Renekton vs Sett

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Renekton should leverage his high early game agency and lane pressure to dominate Sett before he scales.
Focus on snowballing early leads through fury-enhanced burst trades to prevent Sett from reaching his item spikes.

Trading pattern

Engage with (E) to close distance, use empowered (W) for stun and burst, then finish with (Q) and exit with second (E) to avoid Sett's counter.
Punish Sett when he misses (E) or uses (W) poorly by forcing quick trades and backing off before grit stacks become dangerous.
Avoid trading with low fury or after using both (E) dashes forward to prevent being caught in Sett's brawling range.

Danger windows

Be cautious when Sett has built grit and his (W) shield is up, as his true damage and stun threat increase.
Avoid staying near minions where Sett can land (E) stun from both sides, forcing you into melee brawls.
After using both (E) dashes forward, your escape is limited; retreat or play safe until cooldown resets.

Early game

Use level 1-3 to aggressively build fury and control the wave, forcing Sett into unfavorable trades.
Avoid extended fights where Sett can stack grit and use his shield effectively.
Prioritize short trades with empowered (W) and quick disengages before Sett can respond.

Power spikes

At level 3, use full combo with (Q), (W), and (E) to maximize burst and pressure Sett before he can build grit.
At level 6, activate (R) to add durability and convert short trades into all-ins or dives when Sett is low.
Respect Sett's level 6 (R) as it can reposition you into danger; avoid extended trades without (R) or high fury.

Win conditions

Snowball by winning early short trades with high fury and empowered (W) to deny Sett scaling.
Use wave control to force Sett into risky melee range where you can punish his lack of mobility.
Leverage level 6 (R) and lane priority to force all-ins or dives, converting early leads into lane dominance.
