Best Sett Summoner's Spells

Best Sett Abilities Order

To master Sett, you don't only need to get the best items and know the next two attacks mechanics. If you want to one-shot other champions and love dealing damage at the summoner's rift, then follow this skill order: Knuckle Down (Q), Haymaker (W), and Facebreaker (E). As advice, when fighting against enemy champions, reserve your W and E until the end, that way you will deal more damage to surrounding enemies during the team fights with your W and your E can guarantee you hit at least one enemy.
