Crit Briar [Top,Jg,Mid]

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I'm a mastery 7 Briar trying out different builds and roles, and after trying out Briar MID with Lethality I had an idea to mix the item build with Bruiser/On-Hit items. As the toplaner you can easily secure a decently gank-free lane where you can more safely farm and secure kills compared to mid-lane. Void Grubs are very easy for Briar to solo even as a top-laner because of her healing. This will turn you into a kill-securing and teamfighting god while also making sure your whole team has the benefits of the void grubs, providing the whole team with excellent tower damage for the rest of the game.

Almost always take first item

Voltaic Cyclosword

As it provides you with better waveclear on energised hit, better turret damage and provides 100 Physical dmg + a good slow to the enemy which complements your Q very well as you can now both stun and slow and Briar has 2 dashes helping the energised attack charge up faster. Second item after boots should normally be

Eclipse

It is the ultimate engage item - after hitting an enemy with 3 separate attacks you deal 25% Max health Physical damage AND grants you a temporary shield which absorbs some dmg. Third and Fourth items should be

Jak'Sho

or

BOTRK

Jak'Sho gives you much needed resistanses both for teamfights and tanking towers. BOTRK is similar to Eclipse, but the dmg is not % Max Health, but % Current health On-Hit. The last, but definetly not least item is

Serylda's Grudge

It perfectly rounds up your build as it provides Lethality and Armor Penetration which cause your Eclipse and BOTRK to deal more dmg.

In conclusion this build causes Briar to gain a slow, Max health DMG, Current health dmg and Missing health damage thanks to her W2, all of the damage being increased by the Lethality in Voltaic Cyclosword and the Armor Pen in Serylda's Grudge. Make sure to eat some scrubs and crying noobs.
