Sett's abilities

Passive, spells and ultimate

Pit Grit (P)

Sett's basic attacks alternate between left and right punch. Right punch is slightly stronger and faster. Sett also hates losing, gaining additional health regeneration based off of his missing health.

Playing as Ryze

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Flux, then Overload

    Cast Spell Flux (E) on your target or a nearby minion, then Overload (Q): the Flux spreads to nearby enemies, and the bolt bounces from one to the next.

  2. Root a target with Flux

    Cast Rune Prison (W) on a target marked by Spell Flux (E): they're rooted instead of slowed.

  3. Alternate your spells

    Alternate your spells in teamfights: Rune Prison (W) and Spell Flux (E) reset the cooldown of Overload (Q).

  4. Open a portal for your team

    Cast Realm Warp (R) to rotate to an objective or a flank: after a few seconds, all allies near you are teleported.

Playing against Sett

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Leave the center of his punch

    Get out of the center of Haymaker (W): it deals true damage there, and the sides only deal physical damage.

  2. Keep your distance after Knuckle Down

    Keep your distance once Knuckle Down (Q) is used: he has no dash, and it's this spell that speeds him toward you.

  3. No big trade you can't finish

    Don't take a big trade unless you can finish it: Haymaker (W) stores part of the damage he takes as Grit, for a stronger shield and punch.

  4. Don't group behind your tank

    Don't stay grouped behind your tank: The Show Stopper (R) can slam them onto you, and the damage depends on their bonus health.
