I love to play the big man at the support role. Build super tanky and late game its just a matter of landing your Q then stunning your poor poor opponent. Why isnt he played much at the pro level

Then why are you claiming he isn't getting played by pros?

actually he's prioritized over Alistar in pros right now. so he's being played quite a bit right now. He's also getting banned in a few matches.

He is played a massive amount ATM, and is bordering OP once more.

That's still not something you should claim if you're not even watching the games. He's getting played more than most supports.

Why he needs to get spammed by pros to be considered viable to you is beyond me anyway.

In the Gauntlet match ROC vs. OG he was picked in all 5 games. And i thinked he was also played in OGN Final and in NA Gauntlet

He's a situational pick really. He was picked a few times in the C9/TL games.

Best combo is Braum Lucian.

He was picked a majority at the pro level.

I can assure you he's used very often, lol. You will do well with him if you have the will to go in and not afraid to be hit back (not mindlessly, though).

yeah i usually play him pretty aggressively. its helps having an ADC that isn't super passive. my fav combo is prob Braum + Caitlyn or Varus

Last weekend he was basically a guaranteed 1st pick by blue team. He is in a good place now.

He's getting picked/banned a lot in pro games.

He is seeing a lot of play at the pro level since his last buff. The damage increase to his Q really helped a lot since people have to respect it now.

Braums shield can negate so much damage, once all the enemies spells are on CD, Kalista ult Braum into enemy team, then BRAUM ULT, GO ALL IN! Headhshot.
