Who Wins
- You lose most direct trades due to Brand's superior damage and range, but can survive lane through W sustain and careful positioning.
- Post-6 the matchup becomes even more difficult as Brand's R can easily kill you if you're caught out of position.
How to Trade
- Use Q defensively when Brand tries to engage, then immediately W yourself to heal back damage taken.
- Only trade aggressively when Brand wastes his Q, as this gives you a window to land your own Q and proc your E passive safely.
Wave Control
- Focus on farming safely under tower and using W to sustain through Brand's poke rather than trying to match his push.
- Let the wave come to you where you're safer from all-ins and can farm more effectively with tower assistance.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never try to match Brand's roam timing as you lack the waveclear to push and follow quickly enough.
- Don't waste mana on aggressive Q attempts when Brand has his abilities up, as missing leaves you vulnerable to his full combo.
