While statistically Lux is slightly stronger than Brand as support, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage in this matchup. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.
The magic damage that Lux deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Brand deals primarily magic damage (89.68%), additional magic resistance may be required.
Consider the excellent vision control demonstrated by Brand, ranking 25th (versus 29th for Lux) in ward placement among supports. This means the opponent provides better map vision for their team. Meanwhile, their lower KDA (1.9 versus 2.4) suggests they are less effective in team fights.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Lux player to maintain constant pressure on Brand, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
