Brand Support??????

Cons: He has no sustain / no defensive skills other than a stun that requires him to land another ability first.
Pros: All the damagez which is bad as you can steal kills from the ADC simply by landing abilities and your passive killing people.

Brand support is like a lower tier Annie support. He has much more poke damage, and is extremely good against tanks because of his passive, but poking hard with Brand will push the wave hard. Plus, you only have 1 unreliable form of hard CC.

Basically, by picking Brand support, you're looking for a kill lane with less utility (kinda like Zyra). He'll definitely be extremely annoying because his poke will be very strong, but as support with less AP in general, you'll just be a lesser version of midlane Brand. (Unlike, say, Annie or Morg, who bring much more utility.)

goes oom quick, but you should be able to get the support and adc to recall early if not kill them outright. you play to push them out of lane early game, and to still do good damage late game.

As a mid laner who doesn't support much I love taking him bot lane to supp if I have to because the play style feels familiar and you can actually burst people unlike most supports. You don't really push the wave unless you're bad, you use your W to poke behind their minion line not on top of it, if you can hit both of them with it consistently you'll just push them out of lane. Save your Q stun if they try to dive you or if the adc is low enough to kill, don't just blow it. Try to get lv 6 before them then just burst down their adc in an all in and that lane is over.
