How to beat Braum as Taric: the early game

Levels 1-3 favour Braum: his Q slow feeds Concussive Blows, and once his ADC stacks the passive you get stunned, while your dashless kit can't punish his E-shielded frontline, so play safe and deny the Q-into-stack sequence. He is counting hits toward a stun and so are you, so break his count by moving your carry after two of his procs. Link your ADC, hold your own stun for his approach, and let the empowered autos decide an exchange neither of you can burst out of.
