If you are getting a Shock or
If you are getting a Shock or Freeze Brandish, chances are you would like to inflict shock or freeze, which will only happen on the Charge attack. CTR will naturally hit Med at L10 so a Very High UV would bump that to Maximum.
On faster swords I tend make Damage Bonus a higher priority because that is going to give a more significant DPS boost. Heavier 2 swing swords (DA/GF) would see more DPS benefit from ASI. That said the best answer is all of the above, but for an Elemental Brandish I would prioritize CTR > DMG > ASI.
Combuster -> Best Damage Over Time (DOT)
Voltedge -> Intermediate between DOT and Crowd Control (shock interrupts attacks)
Glacius -> Best Crowd Control
Ice or Shock is personal preference slash what fills out your loadout better. I have a Freezing Atomizer to cover crowd control. I would have went with the Combuster for the better DOT, but I was gearing for FSC (fire stratum) plus the Voltedge was cheap and easy to get.
If you don't want to get all the Krogmo coins go with Iceburst line... Now with that being said I prefer ASI on my bransdish personally... I kinda go in swinging and then shield bounce. If you like to charge and then charge go with CTR.
I personally use the Shock line though. Added to the ASI, I smack them around and leave them shocked.
