Brand vs Pyke Matchup Summary

The Brand vs Pyke matchup is a moderate matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 125 recent matches analyzed, Brand wins with a 52.0% win rate compared to Pyke's 48.0%, giving Brand a 4.0 percentage point advantage. Brand dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Pyke players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential. The most significant statistical gap is in sustain, where Pyke leads by 277 HP/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Brand has a statistical edge, but the margin is close enough that respecting Pyke's strengths is important. Trade when cooldowns are favorable, track the enemy jungler, and build toward your strongest item spikes to convert the slight advantage into a decisive lead. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Sustain
414Brand
692Pyke
Pyke vastly out-sustains Brand, healing and mitigating 277 more damage per minute.

Brand dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 54.9% win rate — a 9.8 percentage point lead over Pyke. This lopsided early game means Brand can dictate the pace of the lane from level 1, controlling trades, wave state, and river priority.

Late game (25+ minutes) is equally balanced, with Brand at 50.0% win rate — only 0.0 points ahead of Pyke. Team fight execution and macro play determine the winner at this stage, not champion matchup advantage.

Brand holds the advantage at every stage of the game, making this a consistently favorable matchup from lane through late game team fights. Pyke players should look for outplays, team-dependent strategies, and picks rather than relying on scaling to win this matchup.
