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 Volibear

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Charge in, then stun

    Cast Thundering Smash (Q) to charge at your target: your speed doubles when heading toward a champion, and your next auto stuns them.

  2. Two Frenzied Mauls on one target

    Hit the same target twice with Frenzied Maul (W): the second hit, on the marked target, hits harder and heals you based on your missing health.

  3. Stay under your lightning

    Cast Sky Splitter (E) where you're fighting and stay in the zone: when the lightning strikes, you gain a shield, and enemies hit are slowed.

  4. Dive the tower with your ult

    To dive under a tower, cast Stormbringer (R) near it: on landing, you disable it for a few seconds, and you gain bonus health.

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.
