Because lee sin's w allows him to jump to wards, why doesn't braum's w do that as well?

When they released him they didnt want to give him 'too much power' by making him the tank version of lee win. So its fairly obvious that riot really despises tanks.

I still believe ward hopping on braum would suite him. It's a matter of looking at it in the right way. He can't hop on enemies, and if you gave yasuo this ability then it would obviously be over powered, but giving braum it will give him enough utility to see top braum gameplay in the meta.

while I dont disagree, mobility supports up until Bard wasnt really a concept. Dont know what they would 'compensate' aka nerf the shit out of, to give braum his ward hop.

Cause Braum is a tank champion with higher defensive mechanism, so ward hopping for him isn't so suited. Or else, it's too broken.

Ward hopping was an unintentional feature that was just never touched, as Riot believe it makes the champions who have it be more complex somehow. Because it was not intended, though, they would not knowingly add ward-hopping as a mechanic for any recently released champions.

Then get rid of lee sins ward hop and see what happens? I want the ward hop feature for braum, i am for it, and i wont say no to it.

Seriously, how is this not a thing? Is lee sin the only one allowed to make sick plays? AD braum needs a chance to be in the meta.

Give AD Braum a chance, and you will see how viable he can be if he could jump to a ward with his w.

Why should a champion be played only one way? Why should braum stay as a support and not top? Why?

Soraka played as mid/top, reworked.

Alistar as jungle, nerfed down.

You get my point.

Personally, I'm up for the opposite: The idea of taking away Lee Sin's ward-hopping attribute from a W ability that's fundamentally the same as Braum's W. One of Lee's major issues is that he has too much mobility, and it comes from an ability that's designed to protect living allied units (which a ward doesn't count as), or to help himself sustain in the jungle.

If the devs are actually able to justify denying Braum of the ability, the same reasoning can probably be applied to Lee as well >_>
