Anivia vs Brand

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 9, 2026

Overview

Use (Q) and (W) to zone Brand and deny his ADC easy access to the wave.
Control brush to limit Brand's poke angles and reduce his empowered (Q) stun threat.
Prioritize protecting your ADC from Brand's poke and setting up follow-up after your (Q) stun.

Trading pattern

Engage with (Q) when (Q) and (W) are on cooldown to avoid his poke burst.
Hold (W) terrain to block Brand's approach and force him into your (Q) stun.
Sync your engage with your ADC's follow-up to punish Brand's immobility after his poke.

Danger windows

Respect Brand's empowered (Q) stun after he applies Blaze with (W) or (E), especially near brush.
Avoid clustering with your ADC to reduce damage from Brand's level 6 (R) bounce.
Watch for Brand's poke cooldowns; he is most dangerous when (W) and empowered (Q) are ready.

Early game

Win the level 2 race by coordinating (Q) stun with your ADC's engage or poke.
Deny Brand brush control early to reduce his poke and stun setup opportunities.
Crash waves safely to create roam windows while ensuring your ADC remains protected.

Power spikes

After level 2, your (Q)+(E) combo becomes a strong pick tool against Brand's poke.
Post level 6, use (R) to zone and force Brand's ADC out of position before engaging.
First mana/AP item boosts your waveclear and poke, increasing lane control and pick threat.

Win conditions

Convert wave control into denying Brand's ADC positioning and poke angles.
Use brush denial and vision control to limit Brand's engage and stun setups.
Roam after safely crashing waves to pressure mid and secure dragon vision for your team.
