Who Wins
- You win trades at all stages through superior range and consistent poke damage with Q-W.
- Post-6 your R gives you even more kill pressure and zone control, maintaining your advantage throughout laning.
How to Trade
- Use Q to poke and clear waves while staying at maximum range, then follow with W when Brand tries to engage.
- Space aggressively but always keep escape routes open for when he lands W.
Wave Control
- Maintain slow pushes to keep Brand under tower where he struggles to engage, using your range to poke him while he farms.
- Clear waves quickly when he roams to minimize his map impact.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't get caught in melee range where Brand's full combo can 100-0 you, and avoid face-checking brushes where he might be waiting.
- Never use your escape abilities carelessly as Brand's all-in potential is lethal without them.
