For a bouncing projectile, like Ryze E, if it targets champions naturally then Brands could just bounce it of a minion and then onto a champ then minion then champ then etc. Besides it already does that once if you land it on them, since it procs his passive.

What the F**k does Ryze have to do with anything here. We're talking bout Brand, now how Ryze builds.

Sorry I apparently replied to the wrong comment.

No need to be rude about it though.

cause it be BROKE as FUCK if it did either of those. Thats why u gotta land a good W so you can hit multi people with E and stun one with Q then cast R, and watch it bounce between all the champs since if they are a Blaze it prioritizes champs. You just gotta get your combo right.

You know how large of an area a teamfight or skirmish is and how small the W is compared to that?

You E Q to stun someone then W on them. Usually whoever is in front line then spam ult when they seem to be close together

1v1? You better hope you hit him more than once.

E has a larger AoE range than W, THUS if you are trying to cause as much damage to the ENTIRE team you want to land E after the target is a blaze, thus spreading it even more, and since u have to have an a blaze target to land a stun the combo is W>Q>E>R or W>E>Q>R maximizing your AoE damage output. But the absolute max damage would be Q>E>W>R or Q>W>E>R but this combo does not stun and is VERY rarely used.

Now if you want single target damage E>Q>W>R is the better option, but in a team fight W>E>Q>R maximizes your damage.

If you dont use E first in the fight you aren't doing something right.

You EQ for the stun then W for the increased damage on them and aoe damage.

YOU ARE NOT LISTENING (READING ACTUALLY) FOR MAX AOE DAMAGE (MULTI TARGET DAMAGE) U LAND E AFTER W THUS HAVING 2 SPELLS OF AOE DAMAGE RATHER THAN 1. LAST I CHECKED 2 IS GREATER THAN 1. DO YOU KNOW WHAT E DOES ON BLAZED TARGETS. IF NOT THEN WHY ARE YOU DISCUSSING BRANDS ABILITIES GO READ THEM. IF SO THEN WHY ARE YOU NOT UNDERSTANDING WHAT I AM SAYING!

ALSO I SAID THAT E>Q>W>R WAS BETTER FOR SINGLE TARGET DAMAGE, BUT THAT W>E>Q>R IS BETTER FOR AOE DAMAGE. PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU REPLY TO ANYTHING!

AND YES THIS NEEDED TO BE IN ALL CAPS SO YOU CAN READ IT!

It does, if you land your basic abilities on some enemy champions, then your ult will prioritize the enemy champions only.

It is seriously detrimental for his ult to bounce off Brand himself, or else you just created a viable toxic top lane Brand. Why you think Ryze got gutted hard for?

Nope.

It specifically says if the target is ignited it will prioritize champs for next bounce.

Not ignited summoner 14 . Ablaze, as in Brand's passive. Enemies who were affected by Ablaze done by Brand's basic abilities will be prioritized by Brand's ult.

It's like, let's say you landed your W on a group of enemy units, which consists of:

-5 minions -3 champions

And when you cast your ult, it will only hit all 3 champions by bouncing on each of them one by one. Minions will be ignored by Brand's ult.

It's what I meant. And I think you knew what I meant.

Not everyone will always be in lane, and they wont always be near minions even when they are in lane.

In giant teamfights? In narrow jungle paths? There's always a chance to encounter these type of situations. Don't be a lazybum.
