LeBlanc vs Sett

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

LeBlanc must leverage her high mobility and burst to avoid Sett's melee brawls and punish his low mobility.
This is a snowball-oriented matchup where LeBlanc pressures early to deny Sett's scaling and force him into unfavorable trades.

Trading pattern

Use (W) to burst and reposition, then threaten (E) root if Sett cannot escape.
Punish Sett hard if (W) is missed or (E) pull fails, as his biggest damage and control tools are then down.
Avoid engaging with (W) if you cannot chain abilities cleanly to prevent being punished for a missed engage.

Danger windows

Respect (E) stun and pull, especially when near minions or allies, as it sets up his burst trades.
Avoid standing in melee range when Sett has built grit to maximize his (W) shield and true damage.
Be cautious after using (W) to engage and missing, as Sett can punish LeBlanc's low waveclear and cooldowns then.

Early game

Use level 2 burst with (Q) plus (W) or (E) to trade aggressively when Sett is vulnerable.
Avoid prolonged trades that let Sett build grit and trigger his (W) shield and true damage.
Maintain spacing to dodge (E) pull and avoid standing near minions to prevent his stun setup.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks LeBlanc's full burst combo; use this window to force trades Sett can't contest.
Level 6 (R) allows LeBlanc to (R) abilities for picks or defensive resets; track (R) cooldown to commit safely.
First completed AP burst item significantly increases LeBlanc's damage and trade reliability; pressure waves and trades more confidently then.

Win conditions

Win lane by using verified cooldown windows and clean ability chains to burst Sett before he can engage.
Deny Sett melee trades by maintaining spacing and punishing his cooldowns to prevent grit buildup.
Use level 6 (R) and mobility to create picks, roam effectively, and reset safely to snowball lane dominance.
