Hi,

I love Brand, and while I see your point with the items/summoners, let me explain you my opinion to share thoughs and, hopefully, to improve your guide:

1) Heal: I have used both Ignite and Heal, and I finally decided to go Ignite, just to get an early kill to own the lane. At low lvl you lack of dmg to kill an enemy, you have to rely in harrassing a bit, and when enemy is at 50% then you can smack him with your combo, otherwise you will not get nothing, except suckin air earlier without mana regen :)

So, Ignite will help you further to get an edge in your early game, and then, will make you harder and will let you dominate in later game, that is your main goal as an AP. Heal would help you in a tricky situation, which indeed, you should try to avoid it since you are not a tank, you are a hit&run charact.

2) Items: I usually go this build, but I add 1-2-3 Dorans rings/Catalyst Protector before purchasing rylais, otherwise, I would be out of mana very fast. Also, having mana improves your farming speed, and that is my main priority in low lvls.
I dont like Archangel's staff, but if you want to grabb it, go for it much earlier to get the most benefict of it, so I would go for the tear/catalyst/rings earlier than the rylais. The rest is almost the same.

3) If you look at the description of your skills, spear > conflagration in all aspects, and I mean ALL OF THEM: mana cost, cooldown, damage and range. It is better in all aspects, the only downside: being a skillshot. I think you should go as third priority for spear instad for conflagration.

Cheers, good write up, keep it on the good work.

PS: sorry if my english is not good enough, Im not english.

I'm exactly on-page with A Chubby Baby,

Next time make sure your guide is at least 90% of what you expect it to be as a finished, published product.

Make sure you take the time to make everything clear and easy to understand.

mate, you should turn on require comment to vote first. this way you know who downvotes your guide. i'd advise you to archive this, code it, and then unarchive it. dont release guides that dont exactly look finished.

keep up the good work!

Well, I wrote a part about this item and my thoughts about it. In my view you only need this for life-using champs like morde and vladimir. But I will keep you idea in mind.

Thank you very much for your comment. I know its only a first version of my build. I will work on it the next days. The idea with the tear of godess is good, but im sure that the rylai is more important. maybe i will change my ideas.

This guide is going in a good direction, but you really need to add some color! to make it a bit more interesting.

And for the build itself, I think it would make a bit more sense to pick up Tear of the Goddess much earlier in the build so its passive can continue to give you mana until you build it into Archangles Staff.
