A level-by-level game plan for Brand vs Shen.
Levels 1-2
Your job is to win the 2v2 without dying, not necessarily to get kills yourself.
- Brand should poke with your range advantage and avoid trading autos in melee range.
- Shen can soak your poke easily — don't waste resources trying to out-trade durability.
- OP.GG data flags Shen as a strong counter to Brand in this role — expect them to look for early trades, so play a touch safer than usual.
Levels 3-5
Trade when your ADC has priority, and hold cooldowns to punish overextensions.
- Farm from range and punish any hard engage with your full combo before they close the gap.
- Watch for CC chains that set up their jungler or teammates — respect their engage range.
Level 6
Jungler ganks and bot lane all-ins both spike here — play safer without vision.
- Your ultimate usually adds burst or CC that turns pokes into kills — look for the window.
- Their ultimate usually enables a hard engage — keep an escape option up once it's available.
Levels 7-11
Roaming and vision control around dragon become your biggest source of impact.
- Wave clear lets you control the lane state; push to roam or freeze to bait a dive.
- They'll front line for their team — focus their carries instead of the tank.
Levels 12-15
Your item spike decides whether you peel, engage, or poke in fights.
- Your core item spikes here — you should threaten kills from well outside melee range.
- They become very hard to kill directly — punish their team instead of all-inning them.
Level 16+
You decide when fights start — vision and positioning matter more than stats.
- You're a primary damage source from range — play from the back and burst priority targets.
- Their engage decides the fight — respect flanks and don't clump up for an easy multi-CC.
