X1313e that wasn't the point. Of course they are still burning. The explosion refreshes the burn timer. But because of the "Brand cannot stack Blaze more than once on enemies who have exploded in the past 4 seconds" part of his passive, the explosion will cause the burn after the explosion to be only the 1-stack burn.

I know it's confusing, so here a more indepth explanation. Every spell of brand causes the enemy to burn for 4% max health over 4 seconds. That means 1% may health per 1 second. And this effect stacks up to three times (8% max health at 2 stacks, 12% at three stacks). However, at 3 stacks the target will explode after 2 seconds and after the explosion the targets burn timer will be reset and the burn effect will be locked at the 1 stack burn (4% over 4 seconds) becuase of the last sentence that I quoted. And because the explosion will trigger after 2 seconds, the 3-stack burn will only apply for half of it's actual duration. Instead of 12% max health over 4 seconds you actually only deal 6% over 2 seconds and then reset to the 4% over 4 seconds.
