Confragration Brand conjures a powerful blast at his target, dealing magic damage to them. If the target is ablaze, the conflagration spreads to nearby enemies.

Hey, this is my build for Brand, I'm honestly have trouble deciding what to use for him, because every game I go into with Brand it always ends after I get
or before..so I'm actually thinking of adding more survivability items, I used to get
because it gives me health and ability power, but I don't find it THAT much useful because the game still ends too quickly..SO as of now this is my build when the game last long enough, and its pretty solid, but I'm thinking of trying survivability items on him, and will give updates when I try it.

The reason I chose the skill sequence that I did is because I find that
Conflagration is the most important skill to have, because its an initiation skill and it sorta keeps enemies at bay. Also because once I use this skill..It instantly opens up all my other skills to be usable and is just ideal, and should be maxed as soon as possible.
Then there is the
Pillar of Flame that will do double damage if already on fire. I don't really know if I can say this is the best skill he has or not because they are all kind of even..but this should be the 2ed skill maxed, because we(I) really, only use the
Sear to stun and get off last hits..but its really used so they you WON'T miss your
Pillar of Flame so this should be maxed out next. Then you can bother yourself with
Sear

Farming on brand is easy and simple..you of course know you need the last hits on minions that's easy. But the combo I use to get minions down is his Q
W
E
I hit the minion in the middle of the crowd with the
Sear then, then
Conflagration to spread around, then
Pillar of Flame the last bit, but they are usually close to death so I just auto attack the **** out of 'em.
Late game the
Sear just one hits so you'll have to use
Pillar of Flame and
Conflagration, that should kill everything for ya.

In my rune setup, I try to get as much AP/pen as possible because I don't feel Brand has mana issues if done right. But if you find yourself needing mana, then get mana runes in replace of the Ability Power Runes
Well, it explains itself, Brand uses magic so I get magic penetration under the marks because it provides the better increase.
The ability power here is what help maximizes it while also maximizing the cool down time. In total its a 5.31 ability power boost. (If you don't want this then you can switch it with mana runes)
Gives the best cool down reduction at 5.85% stacked with
and blue buff, things should be easy to cast and kills will come much quicker.

The Recommended items for Brand aren't actually that bad I use 3 out of 6 of them I believe..
When I go mid or any other lane I get my boots and two health potions no matter what because I may slip up and get hit a few too many times..but its better to get the magic penetration from
1st over anything else.
My second item is usually the
1st but sometimes go for the
if the enemy team is dps types.
-Core items-
These items are the core items because the boots already add a good amount of dmg to you because of the penetration. The
Rylai's Crystal Scepter is also good for you because it gives you health, ability power AND slow, just in case you cast your skill too late and they get away. They're going to be slowed so you can just lead you
Pillar of Flame and get the kill, its happens to me so many times! I swear its laughable.
-Optional items-
This is good because it gives you magic resist against those magic users and lowers their magic resist and any other hero for that matter (good vs a brand and any burst squishy).
is also good after getting death cap because it will give you 70 ability power along with the spell vamp, which is good because you'll be using you skills PRETTY often, there's never a time when you should be auto attacking (unless of course they are going to die in a hit or so).
I haven't used this item but I believe it would be a good use to Brand if you good at surviving, because with this, you wouldn't exactly need the
Rylai's Crystal Scepter..and you can't build more tanky, to boost the survivability.

This is an easy concept, it just in the same sequence as to how you get your skills.
Conflagration should be used 1st since its an auto target. Then LEAD YOUR
Sear, this is important because it stuns your target, this way you don't miss your
Pillar of Flame, and you can auto attack a few times, and recast your
Conflagration. Usually after getting death cap this is a one hit combo to squishies. BUT IF YOU THINK YOUR"RE GOING TO DIE USE
Pyroclasm!
Getting kills requires you to use this combo MULTIPLE TIMES!
Also if you
Sear doesn't hit to stun, then fall back because your skill combo will be useless afterwords
If your doing a 1v1, and you notice and enemy coming, either A: Instant ulti when the 2ed person is in the area..so it can bounce back between them..
B: run to a bush and wait for one to come near and stun them..(the one with the highest hp or dps or closest person to bush) and
Exhaust the other then ulti.
A; is the easier option, while it will get you a kill, along with your own life(maybe), while B; is more riskier and will either get you a double kill or no kills.
Running away, if you think you will easily get away from someone then don't bother casting skills, but if you don't think you'll get away then just use E
Conflagration, Q
Sear

Team work with Brand consist of stuns..but you can only stun once. I usually just
Conflagration to whoever is in front of a team fight trying to initiate..then they rotation to the back to avoid stun..Just let it happen, cause then the squishes will be forced to the front then that's when your team should dive in..and your
Conflagration should be off its cool down, so E
Conflagration Q
Sear W
Pillar of Flame R
Pyroclasm! Remember this should all be on one target to max effect, usually you'll get at least two kills with this and the rest of the team half way down (the two kills being the main target and any target with less then 40% health).
Whenever someone on your team is away from and enemy you should never use Piller of Flame, ALWAYS STUN, you will save your teams life and might even get a kill/assist.
