Overall, Rek'Sai sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Brand. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN.

This change could indicate that Brand provides protection for him to deal more damage or that his support also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Rek'Sai is played alongside Brand on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays without Brand. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Brand.
Moreover, when Rek'Sai plays with Brand on the same team, he typically receives a little more damage than when he fights alone. Taking more damage may mean that Brand does a poor job of protecting Rek'Sai during team fights.

Brand has a greater difficulty than Rek'Sai. That means Rek'Sai players should be careful when lining up Brand teammates to fight alongside, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to do well with you.
Fighting alongside, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magical damage. Combined, these champs can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.
In contrast, by bringing Rek'Sai and Brand together, you may not be giving your team enough tankyness. We recommend you have other champions on your team that offsets this hole in their potential.
Regardless of the skill of your Brand teammate, you should focus on increasing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well anyway.
