What makes Sett dangerous

Sett builds a grit shield from damage taken, punches with alternating fists (his W stores and unleashes big true damage), and his ultimate slams a target down and displaces everyone around it. He's a durable frontliner who all-ins your backline and won't die in a straight brawl.

What each of Sett's abilities does — and how to play around it.

Itemization

Sett deals mixed physical and true damage. His true damage ignores armor, so don't rely on stacking it — kite him, use slows and Grievous Wounds against tank-sustain builds, and blow him up only after his grit shield expires.
