How to play against Sett

Lane and teamfight rules that hold regardless of your pick.

In lane and in teamfights

  1. Take short trades and leave before his grit bar fills enough to threaten W.
  2. Dash or sidestep out of W center when he casts it without locking you down first.
  3. Avoid standing your frontline directly in front of carries, because R can throw them into your backline.
  4. Kite him through open space instead of fighting in tight corridors where E can pull multiple targets.
  5. Spread behind your frontline so his R entry cannot start an area burst on your carries.

Where Sett is weak

Exploit these in draft and in lane.

  • Sett has to walk into range, so kiting and disengage can deny both his punches and crowd control.
  • Sett's burst is centered on stored damage, making sidesteps or delayed damage waste his biggest payoff.
