Weekly reminder from a Brand player that being an old school mage means cooldowns are actually significant and having a large chunk of your power basically made useless by what is probably the best AP item in the game is frustrating.
Cloud2733 votesAs much as I love Brand, I don't agree with this. Zhonyas is supposed to make you untargetable (abilities and basic attacks can't hit you). If the ability doesn't hit the person with Zhonyas, it's not going to bounce. I know that sucks for Brand, but that's just the way it is.

They plan to make it bounce off of untargetable units but deal no damage, similar to Fiora's Blade Waltz.

Yuumi or Lose3 votesFor those saying that it shouldn't bounce off because of the whole "untargetable" business, a while back Fiora's ult did the same until they buffed her and made her ult so that it continues ulting even if the target used Zhonyas. Why shouldn't Brand be able to do the same?
Llanite1 votesBecause the thing lose 40% dmg on the same target?
Brand R could function the same as well, but doubt if you even want that.
Eyrgos2 votesIt makes no sense for what's essentially a homing missile type of Ult to lock-on to something that's untargetable.
Burst em down into a dangerous situation without it so they're forced to pop that Zhonya's & then use your Ult while it's on CD.
SouL1ess2 votesSo...save your ult in a teamfight until Zhonyas is used?
El Condor Pasa1 votesSo hourglass stasis is made targetable so that Brand's ult can bounce off it? Hourglass does not need a buff.
Kitten of Evil1 votesHave it bounce off himself, then it'd be not as awful 1v1.

Have it bounce off himself, then it'd be not as awful 1v1.
Or make it so the first hit deals more damage and every hit after does a bit less. That way it's not a complete waste to use it when you're 1v1ing with no minions around, but also isn't an auto 1v1 win like it would be if it could bounce off Brand.
Yfrappefort1 votesI am not sure, but I think Meddler commented that he would like 
ult to bounce off "untargetable" units. Of course, it would still do no damage to the said target, but at least it won't completely nullify his ult and allow it to bounce some more.
Yasu0 is dog1 votesMy work-around for this was to W the target with hourglass and then E to spread and then ult his buddy or whoever was close to him, but yeah it should continue bouncing regardless
The Bearded Bard1 votesAgreed. When you zhonyas in the middle of Darius's ult, Cait's ult, Garen's ult, it resets the cooldown. If you target someone with Brand's ult and they zhonyas before it hits them, the ult goes on cooldown and disappears completely.
Drunk Rummate1 votesimo just reset the cooldown like caitlyn's ult
problem solved, yeah?
