Dear Riot

will brand ever get updated? or at least patched? Been Trying the Champ recently and i like him but i feel hes just not viable mostly because his weakness are very big and his kit is one of the oldest in the game* not the oldest but you get the point* his strengths are nice but i feel like other mages compared to him do way better cause of 1 thing sustain.

Brand Brand Strengths

Brand has one of the highest bursts Brand has terrifying AOE CC damage A skill shot stun that last 2 seconds and a health % burn

Brand weakness Cool Downs no mobility Mana problems No sustain at all Low health Regen one of the lowest in the game i think Ultra Squishy

I just feel like Right now in the current state of the game compared to other midlaners brand just isnt that strong of a pick i personally think its just his lack of sustain

if brand at least was patched with a slight increase to his health regen i feel like he would at least be able to keep up better.

it wouldn't take away from what brand is a burst mage glass cannon but would at least make him more fun to play cause right now i feel like "i have to build a defensive item or else" cause hes soo squishy its just terrifying i understand brand has his weakness and needs some like all champions do but this just kinda stupid causemost other glass cannon type champs at lv 18 cant get 10% of there health rektd just by attacking blue buff

cause right now brand can get hit my minions at lv 18 and they still hit him like a truck like lv 1

please rito lend me your voice on this matter

I think he's fine as he is. Generally you'll be building a Liandries and Zhonya's and really that's all he needs. The only way the enemy AP can get to you to exploit you probably low MR is by having to get into your back lines where you should be and they shouldn't.

Well I won 7/10 Brand games recently. (I didnt build a single Mana-Item btw) - So i wont consider him outdated or weak. Especially after the latest Itemchanges rushing item 3151 into item 3116 is extremely powerfull.

Terrifying AOE CC? What? His only CC is a single targeted stun.

Cool Downs no mobility Mana problems No sustain at all Low health Regen one of the lowest in the game i think Ultra Squishy

Much like every other mage's problems.
