This is kinda an experimental idea i've been toying with for building Brand, it works pretty well in games but I'd like to see what you guys think. (Since Brand hasn't been released on the site yet.)

Here's the build:
1) Sapphire Crystal ( Doran's Ring if you're not confident
2) Boots
3) Tear of the Goddess
4) Sorcerers Boots
5) Glacial Shroud
6) Rod of Ages
7) Archangel's Staff
8) Rabadon's Deathcap
9) Rylai's Crystal Scepter
10) Frozen Heart or replace with another item.

Just tested this out, and it works great, however I personally went for the tear before the boots. :)

that's a very late game build you have no extra ap up until RoA? if u want armour for a nuke/mage why not just get hourglass? his cd's are pretty low anyway and as brand you will have blue buff most the time.

This seems pretty viable, especially considering Brand's early game damage is fantastic (from what i've seen). However, I don't play Brand, so it's only speculation.

Go for an early Catalyst instead of ROA. If you have trouble with mana you should get flat MP5 seals.
Tear is just not that good as a first item on most champions.
Google has a job title called "Head of Black Community Engagement"..
I don't know whether to cry or laugh.. or both.

didn't like this build.

trying to build in this order kept me ineffective, need ability much sooner like the recommended lol brand build.

i did enjoy the tons of mana and cooldown, but you end up having to chase and recast a lot more. i'm use to casting one entire set of spells and getting the kill.

beginner's guide:

i find spell vamp keeps me in the lane longer as its much faster and consistent healing then just depending on pots. eg. combo spell vamp with early ability power allows you to target the 3 range minions and kill them instantly with pillar + conflagration = free heal + cash money.

key items to start using recommended lol build:
Amplifying Tome + Healing Potion
Hextex Revolver (spell vamp)
Sorcerer Shoes
Rylai's Crystal Sceptre (ability + slowdown)
Rabadon's Deathcap (massive ability power)

choices:
Tear of Goddess => Archangel Staff (lots of mana)
Void Staff (magic pentetration + ability power)
Glacial Shroud => Frozen Heart (mana + cooldown)

Well, I always get Archangel's Staff when I play as a mage (excluding Vladimir). It solves the mana problem.

Rabadon's Deathcap and sorc boots are needed.

About Frozen Heart: It's a great item since you got Archangel's Staff. But if you didn't, there are another items like Hourglass the gives def and AP.

Rod of Ages is usually better.
