Who Wins
- Pre-6: You win by nullifying Brand's engage with E and enabling Caitlyn's range advantage through protection and follow-up CC.
- Post-6: You maintain control through better disengage and pick potential, though their AOE damage becomes more threatening in extended fights.
Synergy & Trading
- Use Q when Brand steps forward for poke, then follow with W and call for Caitlyn's damage while he's rooted.
- Save E reactively for Brand's Q rather than using it proactively, as timing the spell shield correctly shuts down their entire engage pattern.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Roam when Caitlyn has established a freeze or significant wave advantage, typically after level 6 when your R provides strong gank setup.
- Best timings are when enemies are low and forced to recall, allowing safe roams to mid or river for vision control.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't use E preemptively without seeing Brand's Q animation, as good Brands will bait it out with W poke first.
- Avoid standing directly behind Caitlyn against Jinx rockets, as you'll both take AOE damage and lose your ability to protect her effectively.
