How to win the jungle race as Briar against Lillia · Matchup data reviewed on patch 26.15
Read from Briar's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Lillia.
| Stage | Read | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 Clear | Briar Dominant | Head Rush's stun gives a clean engage trade at the first buff contest, while the Blooming Blows true-damage edge clears fast. Only one of those wins at the first buff, so press it: take the level-1 crossing, then leave with a camp and a chunk of their health bar. |
| Level 2 Skirmish | Briar Dominant | Blood Frenzy sustain turns level-2 skirmishes into races she usually wins. Watch Out! Eep! center-hits plus passive speed kite melee kits apart, and with one camp still up on both sides that is not an answer. Take the level-2 skirmish and make Lillia path away from the camps you want. |
| Level 3 Route | Briar Dominant | Frenzy healing plus charged Chilling Scream is one of the hardest level-3 all-ins. There is no version of this Lillia wins right now — dream-dust uptime plus W nukes out-pace anything without a dash, and that folds at the opening scuttle. Show on their side of the river and take the first scuttle and the gank window behind it. |
| Levels 4-5 Macro | Briar Favoured — Take Duels | You hold the edge at 4-5, not a blowout. She farms 4-5 at speed, kiting with Blooming Blows, and commits only where Swirlseed lands first, so meet them where the camps are, not where their laners are. |
| Level 6 Breakpoint | Even Ult Window | Both sixes are real: Certain Death picks the target and the frenzy finishes it — your all-in has no half-measure, while Lilting Lullaby sleeps the whole skirmish. Whoever lands their ultimate first wins the window — track the level race and never be the one caught at five and a half. |
| First Item Spike | Sundered Sky / Eclipse Spike | Completing your core item triggers a massive physical damage and sustained fighting multiplier that completely overpowers traditional brawlers or isolated targets. Lillia's first item is when the passing damage becomes real — she stops chipping and starts out-pacing health bars. |
| 2+ Items Scaling | Respect Lillia Late — End Early | The full-build comparison goes to Lillia: she is untouchable dream damage on a permanent kite, and the sleep decides fights. Play for picks and objectives, and end before the fight has to be fair. |
Start your clear at the Raptors or Red Buff camp utilizing your W frenzy to maximize early clear speed and sustain. Lillia clears fast and safely, kiting camps with Blooming Blows, and takes very little damage getting to three.
