Vi vs Brand Matchup Summary

The Vi vs Brand matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 9 recent matches analyzed, Brand wins with a 55.6% win rate compared to Vi's 44.4%, giving Brand a 11.1 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Brand controls the early laning stage, but Vi outscales as the game goes longer. The matchup shifts dramatically depending on game length — Brand needs to press advantages before Vi reaches their power spikes, while Vi should focus on safe farming and hitting key item breakpoints. The most significant statistical gap is in sustain, where Vi leads by 667 HP/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Brand has a strong advantage in this matchup. Vi players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Brand overextending. Avoid prolonged trades and wait for team fights where positioning and coordination matter more. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Damage
679Vi
964Brand

Economy
13,288Vi
13,191Brand
Vi and Brand generate nearly equal gold per game, with just a 98 gold difference. Neither champion has a clear economic advantage, so gold leads will depend on individual play quality, kill participation, and objective contributions.
Utility
0.9Vi
1.5Brand
Brand provides 0.6 seconds more crowd control per minute than Vi, offering better gank setup potential and slightly more team fight utility. This CC advantage helps Brand coordinate with their jungler and control the pace of skirmishes.
Sustain
1,376Vi
710Brand
Vi vastly out-sustains Brand, healing and mitigating 667 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Vi can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Brand is forced to recall.

Brand dominates the early game (first 15 minutes) with a commanding 66.7% win rate — a 33.3 percentage point lead over Vi. 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 Vi at 50.0% win rate — only 0.0 points ahead of Brand. Team fight execution and macro play determine the winner at this stage, not champion matchup advantage.

The power dynamics shift as the game progresses — Brand has the edge early, but Vi gradually takes over. However, the margins are slim enough that either champion can win at any stage with the right plays. Focus on taking advantages when you have them rather than waiting for a specific game phase.
