How to Play with Ziggs as Brand in LoL

The Brand Ziggs synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of his gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Ziggs, compared to his overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how his gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Brand sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Ziggs. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Ziggs helps Brand perform poorer in ranked League rounds. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Brand is an ally to Ziggs, he observes a small decrease in his full damage dealt. This difference may demonstrate that Ziggs does not support by providing protection for him to dish out more damage or that his support also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Brand is played alongside Ziggs on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays without Ziggs. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Ziggs.

Additionally, when Brand plays with Ziggs on the same team, he often receives a little more damage than when he fights alone. Taking more damage may mean that Ziggs does a poor job of covering Brand in team fights.

Is Brand better when played alongside Ziggs?

There is no perfect synergy for Brand that will always be his top teammate. Yet, Ziggs is a very bad ally for Brand. By playing on the same side as Brand, he drops their win rate by -4.0% to 47.4%. This clearly indicates that there is a very bad synergy between Brand and Ziggs that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Ziggs has a lower difficulty than Brand. That means Brand players don't need to be careful when arranging Ziggs allies to play with, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to play well with you.

Fighting on the same side, Brand players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magical damage. Together, these two can blast through enemies with magic damage.

Although, by grouping Brand and Ziggs together, you probably will not be giving your other teammates a great deal of attack damage. Plan to include other champions on your team that nullifies this relative hole in their kit.

Regardless of the skill of your Ziggs ally, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well anyway.
