[quote=Vynertje][quote=The_Nameless_Bard][[Braum]] is perfectly fine to pick into [[Blitzcrank]] if you know what you're doing >.>[/quote] By no means a counterpick but he does fine indeed. Braum is also really, really good against [[jinx]].[/quote]

[quote=Jovy]I tend to pick [[braum]] (or [[morgana]]) whenever I'm up against [[blitzcrank]] because you can tank all the grabs (by walking into them or abusing your [[unbreakable]]) for your ADC, and then just [[stand behind me]] to safety.[/quote]

[quote=VexRoth]I was actually okay with the Braum pick, but given a choice of Braum or [[Morgana]] I thought Morgana would be a better choice given that Varus has no escapes. Both of them were queried on their pick choices in champion select after the Blitzcrank was locked in but they were going with them.[/quote]

[quote=Jovy]Agreed, but the pick doesn't even matter if you're going to die 13 times anyway.[/quote]

[quote=The_Nameless_Bard]Pretty sure if he dies 13 times with [[Braum]] he'll die more times as [[Morgana]] given how much squishier she is. xD I pick [[Nami]] and [[Soraka]] against [[Blitzcrank]], I like to live on the edge. xD[/quote]

[quote=VexRoth]Thanks for articulating the reasons that Braum is good against Blitzcrank,MissMaw. Though the thing about [[Blitzcrank]] + [[Jinx]] is the [[Rocket Grab]] + [[Power Fist]] + [[Flame Chompers!]] combo for the chained CC. I would assume that even Braum would take a beating from all that? Though better the support than the ADC. I usually prefer [[Leona]] into [[Blitzcrank]] so I can go ham on their ADC if I get grabbed, though I don't know if I've tried that matchup with a Jinx on the other side.[/quote]

About how I probably look playing Braum! XD You are a brave...or crazy ;) soul![/quote]

You can also consider it a free gap closer to get in range for Q's. Since I run 0/21/9 with full defensive runes there's no way you're going to die anyway.[/quote]
