Guide to Countering Brand as Ashe

Tips for Playing as Ashe against Brand

Hawkshot reveals units in brush. If a team fight is occuring in the jungle it can give you a significant advantage.

Volley arrows are blocked by the first enemy they hit, so keep your distance to avoid having them all absorbed by enemy frontliners.

Try to fire Enchanted Crystal Arrow in the same direction enemies are moving, so it is more likely to hit.

Advice to Win Against Brand

Brand's passive allows him to excel against teams that cluster together. Be sure to split up against him.

Brand must land an ability before his combo is able to get started. Dodging his Sear or Pillar of Flame will disrupt his rhythm.

Try to move away from allies when you see Pyroclasm being cast. The initial missile speed is slow, which should give your team time to react.
