive burst window on her target if she hits your carry. Look to take advantage of bad engages through peel or try to block the ult yourself to buy your team time to collapse and kill her. For more general rune users, consider phase rush to really make her life hell.”
support_diff says “Permaban, her W taunts her to you which isn't really the best option when you want to stay sneaky in the bush. You can't steal her buff and this guide is all about the invading. ”
garbocan says “She's forced to commit onto a single target, which makes the decision of who to shield very easy. Also is weak against Ivern's CC.
If she goes on you while you have Daisy up, it's basically a free kill. Cast R and E as she's about to Q you, and make sure to move Daisy out of her E when she casts it. After that, there is no further counterplay for Briar and she just dies.”
DracoChimera says “This match up is similar to facing WW. Whoever gets the upper hand will win the game. Buy Bramble Vest or Oblivion Orb early and you will win most 1v1s.”
CoconutPlayer77 says “new champo i dunno what you do vs this creature but it probably just runs you down with more ms than you with lategame passive so gg”
OakIgu says “Briar is very much like Warwick, early bramble will be good and be carefull on early game because she is very strong, she can also clear dragon very early so keep a ward there but if your bot lane isn't able to help you don't even bother.”
