Match History link?

Also, you generally shouldn't feel bad if you get melted as Braum. Remember, your shield is literally designed to make Braum catch every projectile that flies by him; it's only natural that he tanks damage more than normal, even for a tank. All it means is that all the damage was redirected onto you and your teammates aren't suffering the same damage (Remember, if it takes 5 seconds for their entire team focusing you to kill Braum, think of how badly it could've gone if your squishy ADC was the focus target and you weren't around to shield them. Everything's relative.)

I looked over your games on na.op.gg.

Honestly, it looks like you're building for the enemy team, and your builds seem solid enough to me. If you're getting melted, and your team is winning team fights, laugh because the enemy team focused the tank. As long as you get your ult off and a couple q's that proc full stuns, consider the fact that you just earned 5 assists to one death. that's 5:1 kda ratio right there; really really good.

As a tank, never be afraid to die as long as you're protecting your carry. It's pretty much your job to be a damage sink. If you have further questions, you can add me, I can give more direct advice on positioning, etc, as Braum that might help you more.

My Braum build is usually: A warm smile, boots(depends on enemy team), heart of gold (for it is the strongest of the support items), poro-snacks-stone, Randuins or Aegis depending on enemy team. My consumable is Goat Milk, and trinket is another poro snack.
