Dunno if its been mentioned ever, but every other champion with a jump to ability Can ward jump, why cant Braum for escape purposes or gap closing over walls Ect. the Ward jump brings in loads of game play mechanics to my farovrite champion and i would love this mechanic implemented eventually.

I feel like the inability to ward jump is kinda nice. It forces you to think a little bit more about how you use your jump. I feel like the ward-jump is an easy cop-out, and the lack of a ward-jump forces you to think more about tricky ways to use your jump offensively, like jumping to minions or coordinating with teammates etc. Honestly though, I feel like ward-jumping is kinda an overused motif at this point so I'm kinda glad there's at least 1 champion whose leap is free of a ward-jumping mechanic.

They addressed this when he was first released. They didn't think it was worth giving a support such as Braum the ability to ward hop. His purpose is to protect allies, not quickly rush through the jungle, chase enemies, or escape if caught/in a bad siutation.

Bc Braum likes to protect people, thats why he jumps to them. But he cant really protect wards. :P

I vote yes but thematically it makes no sense for him.

I wish, except now we don't even have enough wards that a support burning a sightstone stack to ward jump isn't worth it.

I've seen enough Lcs big plays, Braum doesn't need it and he's already very versatile, can jump on ally minions as well. He's not supposed to be a 'slippery mobile champion'.
