How to beat Brand as Renata Glasc: the early game

Levels 1-2 are yours: Brand ramps up slowly, his Q only stuns a target already burning, and your E shield plus proactive Handshake trades let you win the auto-war before his combo comes online. Punish him hard now because this is the only phase he's behind. His rotation out-damages anything you can shield through, so hold position and let your carry farm. Tether him only once his stun is already spent, mark him with an auto for the free chip in between, and keep the shield for the burst rather than the first tick.
