Playing as Sett
Tips to maximize your impact
- Start trades with Knuckle Down
Start your trades with Knuckle Down (Q): you rush toward your target, and your next two autos deal bonus damage based on their max health.
- Haymaker after taking damage
Cast Haymaker (W) right after taking damage: the stored Grit gives you a shield and extra damage, dealt as true damage in the center of the punch.
- Don't back too early
Don't back too early at low health: Pit Grit (passive) increases your health regen based on your missing health.
- Stand between two enemies
Stand between two enemies before Facebreaker (E): grabbed from both sides, they're stunned, otherwise only slowed.
- Slam their tank onto their carries
Grab their tank with The Show Stopper (R) and slam them onto their carries: the damage around the impact depends on the bonus health of the target you grab.
Playing against Gragas
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Stay behind your minions
Stay behind your minions: Body Slam (E) stops on the first enemy it meets, minions included.
- Get out of the barrel zone fast
Get out of the Barrel Roll (Q) area right away: the longer the barrel sits on the ground, the more its explosion hurts and slows.
- Step up after a missed E
Step up when Body Slam (E) hits nobody: its cooldown isn't reduced and stays at 14 to 12 seconds.
- Spread out from your allies
Spread out from your allies: Explosive Cask (R) knocks every enemy away from the impact, which can split you up or send you toward his team.
