It's time to actually Nerf Brand.
It's not even execusable any more, Brand needs to be nerfed into the ground. That champion is the most brain dead auto win button I have ever seen in any lane he's taken in. As for my credentials I main support and fill jungle. Inb4 crying brand mains come crying let me lay down some knowledge on yall.
Brand is not a squishy champion. At full build he can have upward of 2500 hp including his stupid high armor. And thats just a normal build, not including zhonyas and archangels. I've even seen Brand face tank a fed Jax and win.
Immobility does not matter. You can kite with your stun, and by that time he has already killed the entire enemy team.
Low mana does not balance him. 1 combo at level 3 can do 50 percent of most champions hp, not including ignite or jg support. With that kind of power he shouldn't have abundant mana.
Skillshots missing are not balance. Good players dont miss, and he has a stun to make it easier, and 2 point and click garunteed damage abilities. The skillshots are very wide and not difficult to land either, so buzz off with "skill" shots.
Melee champions do not have counterplay vs Brand. Just W under his feet, stun, 1 shot. Literally impossible to miss.
Brand does not have problems clearing waves of minions. At 1 item he can 2 shot any wave of minions, no matter how large.
Brand does %Max hp, AOE, Burst, Sustain damage. This is never acceptable. He's like vayne except its the entire team and not just 1 person.
Brand's ult has very, VERY little counterplay. Summoners rift is not large enough for teams to feasibily engage spread out far enough to avoid it, not every champion is a mage with zhonyas, and it bounces off of minions. Not to mention the absurd damage it does to everyone, including tanks and those stacking mr. Brand's ult outclasses every other teamfight ult by far.
has to stand inside the enemy team to hit,
ult can be avoided or flashed through,
can be stunned or ccd out of his etc. Brand can point and click, 1 and done. His ult does more in teamfights than some entire champions.
Brand being nerfed recently is not an excuse to not nerf again. See
.
Brand is not a weak. Brand is a cancer to league, and must be removed as soon as possible. You will not change my mind on this, or anyone's.
Anyone that defends Brand just enjoys the free Elo from point and click vaporising of entire enemy teams.
-Suggested nerfs: For god's sake remove his passive. Replace it with something along the lines of he stuns after landing 3 consecutive abilities. Anything but % max hp on aoe burst sustain damage.
His ult can bounce only once off 1 champion and cannot chain to more than 2 minions.
Reduce the cast range of W. He has so much hp and resists, he could stand to stand a little closer.
Make his point and clicks skillshots, or at leas projectiles so champs like
could stop it.
If he's weak after that, buff the non canceous parts of his kit, like movespeed, ap scaling, mana regen, etc.
It's time Riot. Get rid of Brand bot lane and put him where he belongs.
) and is instantly nerfed while bot has to endure all the rejected midlaners for years at a time
Psst, hey bro, I think you forgot that there's an item counter to Brand!
