Introduction
I made this guide to show you my way of playing Brand... I like him cause he is one of the best mid chars, AP carries and has lots of magical damage output in 1v2 fights (i score many double kills with him, when enemy jungler tries to gank me ;) ) and thats the reason why he is banned in many ranked games ;/
Hope you like it and be so succesfully like me with Brand ;D
Pros:
- good AP carry
- high damage burst
- can win 1v2 easily, if you know how to play him
- good passive, so your enemy will not be full life often
- good farmer
- hard to kill, cause of your stun
Cons:
- often focussed in team fights
- in 1v1s, very dependent on his Q hitting the enemy
- often banned in ranked games
Sorry, but i really do not know more Cons ^^

Good passive to harrass your enemies. If you hit with any spell, he will burn, and loose a nice amount of health. Your enemy should hardly be full-life. In addition you get a nice extra with any of your other spells.

A very important skill for 1v1 or to run away if you are chased. The only bad thing: you need to hit your enemy with another spell before you can stun him.

Your highest damage output. Try to hit your enemies as often as possible with it.
Also good for farming. Together with your E it will clear the minion wizards when you are lvl 5 (or even before, if you get kills in lane).

Good AOE spell, if the first target burns already. In 1v1 i use it to set the enemy on fire, so that I can stun him and get a secure hit with my W.
Some Brand-Players try the combo W-Q-E, but I think, this is useless because in my way (E-Q-W) you have 25% more damage with the W, what is great. :)

One of the best Ultis for an AP carry ingame.
In the lower levels you can easily score a double kill with it. Enemy jungler tries to gank, you run away, and the enemy jungler and mid char chase you. Then you turn around, make your combo on one of them, cast your ult if they stand near together and no enemy minions are in range, so you hit the first target three times, and the other one two times. One of him will be dead now, and the other one will die if you attack him again with your combo, auto-hit or ignite him.
I max
Pillar of Flame first, this Spell does most Damage, and 25% more if you attack your enemy with another spell before you cast it. After W i max
Conflagration, to get lower Cooldown on it, and to do more AOE.
You can do E instead of W on lvl 5 if you want, you have to see how often you hit your enemy with your W.
Sear I max last, cause you just need to stun your enemies.
In lane phase cast your
Pillar of Flame on the small minion wards, and, if the enemy champion is near, your
Conflagration to burn him so that he loses 8% of his max life.

In lane phase cast your


I go 21/0/9, because you need the Bonus AP from Offensive Tree in th early game, and some masterie points are spent there good for end game, e.g.
Havoc
and
Arcane Knowledge
.
You need the extra mana to stay longer in lane, harrass your enemy and spam your W to farm and try to geht enemy life lower and lower.

Skills I chose:


Optional:







Needless Skills:




Clearvoyance - Please do not even think about taking this spell with you. It is for the support!
Start Item:
I buy



Core:



You have a bit survivability, will not run out of mana, have enough AP to burst your enemy easily, and the additional magic pen is great against squishies.
If you like you could take Ionian Boots, but I do not prefer them.
Rest Build:



Optional:


Early game:
Concentrate on farming; make your W and E on the 3 smaller minions, from lvl 5 you will kill them. Try to hit your enemy with your W whenever it works, and to set him on fire if he is near a burning minion (cast W on it).
Mid game:
Try to gank as often as possible, every time the enemy mid char goes back and you do not have to do so, and other enemies are pushing hard, just go top or bot. With your ulti, you can easily kill two champions, when they try to escape.
Late game:
Try to stay behind your allies, try not to be focussed out. Stun the AD carry and burst him down.
Do your ulti whenever you see some enemies standing near together without enemy minions there. It will be a nice damage output, which will help to win the team fight.
