No?

Brand wasn't picked before preseason rolled around, and now everyone is picking him because of how we is fitting into the metagame, wait for the meta to settle and he'll go back to being rarely picked and sub-par compared to champs like Viktor.

If he is still seeing strong performance after that, the thing to target would be his passives interaction with Liandries/Rylais, his passives actual damage, or a nerf to his W's base damage, compensating it by giving it increased % damage if they're burned. This would worsen his poke but increase his optimal combo when engaging with E/Q first.
