Can We Please Do Something About Brand Support?

First off, I will like to point out that I do not believe Brand is overpowered. Nor do I believe that you CANT win against him. However, what I do believe is that Brand support is WAY too oppressive. His base damage for his "W" makes laning against him a chore. You practically have to give up a ton of cs just to keep from being obliterated by him. If you focus the enemy adc, Brand blows you up. If you focus Brand, the adc gets free damage on you and/or a kill [or two, if everything fails].

What I ask is that we either:

A) Nerf the base damage on his "W" B) Increase the mana cost of his "W" C) Decrease the size of the "W" D) Two or more of the above

What do you guys think? Is this (or are these) fair and/or necessary changes?

Lower base damage on ult and up ap ratio so low ap doesn't nuke entire teams

Lengthen the delay on his W between cast and activation at early levels. That way you can still react to it early on and not constantly get nuked because you have no boots or mobility. Then over time it gets harder to do so as the delay shortens.

Leona. Thresh. Hell morgana. Pyke probably wrecks brand too. Anyone that can hard engage will usually destroy him. And no, his passive doesnt counter leona or thresh. Its not good enough on its own to kill them, and brand will have died too many times before 6 to get his ult powerspike.

He is very toxic to the game as support and they have not nerfed him. Thing is he is a Midlaner. ONLY reason he is bot lane is because of his Stun.

Remove the Stun and give him instead a movement boost and he is back to midlane like he should be and out of bot lane.
