Building Brand

[quote=tbuga05]So, I have been playing Brand very often lately. I know Brand isn't a very common champion this season, but I really like building ap with him and going mid. I find myself low on mana early game. So lately I have been replacing the assumed start of Dorans Ring and 2 Health Pots by starting with Spellthief's edge and 3 Health Pots. I later upgrade this to Frost Queens Claim but the rest of the build is very conventional for Brand. However, many users have heavily critisized this chang in my starting build. I don't know why. How do you feel about this?[/quote]

[quote=GrandmasterD]I really don't see any point in starting Spellthief in mid-lane.[/quote]

[quote=LevasK]I think atm [[Doran's Ring]] is the strongest starting item for AP Mid laners. [[Spellthief's Edge]] is a support item for a reason. It gives very little AP and no Health which means you are a lot weaker in lane and upgrading it into [[Frost Queen's Claim]] is just not worth it. If you are having trouble with mana you can try getting 2-3 [[Doran's Ring]] or build [[Chalice of Harmony]] as your 1st item. Or just be more careful with your mana.[/quote]

[quote=tbuga05]Okay. Makes sense. Thanks![/quote]
