How to win the jungle race as Bel'Veth against Brand · Matchup data reviewed on patch 26.15
Read from Bel'Veth's seat: the race windows this plan plays for against Brand.
| Stage | Read | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 Clear | Bel'Veth Favoured | Void Surge dashes make your trades untouchable against slower kits. The Sear into Conflagration point-click burst wins the level-1 stat check, so this is an edge and not a blowout — take the level-1 crossing only with the HP and cooldown lead. |
| Level 2 Skirmish | Bel'Veth Favoured | Above and Below's knock-up sets up a free trade window on cooldown, but ablaze combo poke chunks half a health bar through a wall. You still win the straight exchange on the second camp; keep it short, keep it decisive, and keep the scuttle line yours. |
| Level 3 Route | Bel'Veth Dominant | All four dash directions plus the W knock-up make the extended duel yours. Later in the game this bites, because the E-Q ablaze stun rotation removes half your HP in a single combo. But as the first scuttle timer lands none of it is online, so take the level-3 river fight and tax every camp Brand concedes. |
| Levels 4-5 Macro | Bel'Veth Dominant — Keep Fighting | Nothing about 4-5 helps Brand here: he converts 4-5 into cross-map 2v2s where a Conflagration bounce off a laner does most of the damage, while you can take any duel you can reach. Invade on the clear-timer, not on a whim. |
| Level 6 Breakpoint | Endless Banquet Domination | True form turns every objective fight into a feeding frenzy — force them on spawn. Pyroclasm bounces melt any fight you take near teammates, but in a straight post-6 duel that is not enough: you out-spike Brand at this breakpoint, so play the aggressor while it lasts. |
| First Item Spike | Kraken Slayer Spike | Completing your primary damage core triggers an un-matchable physical damage acceleration loop that completely melts epic monsters and champions alike. Your clear is on autopilot, letting you instantly secure lane priority grids before rotating into neutral pits. Brand's first item makes the Sear-into-Conflagration rotation a full health bar on a squishy, with no auto-attacks needed. |
| 2+ Items Scaling | Bel'Veth Favoured — Wins Late | The late game is yours. Remember what Brand still is at full build — he deletes a clumped fight with a Pyroclasm bounce and needs no auto-attacks to do it — and take the fights that do not let it matter. |
Start your routing on the Raptors node to maximize your early multi-hit Q dash resets for an ultra-fast full clear toward the opposite side scuttle. Brand clears with Pillar of Flame and Conflagration and is healthy at three, but the clear costs him most of his mana.
