Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior mobility and range advantage, as Brand is immobile and vulnerable to your Q poke while his abilities are easier to dodge.
- Post-6 you maintain the advantage since your R gives you multiple gap closers and escape options while Brand's R can be negated by proper positioning and mobility.
How to Trade
- Your optimal trading pattern involves using Q for poke when Brand uses abilities on minions, then looking for E-W-Q combos when he's out of position.
- Always use your superior range to harass while staying outside his Q-W range, and use movement speed from Q to dodge his skillshots.
Wave Control
- You want to maintain a neutral to slightly pushed wave state to have room to dodge Brand's abilities while still being able to roam.
- Avoid hard shoving unless you can immediately roam, as Brand can easily clear waves and you become vulnerable to ganks without escape tools on cooldown.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never use your R aggressively unless you're certain you can secure the kill, as it's your only escape tool against Brand's high burst damage.
- Don't get hit by his Q stun as it guarantees his full combo, and avoid fighting in minion waves where his abilities can spread and amplify damage.
