Tips Against Brand as a Support Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
18thcaliber says “Whichever one of you cc's first will likely be the victor. ”
0
Sellorio says “Lots of damage, lots of CC and an ult that can constantly bounce between you and your ADC. I perma ban this guy cause it's just not fun to go against that.”
0
Twday says “can cause a lot of trouble but youre still very able to beat him”
0
OakuMarai says “Not really scary if you know how to deal with him. Aery or electrocute with celerity. He's weak level 1, try to bait his W out then poke him. If he can't combo you and you get the bounce from W you'll win basically every trade. Don't facecheck things when he's around or you'll be incinerated.”
0
NotAragami says “Very annoying to deal with. Your E will help you dodge his W and stay behind minions to not get stunned. Pay attention when he hits Lv6 as he will go all in with ult, flash away from your ADC if necessary to negate his ult bouncing damage. ”
0
huirats says “His W does a lot if he can land it, if you're ablaze, try to avoid his Q or you'll get stunned.”
0
OakuMarai says “arseface. take ignite and second wind. if he mispositions for even a second, blow him to pieces with your ADC ”
0
Twday says “screw you. he has a stun, he has annoying poke that you cant heal out much, its just not ideal”
0
Ablano says “ofc every threat is my opinion, i personally hate going against him, some of the mage supports have insane dmg, brand dmg is sus, u get stunned you are dead. ”
0
SigtheOutcast says “Unless the brand is bad, you will suffer. Go ap, locket, and exhaust no matter what your team is building, so you can take a few hits, and wait for a gank or a good time to go in.”
0
Navn says “Should be able to get some Q's in on him. Nice cage target.”
0
PykEugeo says “A very easy fight unless you have a difficult adc for pyke. Ez to grab and to kill... pay attention if he snowballs and look good in late game.. later 3-4 item.. he will be broken, then end soon.
”
0
Navn says “There's very little to do about this guy, since he can poke. Unless he starts aggressively auto attacking you while in your minion wave, he'll just keep poking you out. If you get ganks, then it should be much easier.”
0
Frank Morborrigan says “Brand has some real obnoxious poke and armor shred mostly just a pain in the behind though”
0
orangeGolem2 says “Brand is very immobile but he has insane damage even early on, a stun, and a lot of AOE damage. You will most likely have to snowball your lane first before roaming because if you don't deal with him early on your laner will probably feed the brand or even worse his laner”

DixonTheGuideMaker says “Brand will look to hug the bushes in the bottom lane and try to attack you when you move forward. When playing as an engage champion, target him as soon as he moves forward to poke. Don’t let Brand harass you for free. Try and stand back and out of range of him so he’s unable to attack and harass you with his Pillar of Flame(W). Ensure that you remain healthy otherwise you’ll never be able to fight him. A good time to fight Brand is when he’s out of mana or has an ability on cooldown. This will make trading much better for you as he will not be able to dish out a lot of damage (or possibly stun you if his Sear(Q) is on cooldown) as he’ll have 1 less ability to use.”

M4DN355 says “Brand melts people, but can also be one shot pretty easily. Laning phase will be difficult as he can easily widdle you and your ADC down, but after laning phase, he should be easier to kill as long as you dodge his Q. Since Pyke has a lot of invisibility off of his W and Duskblade, he should be able to stop Brand from using his E and R on him, although if Pyke has already been hit by one of Brand's abilities, the enemy can see Pyke even when he is invisible.”
0
babyyspace says “Brand is a big danger to your ADC early laning phase as he hjas to much poke and damage, focus on healing them. The only threat he has to yuumi is burn damage so make sure to not detach while low health as you will still die from burn damage once you reattach ”
0
Xyotos says “If he does the full combo you will be destroyed. So same thing try to zone him with W and to grab him.
Remember that brand players like bushes a lot.”
0
urazevirgen says “You will burn each other every time. If you land your "Q" on time you can easily kill him. Otherwise he will burn you ”
0
Navn says “While he is squishy, he's got a lot of damage, and being in melee range sets him up to get a pretty big ult off. It can backfire pretty easily.”
0
Jageiko says “Brand is surprisingly ok to deal with if he's not smurfing. As long as he doesnt hit Q you wont die, and like all other mages, he is squishy. If his E and W are on CD and you're not burning, he cannot stun you with Q, so feel free to go in. Dont let him live in that case, once you went it, either you snowball or he does.”
0
CynicalSora says “Brand will out damage your trade. Take Defensive runes and Exhaust/Barrier to reduce his damage. Start Relic Shield to reduce getting caught out and play safe.”
0
RoseOfInnistrad says “Fairly easy lane to find agency in especially when he whiffs abilities, but his damage later on isn't something you can straight up ignore.”

bigbearbiggy says “Annoying to play against, and fairly common as well”
0
LordZaneLP says “High dmg, but you can easily tank him in early game.”
0
MultiFaker says “Annoying Damage, never take Superstar against him as he will most likely damage you first. Play safe and for mid-late game healing”
0
Zulp says “Still hurts after some of his nerfs and item nerfs.”
0
Bazekda says “He outranges you, but once he uses stun he's pretty vulnerable, so abuse his cooldowns.”
0
Luknom says “If you can get on brand he stands almost no chance”
0
Navn says “Just try not to stand too close to minions, because if he W's you, misses you, but hits the minions, he can still E the minions, and it will splash onto you.”

Touka1 says “It can be annoying lane if Brand get ahead otherwise it's easy punishable champ especially vulnerable to jungler gank's because he has no mobility to escape Janna's tornado / slowness”

Lonewolff55 says “Honestly, you kinda counter him so long as you avoid getting hit by his abilities and cc. Your heal is just too OP.”

Godlike Rell says “You must take second wind in the runes. His passive is a killer early game.”

TurtleEpic says “Don't get too poked out early, then engage when you see good chances”

Challenger Project says “Abuse early levels. The problem with all enchanters is all the same - if we don’t snowball early hard, we fall off and get outscaled.”
0
anniesniffer69 says “too op to not get bullied in laning phase however if you somehow manage to dodge his abilities take advantage of that and give him hard spanking.”
0
Sellorio says “You don't have enough mobility to avoid his damage and his ultimate bounces between players - it's practically designed to give a bot lane a bad time.”
0
Rissen says “Don't catch his skillshots and engage when his skills are off cooldown.”
0
Demonsedge90 says “What can I say he just pokes you hard and makes it hard to help your team. Moving around often is the only thing you can do in this fight or wait and try to nab him on cooldown.”

mikixmoris says “Brand is very annoying as he does a lot of DMG and makes your passive useless. if he gets fed you have to rush Maw otherwise say hello to the grey screen.”

Gui_soshaco.jpeg says “Great damage and every skills makes you burn, revealing your position. You can explode him.”
0
Jabberwoc ky says “Always a problem don't let him dwindle you down for too long.”
0
Cordiall says “Brand is a HUGE problem in-lane for Braum. Brand's primary poke ability, his W, isn't blocked by Braum's E so you can't protect your ADC from it. In addition, a lot of Brand's abilities burn you for max health damage, so combined with Liandry's he'll shred you late-game. If you're aggressive early and get kills on him you can kind've keep him down, but he'll almost always be useful.”
0
Bella Starlily says “Brand's damage is too high. Trade with him when his combo is down, co he can't stun you. Be careful of his 6.”

Eu como Miilena says “Tome cuidado com o E do Brand fique atendo quando ele for usa-lo na wave fique longe dos minions e de shild em seu adc que precisa farmar, você consegue segura um pouco o dano dele porem se eu adc não for cuidadoso ele vai botar muita pressão na nale. sempre de poke nele quando as habilidades dele estiverem em CD.”

PrismaticShield says “Very annoying, but can be brought down if you're comfortable dodging his Q.”

SunnySneezer says “Try to poke without walking into his abilities he definitely out damages you.”

Also I hate Brand...”

Ionia King says “Brand is overall a nightmare to deal with. Try to avoid getting stunned and spreading his abilities or ultimate on your team when you E onto them.”
0
The Yertle says “He cooks you alive early to mid game, try to dodge the fire until you stop noticing it doing damage.
Be careful not to spread the burn to your teammates as they are inferior and will probably keel over and die.”

DtNikk says “Brand will poke you out of lane. Guardian and Relic shield are best IMO. Whenever he Rs get away from teammates untill it runs out. ”
0
Nozul says “Campeões de poke como o Brand fazem com que tua vida como Soraka seja um pesadelo. Ele tem um pouco mais de range do que você nas skills, isto é, ele pode te atacar e você mal pode revidar. Não fique muito próximo dos minions, ainda mais dos que estão marcados com a passiva do Brand, senão ele pode usar o E e te marcar facilmente (além de dar dano), deixando você vulnerável para ser alvo da ultimate dele e também do atordoamento do Q.”

sock217 says “Very obnoxious laning phase. Can stun you the second you get out of your W with his W+Q combo. Does alot of damage.”
0
TheBlueImperial says “He has a lot of poke and team fighting power but with second wind his burns are almost non-existent. Make sure you stand away from your carry if he ults you and if he ever wastes his Q early punish it. He is still a dangerous to you mid-late game because of how much percentage max health damage he does.”
0
PumpkinMatters says “Brand, na minha opinião, fica ali entre uma briga equilibrada e uma fácil, porque todo o seu kit depende dele acertar tudo, que não é tão fácil assim. E é muito difícil acertar uma mulher enorme voando com um cavalo em direção a sua cabeça. O perigo aqui é que ele dá muito, mas MUITO dano, então você não pode lutar se sua vida estiver abaixo de 50%. Fique de olho no W dele, que é sua maior fonte de dano, e tente escapar dando aquele passinho safado pro lado. Se ele tiver errado duas das três habilidades, inicie e apague o fogo dele”

beefyylol says “Another mage support. Learn mage player skillshot tendencies and as long as you don't eat every one of his skillshots this matchup is extremely easy. Free catches/blown flashes whenever your ultimate is up.”

pHreekaz says “If you can keep an eye on him you can get him. Don't let brand surprise you. If he combo's you, you are as good as death. Brand likes to play from the bushes”

pBCash says “He does more damage than you and more everything, ban him before it's too late”
0
PumpkinMatters says “Brand, in my opinion, stays between an even fight, and an easy one, because his entire kit revolves around skillshots, which is not that easy. And it's quite hard to land something on a very pissed woman flying with a horse in your head's direction. The danger, here, are his TONS of damage, so don't fight if your life is below 50%. Keep an eye on his W, his biggest damage output, and try to escape it with your dance moves. If he misses two of his three skills, engage and extinguish him”

asmrtoelicks says “Brand thrives on slowly burning the enemies down. Soraka's healing is strong enough to counter him.”

KalelPeique says “OK Brand é maguinho Lixeira, fica longe dos W e tenta esquivar o máximo possível das skills dele, é um pouco chato a match up, porem pra matar ele é bem simples.

HypoTheAced says “Brand is only a threat during laning phaze because of his big dmg together with his passive. Only form of cc is his W+Q or E+Q combo. Avoid that and you outtrade or even kill him.”

revu says “[POKE MAGE]
Same as Lux. Dodge his W forward. Be aware of instant stun Q > E combo.”
0
itsElJefe says “Get ahead early against a Brand player. In the current meta triple burn brand is a problem for us. Xerath is very squishy mage and brand can drop our health with one combo. Additionally stuns are a problem, DONT GET STUNNED or its game over.”
0
TNTea says “Swain is a Mid to Short range Battlemage, and while his W is near semi-global at max rank, its long cooldown and marginal damage doesn't provide Swain access to contend with Artillery Mages and Catcher Champions. So, Brand, Xerath, Vel'koz, Morgana, and Bard are all examples of extremely difficult match-ups.”

GuanaTv says “Procure focar o Brand durante a Fase de Rota e não terá muito com o que se preocupar o resto do jogo.
(Try to focus on the Brand during the Lane Phase and you won't have much to worry about for the rest of the game.)”

Petra Venj says “You can outheal his poke, but you must be careful for his all ins, that the only way he'll kill you. Expect oblivion orb early from him.”
0
neuroplasticity says “
An immobile glass cannon with crazy damage but very little utility. The main thing here is to tether around his W range (900) and bait it without getting hit.
Brand relies on landing a spell before he can look to stun you with his Q which can also be blocked by minions. Just back off if you got hit so he cannot trigger the stun or his passive for huge burst or a potential kill.
At level 6 you have to respect his burst, even if the Brand were to be 0/5. He doesn't even need to hit anything to almost oneshot you if he gets multiple ult bounces off of you. Spread from your teammates (and Brand since his ult can also bounce off of him) to avoid the damage.
Look for trades when his W is down or he used it on your carry. Also, one landed bubble usually spells death for him. Keep in mind that his E is point-click so you can't just run straight at the Brand just because his W is down.
Run Aery with Biscuit Delivery. This will help yourself sustain and allows you to play healbot for your carry if they turn out to be a skillshot magnet.
Taking MR in the rune shards also helps massively. Buildwise you can opt into Redemption to mitigate his ult damage if needed.

Daromius says “keep your distance, second wind and pots should be enough to survive the poke if you dodge enough, all in him with E + W or ult him.”

Doglightning says “Run Comet. Most mages counter neeko but brand isn't that bad compared to the rest just try to poke without letting him poke you. Be careful with your clone at 6! If you send your clone at him, then he can ult the clone to make it bounce between you two.”

Doglightning says “take barrier. Lvl 1 trade aggro but once he hits 2 with stun you have to play safe just looking for sneaky bubbles. Once you hit 6 you can play aggro again hitting poke that will chunk him badly. ”

Mystral says “I find really hard to play against Brand, he has too much damage even in first levels and his stun is very annoying.”
0
PicklePantsLOL says “Brand is a combo mage, which means that if he misses his main combo, or uses it inappropriately, he won't have any use until his next combo rotation. Your main goal will be to dodge his W and stay behind minions to avoid his Q.
Brand's immobility needs to be taken advantage of. Keep the wave near your tower and call upon your Jungler to gank him repeatedly. Bait out his W and E before the gank for maximal effectiveness.
In team-fights, ensure that you aren't clumped up as Brand's main goal will be to land a multi-man W and Ultimate R which will cause a lot of damage and will most definitely kill the squishier champions in your team. Picking him off before a team-fight will increase your chances of winning that fight exponentially.
Vision in the brushes is of paramount importance as he will try to damage you from within them with all his abilities. His E>Q, in particular, is the most dangerous as it will CC you and will allow his lane partner to possibly kill you.”

Aerenax says “Brand is a matchup that I call a big yikes. The champion is obnoxious to play against and deals tons of damage. In this lane you have to avoid his W and play around his passive, otherwise it’s doomed.”

LimTheDestructor says “You usually should engage on Brand. While engaging on Brand lane, you have to beware of 1 thing: getting hit by W/E/R and then by Q - so you have to kite to make his Q miss. After level 6, fight nearby your minions to prevent Brand R bouncing between you and your adc.”

warmfishu says “High damage and a stun that will reset your W. His passive and Pyroclasm (R) will destroy you in short time if you aren't careful.”

iKonek says “He's a mid-lane support with no escape. Punish him whenever possible, but make sure to respect the damage he can do, because that's going to make punishing him very hard.”
0
Rasta Da Masta says “You out range most of his kit. Try to poke him down, but don't try to fight an even-health 2v2 without first poking him down since he is likely to win it with a full combo.”
0
LegendaryOstrich says “Very squishy but has a TON of damage so try to go in on him early game pre-6 in order to capitalize on his squishyness. You can stand near minion waves in order to force him to push the wave but don't be close with your ADC that he is able to hit both of you.”
0
lin00 says “Brand is one of the Mage support who wants to poke you to a point where you can't hard engage on them. He will take over the lane if he is ahead. However, he is really squishy with no escape abilities. 1 good hook should burn his sums or kill him.”
0
Korippo says “Just really obnoxious and super scales by late game, plus his ultimate is very teamfight reliant and helps his team win a majority of the time since it passes around to all enemies within range. His Q stuns targets as well so keep that in mind, though it is a skill shot so it's usually not hard to dodge.”

TheImmortalEye says “his dmg and range make it hard for neeko , skillbased but he has the upper hand”

CorgiBorgi says “He out ranges you and will make you cry. Just try and poke him down with your w to also zone him. Also roam.”

Flackojodye says “Skill matchup, it basically consists of who dies first, and who's adc is better”
0
0Banda says “ Brand is a skilled matchup, but as he is so broken right now you are likely to have problems. Try dodging his W with your E or W if your ADC is not close to you, furthermore, when Brand throws R to you or your ADC NEVER use E as it will bounce between you and your ADC
When you are facing a brand run Second Wind because of he's incredible poke, then just play as usual”
0
Arcurath says “As long as you can dodge his spells with E speed you are fine.
He usually forces waves to push into you from aoe, so he is easy to gank just E double bomb and he dead.”
0
Xexzuz says “Literally just dodge his abilities and you're fine. Oh right his E takes up the whole lane now so just power farm and get jung to gank because they usually over push.”
0
Idleangelo says “"Support btw". Yeah, same with xerath, getting hit by his stun while trading will most likely kill you.”
0
Luiscencias says “He has a LOT of damage output. If he’s ahead buy magic resist. Try not to get stunned and avoid grouping when he ults. If you max w and build renewer you can sort of heal through the damage but there is very much a point of no return if you eat shit early”
0
lenithebot says “Brand has great poke and his r makes it risky to all in since it can bounce from you to your adc or just him. He also offers a bit of hard CC. When you are also going for a minion because of your support item he can punish you with his damage. He does not have to push up since he will run spellthiefs so you can't punish him. If you engage when his cooldowns are down you should win just make sure to dodge his stun.”

millysenpai says “Avoid taking damage in lane and try to poke with Starcall (Q) in chance of him playing more safe in lane.”

Fear The Jester says “Laning hell for your adc, gain bush control so you can see his casting animations, boxblock his stun, lead his ult away with your clone. ”

SorakaMainsDiscord says “Very High poke, and heavy AOE burst potential. Soraka's Q can offset his burn passive and moonstone counters him well”

ARealFakeIdentity says “During the early laning phase Rumble will most likely be poked out of the lane often, get level 6 and roam with your Ultimate.”

Jowoey says “Even bad Brand players are annoying to play against because of how much damage this champion does for no reason. If you have an aggressive adc it might be playable but otherwise just try to be as safe as you can and wait for ganks.”

Guoblide says “Brand is a horrible matchup for Braum due to his massive %Max Hp damage and his AOE spells. Brand is a AP poke mage that is great at dealing burst damage to high HP targets with his Blaze passive. He also has insanely strong teamfighting due to the AOE damage from his 3rd stack of Blaze, Pillar of Flame and Pyroclasm. Brand powerspikes a Level 2 where he gets access to his stun from Sear, 3 where he gets access to procing all 3 stacks of Blaze, and 6 where he gets his burst damage from Pyroclasm. He spikes especially hard against Braum when he completes both Liandry's Anguish and Demonic Embrace due to the %Max HP damage he gets from them. In lane, Braum try to dodge Pillar of Flame and poke a lot with Winter's Bite due to the ADC and Brand being squishy champions with no sustain. Only poke when you know you can land the damage though because Winter's Bite eats up a lot of mana. At Level 2 Braum can unlock Unbreakable. When Brand lands a Pillar of Flame onto an enemy he usually walks up and tries to lane a Sear to proc the stun. If Brand does land a Pillar of Flame on you or the ADC then preemptively walk to your ADC and block the Sear with Unbreakable when he throws it. Once Braum gets to Level 6 try to find a pick with Glacial Fissure if Brand or his ADC is mispositioned as they are both easy to kill and dont have a lot of defensive abilities. After Level 6 try to position away from your ADC and Stand Behind Me to them if they get engaged on. This is because standing too close to your ADC can make it easy for Brand to set up a Pyroclasm that can ricochet between you and your ADC for a ton of damage.”

RayTeamStrategy says “Even though he's very vulnerable to your silence, he has a greater number of engage options than you to compensate for that.

dragonmasterc says “Brand's Q and W outrange your E, and his E will outrange you if you're in a minion wave and he uses it on one. This still gives you proper windows to be able to poke him and his carry. Just bait his abilities by moving in and out of your minion wave and in bushes and find your window.
What makes this matchup even is the power of your shielding. Your E is very useful defensively - so long as you don't accidentally burn yourself in the process, you can stand close to your ADC to maximize your Aery shielding to mitigate Brand's burn damage.”

edkemr says “RUN CONFIDENT RUNES.
Brand has big burst damage and a not that easy stun to land. You outrange him with your Q, but your Ws has similar range, so try to stun him before with E or wait him to use his W before landing yours.
Still, if he fullcombos you, you're gonna say goodbye to half health, if not more. Play with your Q, bully him hard and zone him away from your ADC. Be careful of his R, but during teamfights you should never be in range of that. Be careful when you're casting your Q: he may just run into you and perform a full combo. If played correctly, it's an easy lane, but if he snowballs you have lost it.”

KeleiX13 says “This is one of the matchups where I would take Guardian and Relic Shield, ping my jungle, and give the lane since you won't be able to outdamage his burst and might even risk getting yourself or your ADC killed since he also outranges you. Brand has insane damage and his skillshots will be a little hard to dodge early on since you don't have a lot of movement speed. Thankfully, he is squishy, immobile, and very much gankable. To reduce the damage that he deals in fights, spread out so that his passive explosion and ult doesn't hit other allies.”

You win Brand hard in the mid-late game phase since he can't protect everyone from your engages. All he does is deal damage.”

Xeptron says “Brand is the master of fire and master of ''I WILL ONE SHOT YOU AND YOU HAVE NO OTHER OPTIONS JUST TO DIE''. Yes, that's Brand. In other words, you have to be careful of his poke and abilities. Once his abilities go on a cooldown, you can hook and engage on the target. If you can, it is very advisible to dodge his abilities and engage whenever he is low on mana. He might do a lot of damage but if you are good at dodging his abilities, it will make Brand's life very hard.
What beats a poke? A HARD ENGAGE and that's what Thresh does. Do it once or twice and Brand's gone.”

Hceercs says “Brand has high damage, good poke, and can easily kill you if he gets his combo off(usually E-Q-W, sometimes with R and ignite). Playing against him is mainly baiting/dodging his Q after he uses a spell, and all-inning after.”

GMGZ2 says “All you got to do is use your Q to help dodge and make sure you put boxes in bushes so that he can't sneak attack and get free hits on you. When he uses R, separate from everyone and Q away from everyone or else you will die and might get your allies killed too. Other than that, use your clone to counter his R as well so that it dies and explodes, just make sure it gets near Brand or another enemy so your clone isn't just wasted and be careful when using your clone because you might accidentally get your allies killed by making your clone be an extra body equaling to more burst DMG. So, only use your clone when you know that your allies are away from Brand R. Even though I mentioned these counters, he is just too strong right now. ”

DaejiBulgogi says “Brand is also an annoying threat to Thresh due to his high amount of burst and poke. Similar to Zyra, maintaining priority makes laning against Brand manageable.
Unlike Zyra, Brand is unable to block your hooks and also has no escape. This makes him vulnerable to Thresh's combo.”

STRENGTH: Long-range aoe skills.
WEAKNESS: Low defense.
LANE TACTICS: Poke with long-range skill, stun if the opportunity arises, and end his target with conflagration.
COUNTER TACTICS: Dodge his skills and focus on his ADC. Avoid crowding with minions but don't stay too long in the open.
RECOMMENDED APPROACH: Passive Defense.”

GamingTy12 says “His R can just give anti heal to me and the ADC so if we trying to 2v2 we might lose it at 6 because of that, it makes my R pretty much useless for healing. That is really the only thing he is a threat about since his stun combo can be dodged easily with your move speed. ”

Guoblide says “Brand is a pretty difficult matchup for Sett especially during the laning phase. Sett can out-damage and out-sustain Brand but can't really get close to him at all. Brand can poke Sett in lane and land his skillshots easily because of Sett's big hitbox and low mobility pre- Boots of Swiftness and Dead Man's Plate. Brand can also check bushes without warding because of his Sear and Pillar of Flame. Even if you do remain unseen in a bush he can quickly stun you with his Conflagration and Sear combo. If he does ever stun you he can easily proc Blaze on you and deal massive damage. The worst thing about Brand though is that Blaze makes all of his spells deal 3% of his maximum health over time. If Brand hits Sett he procs Blaze which deals an additional 14-16% of Sett's maximum health. All of Brand's maximum health damage can destroy Sett's health bar and make the laning phase almost unplayable. During laning phase try to stand just out of range of his skill shots. If you see him miss a Sear immediately flash into him and Facebreaker. Once you engage on him and he doesn't have his stun up he is usually a free kill. Once you hit 6 pretend to roam and flank around behind his tower. Use Oracle Lens to disable wards that might spot you out. Flash + The Show Stopper either him or his ADC into your team to get a kill. You can also just roam and get picks in other lanes to help your team out. Go Mercury's Treads if the enemy team has at least 2 other AP champions in Top, Mid, or Jungle. When your jungler ganks and in lane try to spread out from your team to deny the Brand from getting a multi-person Pillar of Flame or Pyroclasm.”

Virtuos0 says “There's a champ in bot lane with longer poke than you, and his name is Brand. In the time you land your Q AA combo on the enemy adc, Brand already has his W Q stun on you, and now you're toast. An easy way to get around this is to plan with your lane partner to focus on Brand early. The less you allow him to poke, the more behind in gold he'll be. Later on in the game you actually end up being a fantastic counter to Brand, as his ult will not pass through your ult. Ulting your team might suck but it also might save them and waste his. Make sure you're keeping communication open.”

Gravixx says “He is very annoying to play against, but manageable. You can out-heal his poke damage if you manage your mana usage well.

MeatFeast says “Brand is another obnoxious champion who can really put the hurt on you during the laning phase. His pillar of flame is a pain to avoid during the early levels and does a surprising amount of damage. Make sure to stand away from your ADC so he has to pick one target. The trick with Brand is to avoid getting hit by more than one spell, if you do so, you will be stunned and take massive burn damage. I rush mobility boots as a priority in this lane so it's easier to dodge his spells. Locket of the Iron Solari is also your friend here so complete that next. Brand can solo kill you so you have to respect his damage, especially when he has his ultimate. You have to just ride out levels 1 - 6 trying to stay in touching distance with the opposing lane. At 6, you can easily blow him up with your Ult combo and ignite . Brand is very squishy and likes to poke so use that to your advantage. Whilst not an easy lane a good Leona should win this most times.”

This is a very passive lane for Alistar, where you won't be able to do much without your jungler.
However, Alistar is one of the most flexible champions in the game.
Through distance management and effective usage of your flash, you could easily get a kill or more bot lane and take control of the lane through your pressure.”

Zefirez says “This guy is nasty. You know the drill - has huge damage, does %max health damage (not good for you), his ult is an anti-grouping tool that feeds off you being along with partner in botlane, and has a stun of his own.
Early levels are all about surviving him. Taking small mresist runes is advised. Dodging his skillshots even more so. Remember that his q (the small forward fireball) can stun you only if he recently landed another spell on you and you're "on fire". Also his big aoe damage passive is triggered when he lands 3 consecutive spells on you. If he misses one (and he doesn't have ult on him, or you know it's on cd), that may be your window for some aggression.
Once you hit 6 though, it's time to go to town on his ass, as he's squishy, has no mobility and isn't half as good at zoning like for example Zyra.
Win or lose in brand lane depends on you and your adc not feeding your assess off pre 6. Do that and his goose is cooked. ”

Ahpulzz says “His passive alone merits Brand a spot in red portion of this list. His passive, Blaze, automatically burns off 8% of your health if any of his abilities touch you, giving him harass that can be especially effective against a bulky tank like yourself. You can't charge at him directly when his skills are up unless you're looking to get stunned and chunked for a sizable portion of your health. However, for all Brand's power he has two weaknesses - a lack of mobility, and high cooldowns. When in a straight up fight, Brand needs ALL of his spells to pull off his combos - just one spell on cooldown makes Brand that much less powerful. Also, he has 0 ways of shipping himself out of a bad situation other than Flash, so look towards your pillar to abuse this fact.”

Chromuro says “Heavy poke champion with hard CCs and dot. You're gonna have a bad time with him in lane. Go ultrasafe, your positioning is the key to survive the matchup. Hope that your ADC isn't too stupid to get picked, you can't really sustain the damage he deal.”

Sona Aria says “You cannot trade ability for ability with Brand. His base damages are too high, and if he procs passive, you can no longer play aggressively. Taking Mr shard is highly recommended, and crucible rush is effective versus him. If he has blaze on you, stay behind minions to avoid the stun. If you get stunned after level 3, you will no longer be able to play the lane. Brand can also buy Morello liandries, which is extremely cancer to play against as any enchanter: 5 seconds of grevious wounds.”

However you can block his Q with a box, just be sure to run from his E>W retaliation. If your box is burning, he can W>E buffer the animation for a quick combo.
The same idea applies with his ult. Always seperate yourself and your clone if he has ult. At a certain point you'll be used to the pick, if so just catch the ult with your clone and run it away, bonus points for right clicking Brand in this time to trick him. ”

Kian987 says “He's a nighmare. Tons of CC, damage, poke, ranged, kill and zoning potential. I usually turtle and wait for the end of laning. Shen but probably any other tanky support cannot stand so much AP/AD damage coming from enemy ADC and Brand. Your early against him is terrible.”

Synk1904 says “Does a lot of damage, and pokes you easily, be careful if you are ablaze because he may stun you and if you die you may spread his E to your adc.”

Zefirez says “He wants to see the world burn, including forests which include bears!
Generally he's a nightmare to any and all tank supports, due to massive max % hp shred on his passive and anti-team ult that bounces between targets.
Key to fighting his guy is avoiding his skillshots and then hard engaging and killing him before he kills you.
His only stun (the simple fireball shooting in a line) will not work if he didn't hit you with another spell first and you're taking damage over time from his passive as result. Also it's a skillshot that can be blocked by minions.
If he failed to do land and stun you - that's your que to engage! As for items - Mercury Threads, Adaptive Helmet and/or Locket of Iron Solari recommended.
Also keep in mind, that unlike most tanks (which he is not btw), Voli sports very high base movement speed - in trained hands this can lead to many missed skillshots on Brand's part!”

Qwerty19 says “The burn.... it hurts. Try to dodge and bait his w so he runs oom and then engage when he can't do damage. I buy boots earlier for extra move speed and depending on the skill of the brand I might build mr before i get into knightsvow. Definitely merc treads though.”

SpicySkelleton says “I don't remember when he became viable for support or when ever he became as a popular support pick but he can be either a major threat or just some idiot soon to become easy money for your team. As a mage he can safely poke you and your adc while being in the safe confines of his wall of filthy lesser minions while your obviously superior and glorious children minions get slaughtered by his adc who will most likely be Yasou or Ezreal. Avoid his abilities and try to get your adc to wave clear as much as possible to set up a grab to take him down, if you take him first his adc can't do really anything against you & your adc and will retreat to tower, the more often hes dead the more often you can push lane. Also if you and your teamates are low hp or half and hes fed for wall that is good and holy in this god forsaken game, keep away form your allies if he does his R on you or your teammate next to you. If not it will lead to having your team too damaged to stay in a teamfight or having them all killed.”

FearlessGames says “Brand is Karma on steroids and will poke you down fast pre-3. Just play safe, and try to prevent your ADC from biting the dust.”

Lonxu says “He has a ton of poke, huge base damage, stun!
Basically you need to avoid the W then fuck him up with your spells.
That's about it. And also somehow have more sustain than him( the runes, refillable potion?).
Level 6 it comes down to who lands the combo first for kills. Often it might be traded kills.

Tips Against Brand in Middle Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Atemporal says “Não deixe Brand cutucar você no nível 1, fique para trás e não o deixe acertar um W ou obter um E em você de graça, pelo menos faça ele trabalhar para isso. Você pode tentar negociar já no nível 2, se ele pegou W no nível 2, então você E para frente assim que ele usar W e então
rápido E Q automático e executado. Você quer trocar neste confronto basicamente sempre que ele não puder atordoá-lo, então se o Q dele estiver baixo, você vai, se o W e o dele estiverem baixos, você vai. Você também pode ir se ele desperdiçar apenas 1 habilidade. Por exemplo, se ele usa E ou W no
wave então apenas insta W e E Q auto run trade. W pode atordoar, mas não importa o que absorva parte de seu dano. Ele é hiper imóvel, então aterrissar W é muito realista. E longe do W dele se estiver prestes a acertar, nunca deixe ele te cutucar de graça.
A marca E foi alterada há pouco tempo para se espalhar para os inimigos ao redor do alvo principal, não importa o que aconteça, não subestime a propagação E. Ser atingido por apenas uma única habilidade aplicará a passiva de queimadura e o dividirá por um pouco de hp, e você deseja
cada ponto de saúde para permitir que você pule nele sempre que quiser. Seu waveclear é muito melhor que o dele, é difícil para Brand acertar a onda inteira com W, então procure por empurrões fortes se ele não parecer matável. Você supera ele super forte
e ele é fácil de pegar com Ws e combos rápidos mais tarde. Depois de pegar o Rocketbelt, não há muito que ele possa fazer quando você chegar nele. Use Rocketbelt para correr para ele/através dele para evitar seu atordoamento Q. Merc Threads são uma opção contra ele se
o resto de sua equipe também tem algum dano CC/Magic, mas lembre-se de que usar Merc Threads sempre significa que você sacrifica muito dano.”

SanyGame says “Almost the same as Xerath, but with a shorter range. Dodge his skill shots and avoid the stun at all costs, as he can easily oneshot you in the mid game. Don't stand too close to your turrets while you're low on health, as his ult can bounce off of them right at you.”
0
Spoomk says “Brand can do a lot of burn, but you can engage on him fairly safely, unless you are already ablaze. As long as you can engage and have a means of extracting yourself from the situation or confirming a kill, he shouldn't be too difficult.”

You outscale him.”

SKYTOP. says “Take the AP Burst Page.
Not as bad as Anivia, but good brands can be a problem. His cc is quite easy to dodge tho, and you can kill him at 6 if you play it right.”

SkyBanana says “A rare mid laner to go against. He is mostly annoying via poke with his WE and passive. You will out scale him since he is known as a suicidal all in champion. Even though you want to group up, against him I suggest you don't until you eliminate him first then group up and deal with the enemy team. He isn't bad to go against just annoying at times. You'll be fine.”

DixonTheGuideMaker says “Try and stay behind the minion wave but not in it. This will force Brand to choose between harassing you with his Pillar of Flame(W) or pushing the wave. This is also a good place to stand as the minions will block his Sear(Q). Don’t let Brand harass you for free. Try and stand back and out of range of him so he’s unable to attack and harass you with his Pillar of Flame(W). Ensure that you remain healthy otherwise you’ll never be able to fight him. A good time to fight Brand is when he’s out of mana or has an ability on cooldown. This will make trading much better for you as he will not be able to dish out a lot of damage (or possibly stun you if his Sear(Q) is on cooldown) as he’ll have 1 less ability to use.”

Hot Eboy Xerath says “Brand is very easy to face as he is very squishy and you completely outrange him. After finishing you first item, you will notice that you can almost always just press your ultimate and if you land all of them you can 100-0 him.”

Xexzuz says “Literally just dodge his abilities and you're fine. Oh right his E takes up the whole lane now so just power farm and get jung to gank because they usually over push.”

AkiraHopeXDDDD says “Pretty squishy, Dodge all his abilities and one shot him when he has no more abilities
He does a ton of damage so.
Buy hex drinker or mercs if needed Null orb will also work.”

Bughans says “He has no direct cc, so he can't prevent your combo, however it can be dangerous to get close to him due to his R and his ability to stun you AFTER you engage. Make sure he dies if you engage on him.”

KayyeN says “Not many people play Brand mid in 2022 but if they do, it won't be fun. He can constantly poke you by casting W-E on the wave. If you jump to a dagger, you can try dodging his skillshots with the movespeed from your W. but if his monitor is on, either his W or Q will hit you. You can't stay close to him either because you will eat his full R, automatically losing the fight. On the other hand, if you jump away to a minion and you don't time it well, his R will instead bounce between you and the minion, still dealing a ton of damage to you.”

Edex_StarsUpYourASol says “Early Game:
Brand can outtrade you, so wait for him to use his abilities on wave to trade, or just insta clear wave so that Brand has to use abilities on wave.
For the most part, if you are healthy, try to kill him. If you aren't, shove and roam sidelanes
Mid/Late Game:
Brand becomes an absolute monster as he can aoe your team heavily, but you are also an extremely strong aoe but with the added bonus of burst. Try to burst Brand down before he can do much and if he ult zhonyas, go zhonyas as well to prevent the other damage around you two.”

Zarasaras says “He can push waves a lot and do Max life damage otherwise nothing really scary”

Body Those Fools says “You outrange him. Try to side-step his W. If he Ws the wave, make sure you don't stand near it because he can E and it will spread to you. It's hard to all-in him because his Ult can bounce off of him and then he can stun you. Just poke him down, then all-in him when he's low enough for the kill.”

Super08131208 says “Brand will try to poke up out with his W, or spread his E onto you and then stun you. His passive burn will show a afterimage of you in your shroud. At level 2-6, as long as Brand doesn't stun you and you hit your E he can't do too much as he is an immobile champ.

Ahri Simplord says “This is a pretty even lane. You can't really reach him pre 6 if he spaces well cause he has higher range than you do,after 6 you dont want to be on top of him on an all in since his R will bounce off him and back to you. Never stop moving in order to avoid his W and try to stay away from your minnions whenever he uses W on them cause his E can hurt pretty bad if he has Liandry's completed. He's pretty immobile and usually wants to step up to use his abilities so he's a priority target to pick off with your E.”

TcKatfish says “[Press The Attack Runes / Long Sword and Refillable Pots start.] Brand has a lot of poke with his E being able to bounce off the wave and hit you at large distances. However he has high cooldowns especially early. If he ever uses his Q or W, all in him immediately. So long as he doesn't get his passive off on you you will win this trade. Post 6 you do not want to fight him unless you have Immortal Shieldbow up. Same rules apply to all in him when he uses his cooldowns.”
0
lonestar1870 says “He has high base damage, but the matchup is similar to Annie since you outrange him.
Make sure to stand away from minions when he can E to spread blaze to you and so he can't W you and the wave at the same time. This leaves you vulnerable to his Q (stun), so be careful and make sure to dodge it.
You easily oneshot him at lvl 6 with a 6 ball ult if you can land 1-2 Q's on him.
He is easy to gank and you can set up a freeze easily if your jungler is nearby.
Banshees can be good if you need some MR since he does a lot of damage.
Electrocute and Comet are fine in this matchup, but PR works well in high elo. Any summs are fine.”

WayOfTheTempesst says “This matchup is really easy, provided you can dodge his Q and W. Take very short trades with him and he will
never be able to full combo you. Not very many people play this champ outside of support, so you will rarely
ever play against Brand mid. Don't Q3 into him or he will full combo you.”
0
WayOfTheTempesst says “Pretty easy lane. Windwall his Q. You can E out of his W. Get Null-Magic Mantle if you aren't confident in Windwalling his Qs. He will try to E Q you when you E towards him, so just EQ then Windwall to block the Q. When Ulting him, E through him right away to get a better angle so his Q is a lot easier to Windwall.”

Katawina52 says “Pretty easy matchup thanks to your mobility so always move sporadically when he tries to hit his spells. Mercs vs brand is really good if they have more sources of CC. All in if he doesn't have his Q up. ”

Drewmatth Taliyah says “Start Doran + 2 Pots if 1) You think you can outplay her and hit your W's to generate a kill at levels 3-5 or 2) You think she will burst you down post 6 (get an extra ring).
Start Corrupting if you think you will not hit your W's (or you will get poked down) and you rely more on wave clear/spammy poke (you will be way more squisher but more durable -- this is recommended if you are sure you will not get hit by CC spells and instantly die).
Relatively easy matchup but you can still be killed if he hits his stun. Predict that and go for the kill. Roam if you cannot kill him but push your lane first. Stay away from minions when he casts R (or teammates, of course).”

Polarshift says “Outdamages you, but you can easily setup a gank for your jungler. If you dodge his Q pre-6 you can get close, otherwise not. Remember that his R counts as a third stack too. His passive is actually dodgeable with your ult if you havent been stunned by his Q. I don't remember the timing, but I think you have to predict it and use it just before his passive applies to you.”
0
LunarVortex says “His poke is very annoying, but his lack of mobility also makes him vulnerable to your kit. Make sure not to waste your E on poke unless you're absolutely sure you won't need it otherwise.”
0
Curt Mcbeltpants says “Brands early damage will make you lose trades and they usually run ignite, just make sure to stand behind minions to avoid the stun if you are already on fire from his burn.”
0
Yeager says “His range can be quite annoying but luckily his main poke (Q and W) are skillshots. Rush tier 2 boots(Mercs) right after lost chapter and this lane will be easy. Brand usually builds rylais chapter and liandries because of its synergy with the passive, so you will be hit by slows into stuns during fights. Mercs helps with that, but if it isn't enough, then cleanse is. ”

Fuzzmonkey says “Leblanc struggles a little bit since her revert. With Brand he can ult you and it will bounce between you and your passive clone(once he gets you low enough), so make sure to steer your clone away from yourself to avoid the bounce damage.

Akali187 says “You destroy him with one combo. Care for his stun and ult. Use your E to dodge his stun while simultaneously landing your E on him, than continue with your combo. If he is fed all it takes is one ability and you will be vulnerable as Akali is Squishy.”

iZianni says “You might get poked, but you can cast spells while moving making it extremely difficult for brand to land a full combination.
If you're capable of landing a Q/E in this match up it's a guaranteed kill.
Remain off-center from minion wave and try to avoid unnecessary damage before all-inning after a few short trades. Brand has no mobility either :)

Both of you will deal lots of damage later ont he game but perhhaps he has a bigger teamfight presence. Be careful of that and full combo if you need to. His lack of mobility is still and issue for him, abuse it”

Dr Eggmund says “Hate this champion with my entire soul oh my lord. Your main priority is to avoid his combo at all costs this means his BS Aoe attack and his stun.

Sylvan Lore says “Brand is a matchup very similar to Ahri in your early trading. He has good range and you want to make sure that when he is poking with his W that he is forced to make the decision between pushing the wave and damaging you. At the same time though, standing beside your wave leaves you at threat for a stun which is in almost all cases a lost trade. If you ever find yourself in a 1v1 without a wave nearby after level 6 it is possible to win, but in generally he out damages you. You will out-scale him with utility and a bunch of other advantages, but should your team clump poorly he can destroy a teamfight. Barrier can be good if you feel afraid in this matchup but I also think his kill pressure isn't so high that teleport isn't an option. Merc treads or Banshee's Veil work if you do fall behind and are struggling to hold your own against him. ”

duhnx says “This is the same as Azir, good poke but Brand actually has kill pressure. If you dodge his Q you can kill him most of the time but be cautious. Brand can intsa kill you if you don't play it right. Just take an early Hexdrinker to counteract this.”

Katasandra says “[1] Dodging his Q is No.1 priority, especially if you are affected by his passive.
[2] Don't stand in the minion wave. So he can't W you + minions.
[3] It's impossible to stay out of range of his E (esp when minions are ablaze). Accept that you will be poked in this matchup.”

StarTundra says “Brand has high damage and is difficult to avoid as your movement options are limited.

luminyan says “Brand is another skill matchup in my eyes. If you bring Barrier and hide behind minions, his stun is irrelevant. Try and dodge his W if you can, or if you can't use your own W to mitigate the damage. Zhonya's is ESSENTIAL here, as it can save your life if he ults you. ”

Aethlo says “Brand has the wave clear advantage. ||
Brand loses pre-3 ||
Brand wins pre-6 ||
Brand loses slightly post-6 ||
Annie and Brand have equal scaling. ||
TIP: Brands love to shove waves effortlessly by E-W the caster minions and then proceed to bombard you with his 3 part combo whilst you farm under tower. You can use his excessive AOE to your advantage - let him AOE the wave and notify your jungle that he is pushing. Due to his immobile nature you can easily secure a kill with a few ganks. DO NOT GET HIT BY HIS Q (stand behind minions). ||
BONUS: Rush Sorc shoes to increase your chances of dodging her spells.”

Kirito OTP Xerath says “En caso de enfrentarlo en la Mid-Lane lo más probable es que ganes la linea con relativa facilidad ya que Brand debe decidir si pockearte o farmear, en caso de enfrentarlo como soporte, deberías jugar con cabeza, este campeón tiene mucho daño, especialmente a Nivel 6, y al no tener que farmear puede enfocarse en su totalidad en acerté daño a ti.”

elnino9 says “Learn to avoid his abilities. Dodge his W and you will be alright as this is his highest damaging spell and it is what he will max. Starting boots here helps to avoid his skillshots. Careful when getting hit by his E engulf. He can set ablaze minions to poke this way, don't get too close. Get aggressive if his abilities are on CD.

wildersovereign says “Brand Mid is a thing again thanks to his recent buffs, but if you play smart you should be fine. His poke with W is exceptionally annoying, but once you get Lost Chapter, Morgana can actually farm from outside his W range with Tormented Shadow spam. Remember that his Q only stuns you if you're Ablaze (hit by another ability), but position around your minions accordingly. You win the all-in, but keep an eye on the enemy jungler before you go in for the kill. You'll want to use your E to block his Q stun, which leaves you open to CC from his jungler.”

Aikairi says “Same thing with Ahri. Try to dodge his stun when he uses his E or his W to hit you. You can also shunpo when you see his W which is very telegraphed. Make sure to zigzag around so his stun is harder to hit, and if he misses it, try to go all-in on him as he doesn't have any form of mobility to escape with. Be careful of his post-6 burst as due to his recent buffs he is very strong in 1 v 1s tho.”

In lane you want to avoid getting poked, and you absolutely want to avoid his Q. With his Q down he is vulnerable so try to trade or all in when it is down.

Celerity is a good option against Brand and you can also go for a boots start instead of Dorans Ring. Consider going for a ROA in this match-up and if the enemy team-comp allows, a Zhonya's Hourglass can go a long way for saving your life multiple times. Be careful of his ultimate bouncing between you and your team-mates during ganks / skirmishes and team-fights. If he gets ahead of you by a few kills, you can be in for a touch time.”

Veralion says “HoB/beads. Almost always goes support nowadays, shouldn’t be too bad, but he does tons of damage and can be very unforgiving. Save W to yeet out of his pillar and never get EQ’d and you’re good. Be careful when walking up for farm, as a good Brand will put his pillar down right in your path expecting you to run into it. Feint walking up and bait it out beforehand if possible; that ability seriously hurts. I’m pretty sure he just explodes you instantly if you ult on top of him at 6 out of the blue, let him stun you, and guarantee him a full combo, so don’t do that. Wait for him to use spells on the wave (especially E, his EQW combo is what makes him truly dangerous), then charge him and R when you’re too close to miss. He has no mobility; you will easily catch and absolutely melt him. If your jungler swings by and lands some CC, you will kill him before it expires. ”

Brand can counter Neeko by most of his abilities, she is a very squishy champion and when he lands his abilities, he casts the burning effect.”

Lil Tidepod says “Brand can do a lot of damage, but should only be able to kill you early in the game unless he's fed. Your shield will negate a lot of his damage once you pop it during your combo. Simply push him under turret and look for roams, or if he's low get a dive from your jungler right after you bait out his stun.”

EvilBird090 says “Brand is like Ahri, a lot of skillshots, don't forget to pool his stun, after that you should be gucci. Look to all in him after 6 since he is immobile. If confident push him under turret, poke him when he goes for CS and when half HP, engage on him under tower.”

Cloud375 says “His abilities hurt and have a longer range than your's do. No more explaining needed. If you reach the point where you have enough items, you can beat him fairly easily, but the question is if you can make it out of laning phase and if the Brand is fed or not.”

Fox1ne says “Match-up is pretty easy since he has one skill shot and let's say another one with W,so his kit mostly depends on his passive and q stun,most good brand mains going E - q combo but still the only thing you have to watch out is his q and you'll be safe. After 6 you melt him easily.”

ClemexD10 says “I personally hate this champ going ADC, but don't worry, against him, you will need to dodge his W when he is poking and, once you hit lvl 6, go ahead, far away from your minions so his R don't hits you more. You MUST dodge his Q if you are burned, since if he hits it he will make you a roasted fox in just 2 secs.”
0
kilgta says “You should be fine into him. He will try to poke you a lot. Farm when your shield is up. He is one of the hardest champion at level 1 and 2. You just have to accept that you farm under tower if he lands his abilities on you. He can allin you at level 2 if you take too much damage. If the brand in front of you doesnt harass you level 1 to 3, work towards killing him, he is a bad brand. Start corrupt pot or sapphire if hes not a good brand (low amount of games on the champ)”
0
unownreality says “he has just as much damage on you. More of a skill match-up. Watch for pillar and hard engage if you see Brand miss his stun, or 2 back to back abilities. Long term trades are required. He burns through mana pretty fast (pun intended)”
0
MechaaZero says “In my opinion this is a free line. He has to go in the open to land his skillshots if you play the wave right, so landing your E into a Q or an R,Q for massive damage becomes really easy.”
0
CC Diana says “As a completely immobile and squishy champion, Brand can be an easy lane for Diana if you play smart. Brand's stun is incredibly telegraphed as it travels in a straight line so treat it like how you would treat Blitzcrank hooks and stand behind minions if you are set ablaze. Even if Brand misses his W, Pillar of Flame he can still easily stun you with an EQ combo so don't dive in recklessly. Brand players will often opt for Rod of Ages or Abyssal Mask as their mana item which can make killing them extremely difficult. If this happens to be the case - push the wave in and roam.”

maplecat21 says “He does a lot of damage, but he's outscaled at boots. ”

RagexAddict says “Much like Annie and Ahri, Brand is more of a skill matchup for Fizz. The key is to avoid his Q at all costs, especially if he has previously hit you with his W, E, or R abilities as this will stun you and open you up to a full combo from him. The best way to take him on is to hold your E for as long as you possibly can. When he throws his ult at you or your minion wave, use your E when it's traveling towards you. It may take some good timing in order to dodge it, but if you do, the ultimate bounce will end and it will be on a full CD. This will allow you to counter attack with ease.”

SrSuders says “Brand kann schon schwierig werden, jenachdem wie die Skillshots sitzen.

BicBee says “Stay away from minions and other people when Brand ults because it'll bounce. It's hard to predict when and where he'll use his W (circle thing) so if you're having a hard time stay away from the minions and make him choose to CS with the skill or harass. Wait till 6 if you want to solo him. Shoving lane and roaming would be a good option as well. ”

AzureArmatt says “You don't see him often on mid lane these days but he's still champion that's a midlaner. His kit focus on applying debuff on his target for extra effects and trying to land 3 abilities in order to get extra damage from passive. His passive is simply mini ignite that will deal magic damage over time. While you are "burning" if brand hits his abilities on you they will receive bonuses (Q will stun you, W will deal more damage and E will set more target ablaze next to you. if brand stack this passive on you up to 3 stacks circle will appear around you, that's an area of explosion that will deal damage to the targets next to you so don't stay close to your teammates when having that on you. You can win against brand when you buy Magic resist (banshe's veil is good paired with mercury's treads to reduce stuns) and don't let yourself being hit by his abilities too much (they have long delays). if you manage to do just that it's easy win”

OmegaSquadVeigar says “As long as you dodge his Q and W you should be fine and just beat him due to him having about the same range as you do.
Avoid getting close to other teammates in teamfights due to his huge AoE damage.
You should be able to win against him without much trouble due to being able to just burst him if he gets close.”

thedonk says “Avoid getting stunned by his E, as well as dodge all of his skillshots. He wouldn't be much of a problem if it wasn't for the interaction of your clone and his R. If he ults, you go under 40% hp and your clone will spawn and it will bounce back and forth between you two.”
0
Valor_Chaos says “certainly annoying, but if he burns his q early then just walk up and hit him. He wont do shit to you. Once you get 6 you can melt him with passive and ult if you need to. A safer solution is to wait till 11 but thats true for everyone”

overweight_zoe says “Not very scary for zoe if you're decent at dodging abilities. Stronger wave clear and mobility will help you shut him down. Deep wards are your friends as you can easily one shot Brand crossing through the jungle.”

apsonalol says “Começa com bota e desvia das suas skill shots, procure sempre pokear ele depois de usar o W é a única skill que incomoda muito, brand tem um problema é que no lvl 6 ele não precisa acerta nada em você, só o E e R, as 2 são target então, fica complicado, mas se você tiver um bom inicio de jogo e tirar ele da lane várias vezes, você ganhará a match up.”

moutenn says “You have to be fast on your feet. Bait him to waste his w, by acting like you are gonna take a minion, and back of before you hit it. (If he times it to hit you when you try and get a minion, just let the minion go. There is no reason to lose 1/3 of your hp for it.) An easy way to kill most brands, is to send out your combo (w-e-q). His instict will tell him to get returndamage on you. Reactivate your w and start going on him. He will have nothing left to do against you (unless he stand with minions and you get hit by his r over and over again.) If you just go for him (r first) prioritize to juke his q. The stun allows him, to get a full combo on you - you will die. If you are not confident you can go hexdrinker. (Dont build in to Maw until way later. There is no reason to because you just want the effect of hexdrinker.)

Sozzoh says “Brand has more zoning and poke in the early game, so be a bit careful in lane. If you can, push lane as hard as you can and negate farm from Brand by either zoning him off or poking him. Brand has no mobility, and is very mana hungry in the early game, so while still being careful, poke him from a distance. Don't clump in teamfights near brand, or else he'll unleash his full combo and obliterate your entire team.”
