Why Arcane Comet
Brand is a champion that can quite regularly land Comet once you have Rylai's. The DoT from his passive also helps dramatically reduce the cooldown of Comet while they are burning.
Why Manaflow Band
As a high damage support, your job is to provide **lane pressure with frequent harass** from ability spam. Manaflow provides you the mana sustain to keep the pressure up. Pay attention to the cooldown and try to **utilize the mana refund on [W]**, your highest costing ability.
Why Absolute Focus
Brand's ability to take over the laning phase with his immense damage is unrivaled. A few early [W]s for poke with Absolute Focus can win you the lane.
Why Scorch
Scorch is a rune that really plays up on heavy lane aggresison and dies off over the course of the game. If you expect to game to go to late you can forgo that early damage for scaling with Gathering Storm instead.
WhyMagical Footwear
Magical Footwear allows you to take advantage of your aggressive laning phase damage by snowballing any kills/assists you pick up into a father damage itemization.
WhyCosmic Insight
Cosmic Insight's well-rounded utility provides you more damage in the form of CDR and kill potential with Summoner CDR.
