Braum vs Alistar Matchup Summary
The Braum vs Alistar matchup is a moderate matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 119 recent matches analyzed, Braum wins with a 52.1% win rate compared to Alistar's 47.9%, giving Braum a 4.2 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Alistar controls the early laning stage, but Braum outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Alistar needs to press advantages before Braum reaches their power spikes, while Braum should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in sustain, where Alistar leads by 659 HP/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Braum has a statistical edge, but the margin is close enough that respecting Alistar's strengths is important. Trade when cooldowns are favorable, track the enemy jungler, and build toward your strongest item spikes to convert the slight advantage into a decisive lead. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.
