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 Renekton
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Trade when he's under 50 Fury
Take a trade when his Fury is under 50: above that, Ruthless Predator (W) destroys your shields and stuns you twice as long.
- Trade after his dashes
Take a trade once he has used both Slice and Dice (E) dashes: it's his only way to reach you or get out, on a 16 to 10 second cooldown.
- Back off when he casts Dominus
Once he hits level 6, back off when he casts Dominus (R): he gains max health, builds Fury every second, and damages enemies around him.
- Drag the game out
If you survive his first minutes, play for time: Renekton looks to get ahead in lane, before everyone has their items.
