Sett vs Fizz

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Sett should use his high early lane pressure to force Fizz into uncomfortable melee trades and deny him easy all-in windows.
Control the lane by forcing close-range brawls where Sett's grit and (W) shield excel, limiting Fizz's short burst trades.
This is a control vs snowball matchup where Sett must manage wave and cooldowns to prevent Fizz's level 6 kill threat.

Trading pattern

Start trades with autos and (E) to pull Fizz near minions and stun, then build grit before landing a centered (W) for max damage.
Punish Fizz when he uses (E) recklessly by engaging immediately before it resets.
Avoid spending (W) if Fizz can sidestep the center; instead, bait cooldowns and re-engage when (W) is more effective.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (E) is up, as it allows him to dodge your engage and burst you down quickly.
Respect Fizz's level 6 (R) window where he can all-in or roam for kills; avoid overextending without vision.
Sett is vulnerable after missing (E) or spending (W) shield; avoid extended trades during these cooldowns.

Early game

Punish Fizz's weak pre-level 3 by stepping up aggressively to force trades and chip him before his combo unlocks.
Use wave pressure to keep Fizz near minions and in range for (E) pulls and grit trades.
Avoid extended chases since Sett's low mobility makes him vulnerable to (E) dodge and burst.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to reposition Fizz into your team or minion wave for guaranteed follow-up and forced brawls.
After your first bruiser item, increase pressure by forcing trades that capitalize on your improved durability and (W) payoff.
Respect Fizz's level 3 unlock of his (Q)+(W)+(E) combo and level 6 (R) ultimate by spacing carefully and saving defensive cooldowns.

Win conditions

Win lane by forcing melee trades that build grit and landing grit-backed (W) true damage before Fizz can react.
Use (R) after Fizz commits or to disrupt his positioning, enabling your team to follow up and secure kills.
Deny Fizz safe farming and roaming by maintaining lane pressure and punishing cooldowns to prevent his snowball potential.
