Playing as Sett

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. Stand between two enemies

    Stand between two enemies before Facebreaker (E): grabbed from both sides, they're stunned, otherwise only slowed.

  5. 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 Malphite

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Pop his shield before trading

    Break Granite Shield (passive) with a cheap hit before taking a real trade: it absorbs 10% of his max health and triples his bonus armor.

  2. Lean on magic damage

    If you deal magic damage, lean on it in trades: his only resistances come from Thunderclap (W), which only gives armor.

  3. Trade when his mana runs low

    Trade when his mana runs low: Seismic Shard (Q) costs 70 to 90 mana, and it's his only ranged slow.

  4. Respect his level 6

    Once he hits level 6, only step up if he's visible: Unstoppable Force (R) comes from far away, nothing stops it, and its impact knocks every enemy in the area into the air.

  5. Spread out from your allies

    When he has Unstoppable Force (R), spread out from your allies in teamfights: the impact knocks every enemy in the area into the air.
