Briar vs Lee Sin

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Use Briar's high clear speed and dueling to contest river and punish isolated Lee Sin early attempts.
Prioritize fighting around lanes with priority to protect your frenzy commits and avoid Lee Sin's level 3 invade threat.
Snowball through healthy tempo and protected skirmishes to leverage Briar's scaling carry threat.

Jungle Plan

Path toward volatile lanes with lane priority to create counter-gank windows and secure river control.
Invade or counter-invade only when you have lane priority and exit routes are warded to punish Lee Sin's early pressure.
Use tempo resets after successful ganks to keep camps healthy and deny Lee Sin free farm and scaling.

Danger windows

Lee Sin's level 3 invade and first river move create high-risk windows; avoid fighting alone near river entrances without vision.
Avoid low-health clears that make you vulnerable to Lee Sin's mobile engage and forced smite fights.
Be cautious when (R) is available during objective setups to prevent displacement and forced disengages.

Early game

Start with a full clear to maintain tempo and track Lee Sin's path before committing to river moves.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority to avoid Lee Sin's level 3 invade power spike.
Avoid isolated river fights before level 3 to reduce risk from Lee Sin's strong early dueling and mobility.

Power spikes

Briar's power spikes come from sustained fights and cleanup potential; use (Q) and (R) to stick and isolate priority targets.
Respect Lee Sin's level 3 spike when he gains full kit access, enabling strong invade and river fight potential.
Respect Lee Sin's level 6 (R) displacement for gank follow-ups and objective control; avoid standing between him and teammates.

Win conditions

Use Briar's strong dueling and mobility to snowball through early skirmishes and counter-ganks around river and volatile lanes.
Convert tempo advantages into objective control by securing dragons and Rift Herald with lane priority and vision.
Leverage Briar's scaling threat in extended fights and cleanup dives to dominate teamfights after establishing early map control.
