Briar Guide
Tips for Playing Against Briar
- -Play safe early! Not only does she do a lot of damage, but she can cancel your W with her stun very easily.
- -If you survive until a good 900g back or so (Giant's Belt perhaps) then I think you're golden!
- -If she ults you then you can try to quick W into tower. Might work well!
- -When she tries to push you, you can usually fight her if you can dodge it, so it can be good to fight right close to her after your spikes so you can walk behind her.
Good Items to Use Against Briar

Plated Steelcaps
I am a Bramble hater, but I think Bramble might be fine here in some situations. I think Orb is way better though. Consistently can proc it, does more damage, and a little AP works well with a lot of health on TK.

Tabi's is probably good when behind. I still love swifties.

I like rushing Heartsteel, you can also go an armor item like Iceborn or Dead Man's, and even consider a Frozen Heart late game if they have a Kalista or Vayne or something.
