Janna vs Brand

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Hold brush control to deny (W) poke angles and protect your ADC from burn stacks.
Prioritize shielding and positioning to enable your scaling ADC against Brand's poke and stun setup.
Use (Q) and (R) to disrupt Brand's engage attempts and create safe disengage windows for your ADC.

Trading pattern

Shield your ADC's key trades and hold (Q) to punish Brand's predictable engage or stun attempts.
Use (W) slow to peel when Brand commits to poke or stun, enabling your ADC to reposition safely.
Avoid using (Q) randomly; save it to interrupt Brand's engage or to protect your ADC from burst combos.

Danger windows

Respect Brand's empowered (Q) stun after his (W) or (E) applies Blaze; avoid clustered positioning.
Beware of Brand's level 6 (R) bounce damage in grouped fights; keep your ADC spread and ready to disengage.
Watch for Brand's poke cooldowns; when (W) and (Q) are up, your ADC is vulnerable to burst and stun.

Early game

Track level 2 to secure your shield and knockup combo before Brand can land empowered (Q).
Keep wave stable near your tower to reduce ADC poke vulnerability and limit Brand's burn application.
Deny Brand brush access to prevent him from setting up (W) poke and (Q) stun angles.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks your shield and knockup, allowing you to contest Brand's poke and protect ADC trades.
Level 3 grants full peel kit; use it to control brush and force Brand to miss his stun setup.
Level 6 (R) provides a fight reset and disengage tool; use it to negate Brand's all-in damage and protect your ADC.

Win conditions

Convert brush control and (Q) knockup into denying Brand's engage and enabling ADC follow-up.
Use (E) shields and (R) disengage to protect your scaling ADC through poke and all-ins.
Set river vision and coordinate roams after wave crashes to secure dragon and deny Brand's mid pressure.
