Why does Braum have less HP than a adc?

Braum literally starts with less hp, he is supposed to be a tank right? Well, where is the tank? Even darius has 800 hp like cmonBruh

I suppose that he will get a buff right?

Also why the f is trundle so op?

Braum has more effective HP since his armor/MR is higher, as well as defensive abilities that make him even harder to kill. He's also encouraged to build more health and resistances since he scales off those stats. An ADC can't afford to build tanky.

trundle is nearly unplayable. He requires so many things just to even be viable.

#1 enemy team CANT have a tank buster. #2 your team needs a healing support like Soraka so that you can exploit Trundles W+Spirit Visage+healer support. #3 he NEEDS a pure tank to be on the enemy team for him to use R on.

Goodluck getting those stars to align, and even if you do...hes average.

He's prominent in pro play because of his E and teamfight potential R.

So gl hoping for him to ever receive anything but nerfs.

Braum is tied for having the highest base armor in the game at level 1 along with Leona and Tahm Kench. His hp at level 1 is in the middle of adc's base hp, about half have a bit more and half have a bit less, but the difference really isn't drastic. Darius's base hp at level 1 is only about 40 more than Braum's. Braum starts with 540 hp, Darius starts with 582, but Darius also starts out with 8 fewer armor points.

Basically, to answer your question, Braum has less hp than some ADCs at level 1 but is still tankier than them because he has far more armor. His w also gives him bonus armor and magic resist, and his shield lets him block projectiles, so his kit also makes him more tanky.

That being said, Braum does have a pretty low win rate, and I think that's probably due to him being strong in pro play.

It's because his Q scales with HP, so they don't want to make it too strong?

They nerfed him like a decade ago when he was released because he was jungling and destroying top lane so they nerfed some of his base stats and damage so he couldn't overpower other top laners. He's still stupid strong in proplay since he can give his adc a stun. Trundle is OP because he was brain dead garbage and Rito over buffed him to make him counter the possibility of tank meta.

Q damage scales with his HP he as a W that gives armor and MR and a E that gives damage reduction.

i'm pretty sure braum has been P/B or at least quite good in pro play for a while but i'm not caught up on snoozetown's latest episodes

also try playing trundle. in any role. in any capacity. you will very soon learn why the opposite of your argument is true.

why does talon have 335 movement speed and pantheon 355 ? why does garen have less hp than mages ?

For a lot of good reasons, tanks in general, their damage components on their abilities generally scale with HP, armor, or magic resist.

The idea is that given that information, the player will inherently think about building tank items to supplement their damage as well as their minor deficiency in stats compared to other roles and to otherwise deter building stuff like crit/lethality/mage items on tanks.

The opposite is true for the other roles as well.
