Brand is an AP mage in the adc, and on patch 16.17 they grade out as a solid mid-tier pick — a 53.4% win rate, 0.7% pick rate, 8,246 ranked games sampled. On the power curve, Brand spikes hardest in the mid game around the two-to-three-item mark — that is the window to force fights and objectives.
How Brand wins: grouped 5-v-5 teamfights, where Brand tips the fight, and sieging objectives and turrets with sustained pressure. The kit grades 8/10 teamfighting, 8/10 siege. Play around where Brand is thin, engage and disengage (3/10, 3/10), and the enemy loses their angle.
The most-played core build is Blackfire Torch, Rylai's Crystal Scepter, Liandry's Torment, which holds a 58.6% win rate across 867 games this patch. The build above re-optimizes once you lock in the enemy composition.
