How to beat Lulu as Braum: the early game

Levels 1-3 are Lulu's: Glitterlance and Pix out-range your poke, her polymorph shuts your engage before it starts, and you have no way to close the gap on her carry cleanly. Her range beats yours and her polymorph cancels your step-in, so hold the shield and let your ADC farm. Mark her only once the polymorph has been spent on someone else. Keep your body between her and your carry, and let the passive stack finish rather than opening with it.
