Sett Power Spikes (Patch 26.20)

Jungle

When Sett Jungle gets stronger, in the order it happens in a typical ranked game: ability unlocks from the most common skill order, item spikes at the median minute players finish them, and the game length Sett wins most.

Item timings are medians: half of players finish later. Fall behind in farm and every item spike moves back with it.

Sett Jungle Laning Plan

Sett scales: losing a little gold in lane is normal. Farm safely, avoid early all-ins and win the late game. On average Sett Jungle is 275 gold behind the lane opponent at 15 minutes and ahead in only 41% of games. A 1,000-gold lead at 15 turns into a 67% win rate; a 1,000-gold deficit leaves 26%. Sett averages 0.23 solo kills by 15 minutes.

Sett Mid and Late Game

What Sett does better or worse than other champions after laning, from this patch's ranked games — percentiles where 100 is the highest of every champion.

Play to these strengths

  • Side-lane pressure pays: Sett rates 93/100 for damage to buildings. Push a side wave while the team holds mid.
  • Sett soaks damage well (percentile 83): stand between the enemy and your carries.
  • Sett is a main damage source (82/100): stay alive and in range for the whole fight rather than diving first.
  • Play around dragons, Grubs and Baron — Sett rates 76/100 for objective control.
  • Sett wins 15.7 points more in long games than short ones: avoid coin-flip fights early and let the game go long.
