Gameplay Style

Briar is primarily played as a assassin/diver/fighter, leveraging their melee combat style to dominate in the jungle. Since their release in Patch 13.18, players have come up with a bunch of different strategies and builds to maximize Briar's potential.

As a physical-focused champion who uses Frenzy to cast their abilities, Briar requires players to carefully manage their resources while positioning effectively to deal maximum damage. The champion's design makes them particularly effective against squishy targets like ADCs and mages, allowing for quick kills in fights.

Briar's Story

A failed experiment by the Black Rose, Briar's uncontrollable bloodlust required a special pillory to focus her frenzied mind. After years of confinement, this living weapon broke free from her restraints and unleashed herself into the world. Now she's controlled by no one—following only her hunger for knowledge and blood—and relishes the opportunities to let loose, even if reining back the frenzy isn't easy.
