Quick Answer for Patch 26.20

  1. Goliath

    Prismatic

    Become large, gaining 15% Health and 10% Adaptive Force.

    Why on Braum

    Extra Health makes you harder to burst while you block projectiles with Unbreakable (E) and leap to threatened allies with Stand Behind Me (W).

  2. Tank Engine

    Gold

    Gain increased size and percent bonus Health per takedown.

    Why on Braum

    Concussive Blows (passive) stuns help your team secure takedowns, and each one grows your Health so you can keep blocking with Unbreakable (E) in later rounds.

  3. Dreadbringer

    Prismatic

    Gain an aura that continuously harvests permanent Cursed Power per enemy champion inside. Gain max Health based on your Cursed Power.

    Why on Braum

    You fight up close to stack Concussive Blows (passive) with your attacks, so enemies stay inside your aura and keep feeding you permanent Cursed Power for max Health.
