Excellent (8/10)

Sett is the most fluid combo-based champion in the game, pulling off infinite combos with incredible mana refund loops while gaining free stats and rallies in the process. The downside though, is Sett is heavily reliant on chemtech duplicator and is barely a champion until you get to 6 mana, at which point he becomes THE BOSS and wins.

Titanic Ramp
  • Starforged Gauntlets icon

    Extra Mana means Chemtech comes online 1 turn sooner.

  • Luminous Orb icon

    Grants the necessary health to push Sett into the Titanic threshold, activating Starforged Gauntlets.

  • Chemtech Duplicator icon

    The absolute core of Sett's strategy. Doubles all spells and coin generation once six mana is reached.

Strategy

Chemtech doubles all of Sett's spells including the mana gained from coins. This can often lead to infinite loops where spells grant coins that grant more mana than you started with, leading to free stats and free rallies from Sett's abilities.

Other Relic Options
  • Echoing Spirit icon

    Fills the deck with Sett copies, ensuring consistent access to his champion spell for continuous stuns and coin generation.

  • The Grand General's Counterplan icon

    Provides high value once you reach the Chemtech threshold, stunning the board and generating coins that pay for the cost to play the spell.

Sett's relic flexibility is somewhat low, as Chemtech Duplicator is universally considered mandatory for his core gameplay loop. Relics that provide Overwhelm or combat stats are generally less effective than relics that accelerate his mana or duplicate his spells.

Inefficient Relic Options
  • The Beast Within icon

    Considered a trap on Sett. While Overwhelm is generally strong, Sett's inherent ability to generate multiple rallies and obliterates makes Overwhelm unnecessary for closing out games.

    Review

    A massive power spike. The extra mana gem accelerates his entire game plan, allowing Chemtech Duplicator to come online a turn earlier.

  • Icon for Hired Muscle

    Hired Muscle

    When you play a Coin with 5+ stacks, summon Sett. If you already have a Sett, create a Show Stopper in hand instead.
    Review

    Enables Sett to come online earlier, but this upgrade is still less impactful than the c5 mana gem. Even with C6, you're not winning until you have 6 mana gems and Chemtech.

Gameplay Tips
  • The Six Mana Threshold

Sett's entire game plan revolves around reaching six maximum mana. Prioritize survival and mana acceleration in the early rounds, as activating Chemtech Duplicator will immediately stabilize the board through duplicated coin generation and stuns.

  • Managing Hand Size

Sett's coin generation and card draw can quickly fill your hand. Be mindful of overdrawing, especially when using relics like The Grand General's Counterplan, to ensure you do not obliterate key combo pieces.

  • Tracking Mana Expenditure

Pay close attention to the total mana you have spent in a round. Sett's passive abilities and Showstopper generation require precise math, and miscalculating your mana spent can leave you short of a critical rally or obliterate.
