About Champion and Skills

The Champion

Brand is an AP Carry champion, and usually he goes top or middle lane, but I choose bottom sometimes and he's nice too :). His skills are ranged with a difficult aim, so, you can fight alone, but in team you will be more sure at least three of four of your skills will hit e_e'. He has a nice damage-over-time too *-*.

Skills

Blaze (Passive) - This passive skill allows you to apply the Blaze state on each enemy hitted by your skills, assuring additional effects to them. And also, it has a funny effect: deals 8% of target's maximum health by 4 seconds. Brand's abilities gain additional effects if Blaze is activated on the target.

• Blaze grants you to stun your enemy when Sear is casted.
• Try to activate Blaze's effect on as many people as you can, so you can enjoy better your skills' secondary effects.
• Pillar of Flame takes out more health (25% more) off a Blazed target(s).
• Blaze also spreads Conflagration to nearby enemies as long as the targets are with the said state.
• Blaze's effect lasts 4 seconds, be sure you'll hit your skills within this time.

Sear (Q) -

General Situations

Brand

Blaze

You should use Conflagration first because it's the unique skill that has target before you unlock your ultimate Pyroclasm. Even with the additional effect with Blaze passive, it's not much useful on a fight against champions, since Pillar of Flame - if hitted right - already let the target(s) on fire and do more damage than Conflagration would do.

Sear requires a good aim and sense of where-my-enemy-will-be-considering-the-time-my-searing-ball-will-spend-to-reach-him, but if you hit it right, your combo will become more powerful, since the target will get stunned and you will be sure your Pillar of Flame will hit him with its 25% damage bonus from Blaze's additional effect on this skill.

>>

In the end, your most damage dealer skill is Pillar of Flame, since it deals 25% more damage when Blaze is activated on target. If you did the entire combo, this skill will make your enemy sunshine. Literally. line

After using this combo, use Pyroclasm on your enemy to take away more health from him, praying to your Blaze's effect still be on targets arround to make your pyro-ball jump this way on the targets: 1-> main target ->2->minion or second champion ->3-> another champion arround (since when the target is Blaze-ing, the next target will be a champion) - luckly the main one ->4->minion or the another champion ->5->miraculously the main again, probably finishing he off.

• I recommend you to hit your Pillar of Flame right on near enemy(ies) of your target, because if he(them) is(are) surrounded by non-blazed minions or champions, your ult skill Pyroclasm may not hurt him(t...well, you get it) more than one or two times.
• If you feel your enemy will try to flee, cast your Ignite spell.
• If even after all you know your target won't die and will flee before you can reach him, use my Items Chapter's Fleeing Enemy Session to learn how to try to get him closer.

Minions crowd

When you reach them, use Pillar of Flame on the crowd center to turn the minions into street fires walking by the ground.

After turning them into little flaming balls, use Conflagration to steal the tower's and allies minions' kills, and also spread your fire by non-hitted lucky minions arround.

• Try to hit as many minions as you can with the "big"circle the Pillar of Flame provides you e_e, this way Conflagration will hit so much more minions - and probably kill them, assuring to you some gold xD - than it would with a bad aim on Pillar of Flame.
