All Brand has is the damage he outputs. With the rework, I'm afraid Riot will take that away from him.
I'm not sure how I feel about the rework yet, but I feel like Riot may have reduced his damage on his abilities to allow for his passive.
Guess I'll have to wait for Surr@20 to tell me how bad they hit him
TheSushian1 votesHis damage numbers are thematically the same. The only real change they did was add a duration explosive to the passive so it impacted the teamfight more. He'll be the same regardless (he'll still be the aoe firemage we know, just with an added passive that makes teamfighting under his aoe much more dangerous).
Voidac1 votesThey lowered the damage on his Q, E, and Ult. He already had problems fighting people 1v1 which I guess is just one of his weaknesses.
I don't like how his passive burn does less damage either.
