Greetings my summoner name is Tynkywinky. This is my very first build on mobafire. Since I bought quite some time ago he has become my main champion, and I just love that he is capable of nuking/harassing hard early on.

Pros

Great farmer
Great nuker
Great at harassing

Cons

Hard to aim with
Squishy - That's why I get 3x dorans in the start.

Greater Mark of Magic Penetration
Magic penetration to get more damage.
Greater Glyph of Scaling Cooldown Reduction
I get a small amount of cooldown reduction because it can mean a lot in teamfights.
Greater Seal of Scaling Mana Regeneration
Extra mana so skills will be a bit more spamable.
Greater Quintessence of Ability Power
15 AP for first blood

Not much to say, just standard masteries for an AP carry. 9/0/21

I start with because it gives Brand a nice start with 100 HP, 15 AP and some mana regen.

You can also start with and 3x , but I prefer because I want that first blood.

I'd like to buy 3x because it gives Brand very nice survivability and still good AP and mana regen.
I get because I feel that brand sometimes doesn't nuke hard enough.
After that I can rush straight to because of the 3 which gives quite a good amount of HP.
I get as the last item to stay alive as long as possible and it saves soulstealer in case of a mistake.

I like to poke with and early game and try to stun them with
I like to use my stun combo on them and then and an auto attack.
When in teamfight use , , and
Or
, and then save for the ones who try to run.

and for first blood.

Just last hit with normal attack, when a lot of minions stack you can use and to remove the wave.

Mejai's soulstealer 15%
Elixir of brillance 10%
Runes 8% at level 18
Masteries 9%
= 42
40 is cap so I do only have 2% over - not much waste.

Your role as Brand is to do as much damage as possible without taking massive damage.
NEVER INITIATE by urself, let someone else initiate. When you are focused you are easily taken down.
Just stand back and let your tank take damage while you nuke them down.

I recommend you to try Brand because he's just too good early game and hard to counter mid-late game if farmed right.

2 sec stun at lvl 3? yes please!

Pictures will be uploaded soon.
Peace out
Have fun!
