I'm concerned with Landry's Torment changes and Brand

Unique Passive: Torment

Max Health as bonus damage increased from 1% to 1.5%

Burn damage changed from [doubled] to [2.5%]

I agree with the buff to the item as it feels quite weak (after trying it out in a couple games) but this is going to be a massive direct buff to Brand. He's already dealing a lot of the damage without the item, and it's even higher once he has the item.

If these changes go live, and Brand doesn't receive any compensation nerfs for this change he's going annihilate teamfights on his own, if he doesn't already do that.

Imo they should just remove his 3 passive stacks, it's totally unecessary and just overkill damage. This is what makes him broken both in teamfights and in duels

Literally Auto-Wins Bot-lane as a "support" against most matchups.

Even a Jungler can't gank because he can just press point-to-click R to slow everyone and to deal enormous damage, and his ADC can just follow up to finish them off.

Due to this, I believe it's the only full build mage that is potentially able to pentakill with a single spell rotation due to this passive, especially that the passive procs itself (meaning if the "explosion" affects an ally, it can proc itself another explosion, which is pure bs)

Not quite sure what you mean.

If you get 3 stacks and touch an ally that has 2 stacks, the explosion of the 3 stacks will proc the 3rd stack on the ally, if it's more clear

That can't be right. It doesn't mention anything like that in Brands Passive (on LoL Wiki).

None of Brand's abilities affect his allies.
