Track: Lux's Q — Light Binding (10s cooldown). Everything keys off the root — minion-block it and the combo never starts.
Read from Braum's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Lux.
This is Braum's own plan; across 4,948 pooled games the lane is leaning Braum.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Lux | Level 1 favours Lux as Light Binding roots you from beyond your Q range. |
| Level 2 | Lux | Level 2 stays Lux's on root-plus-poke exchanges from safety. |
| Level 3 | Lux | Level 3 remains Lux-favoured because her zoning denies you the wave. |
| Levels 4-5 | Lux | Levels 4-5 stay hers on continued long-range poke you can't punish. |
| Level 6 | Lux | Level 6 is Lux's since Final Spark snipes your carry through your peel. |
| First item | Lux | First item still favours Lux as her root-to-burst chain rules from range. |
| Two+ items | Braum | 2+ items flips to you as tank items let you close and stun a low-mobility mage. |
Levels 1-5 belong to Lux: Light Binding roots you from a range your Q can't answer, Lucent Singularity zones the wave, and she farms poke off you and your ADC without ever being in danger. Her root reaches past anything you can answer, so the shield goes up toward her and stays there. Never share a line with your own ADC. Mark her the moment the root is spent, and let your carry complete the stack while she has nothing left to hold you off with.
