Hi !

I'm both excited and frustrated by the first showcase of the new Braum skin. Here's my personal feeling about it, I know everyone can't agree with my point of view so** feel free to add yours**. By the way, I main Braum and english is not my first language.

So, I think the main concept is brillant and has its potential, but for now, I just see an underexploited idea with odd choices.

**The spells **

Q : Why throwing a fluo yellow chair ? I feel that a tiger face would be more "Braumy". But if the chair would flip more like a knife, I could find this cool and coherent. Other idea : throwing his Gold belt.

Passive : It could be very fun if Braum takes his chair with two hands to smack the head (from the top) when he freezes him.

W : I never seen the animation in the youtube videos but it would be fun if Braum does a salto who looks like a Wrestling swan dive.

E : For now I feel this spell totally dull, very disappointing. Why not choose a folding table or something more visual.

R : I think it could be cool if Braum is running over a folding ladder before using it (after a salto) to smash it on the ground. If you want to stay in the wrestling thing, you could add big springs who jump from the ground (the Ring).

Regarding the colors : I can't really share an opinion. There are quite coherent with the theme but I'm not in love with them. Maybe I could prefer the costume with more blue (Braum identity) instead of the grey. Maybe the head needs more contrast, maybe the red, which is the third color, don't match very well with the others.

I stop here. What I didn't comment, like the recall animation, is what I approve at 200% !

**EDIT : ** Now, I think the other "problem" of this skin is that is lacking of the "heavy" Braum feel, especially the chair. Why not switch the chair with a (bigger) folding table ?

I've just seen the visual and it looks like a 750RP skin to me. Braum is a cool and chill character. Because of his moustachioness you get the feeling you'r safe when he's close.

But I don't have that feeling with this new skin he's more of a joke. I will tell you my + and -

+Braum's Passive -it got the El Tigre stack symbol, it looks fine -Braum's Q - would've being cool if it looked more like a tiger face. +Braum's E - If they could add eye's it would look more awesome but the mouth alone looks awesome. -Braum's R - I like the colour of the ground that goes up but the wrestling poles felt out of place. -I get the idea of the wrestling chair but still the chair just looks terrible and doesn't fit with the rest.. no it doesn't fit with THE Braum. (Riot WE WANT THE BRAUM) +Callback just perfect that just makes the wrestling theme. And for sure one of the top 3 callbacks for sure ^^\

  • Braum's mask so terribly done I just can't find a way to like it (Ever seen the El Tigre Nickelodeon show something like that would look awesome ^^) (Or make the mask black and the moustache brown, cause the yellow and white just doesn't fit) (And again white moustache? Braum should not hide his moustache! that is what braum makes braum come on!)

My biggest issue with the skin is the chair, the mask and the poles of his Ult.

Put a roar in Braum's Q :D I would rate this skin (as how it looks now) A **5.5/10 or a C- ** -750 RP skin

Please Riot, Don't make Braum skin a downer. You must feel safe by his presence.

I play Braum. What I like the most about him is his shield. Using a thin folding chair doesn't give the feel to an unbreakable door.

His shield should be Draven's face. Enough said.

I agree completely that Braum doesn't look as tough with his chair, although i can deal with it. On the other hand, They should add more El Tigre. I saw from others that they should add crowds cheering when he lands a Q, or just add crowds cheering somewhere. Also what Xoaijohn said needs more mustache, Its Braum you need it. Also the Poro looks terrible too. I didn't even no what i was looking at when I saw it. Its a great idea, but they could spend a little more time on the design. Its almost wasteful to just let it go now. I'm still going to buy it know matter what but, the skin in-game didn't wow me. Riot Spend more time on it. Nacho Libre
