Sett - The Most Controversial Juggernaut | League of Legends

Since there were quite a number of comments contesting my stance on Sett being a reasonably designed champion (at least compared to all the other contemporary ones), I decided to make a video explaining what I mean! :D

I love Skooch’s explanation of sett

A DUDE WHO PUNCH HARD, AND WHEN YOU PUNCH HIM HE PUNCH MORE HARD

[greatgatorgaming]

My newbie friends dont stare at me blankly when i explain sett to them unlike other champions so I’d say he’s simple.

[Vladrosewood]

He's simple, but simple enough to make the enemy miserable

[ednorthon]

Vars: “Mathematically Correct Sett” meme
DeepLeague: *my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined*

[sorinnoctis]

he feels like an old school top laner. thats what i like about him. he just has these periods in combat where he feels busted. similar to old Ryse

[CLxJames]

Slightly overtuned… maybe. I can’t hate him though, his design just has so much swagger

[OklahomaHotdog]

Only the numbers are a bit crazy, but Sett is not Akali, 200 years or Yuumi level etc.

[AndyBrixton]

Sett's inherent health regen is the reason he is not really weak to poke damage.

[meriammcharek]

Simple tbh
passive makes him punch fast
Q makes him punch hard
W makes him punch u for punching him
E makes him grab u close to punch u
And ult makes him batista bomb

[akoskormendi]

When you talk about consistently widdling his health down, you forget Sett has passive regeneration based on missing health. While not much, Doran+Second Wind+Revitalize makes him a pain since he heals hp back much quicker, if you come out of a trade even or barely top, you lost the trade. Which is pretty unfair seeing how he is anti-burst, this makes him anti-burst and poke resiliant.

Sett just needs adjustments in numbers, specifically his 2nd passive, the regen is a bit too much, even I myself laugh at the absurd regen is I get when playing Sett

[Discotechque]

To answer, I don't think it's overloaded. His kit is very straightforward, has clear strengths and weaknesses and has a distinct window for reward and punishment.

It's not that his numbers are problematic, it's how juggernaut items are designed well to mesh with his W, too well in fact.

Building HP for survivability whilst getting rewarded with damage is what makes him look overpowered, and that wasn't a problem when mathematically correct Sett wasn't discovered yet.

Sett didn't suddenly become broken overnight, infact his W's HP scaling wasn't touched and just the AD scaling and Base damage got moved.

So, what happened? Maybe because of Gore drinker missing HP » Damage and its active that enables him to throw 4-6 max grit W's in a team fight, or the fact that you can build purely HP and go up to 6K HP easily to achieve damage that can one shot Squishies, or the fact that he is rewarded for building what he's supposed to build and playing how he's supposed to be played.

We may never know, ask Kevin nextdoor if he knows.

People like Sett because he's simple
People *Don't* like Sett because he's effective

[VolodyaTheFroge]

The only thing i dont like in sett is his numbers right now. He has almost the same attack damage as darius and the same attack speed, but sett has double attack passive, which hurts very much in early game when you play champions who can't kite.

[traine]

Setts strongest skill requires him to lose half his health super fast to use a very easily dodged skill and then die

[zertyf]

9:30 Yeah good luck poking him down in lane with the absurd health regen on his 2nd passiv

[mreksioyt]

Ah yes the classic: avoid 2000 true damage spot when he can flash during his W. And even if you avoid his middle then you still get 2000 normal damage on your face

[TricksterIan]

I don't have a lot of time playing, but Sett was the newest champion when i started and was simple enough for me, a guy who never played a MOBA before, to understand in a matter of minutes. Still, he has a considerable high skill ceiling so it doesn't feel braindead. You can´t just play autopilot with or against him. I think he's in the right place.

[LordZemus]

I feel that rather than overloaded, he's a straightforward champ, an "honest" champ if you will. His kit is simple to use and uncomplicated to learn, but his entire kit is so filled with additional skills and passives that you pretty much get stuff for free by doing a fraction of the work other straightforward/honest champions do. Sett (and pretty much all new champions) pretty much start out with a 3k gold item effect without the stats.

[MrLuzakman]

There is just one thing that enrages me in Sett. Being tank is already suffering, so I wasn't really disgusted eating 1, 5k true damage. The thing that seems absolutely disgusting to me is the fact that you can't interrupt W channel. There are shitton of different powerful but slow moves in this game but almost any of those can get interrupted. Sion is prime example. You can stun him during Q charge and it gets completely nullified. You can stun Rek Sai during her e tunnel dive and she unburrows on spot. There are CC immune skills in game, sure, but they are all purely defensive and none of them makes you also eat more than thousand true damage
