Read from Sett's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Master Yi.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Sett | Your passive fists and trade stats beat him outright at level 1. |
| Level 2 | Sett | Your shielded Haymaker burst keeps you ahead through level 2. |
| Level 3 | Sett | At 3 Facebreaker cancels Meditate and starts your full combo. |
| Levels 4-5 | Sett | Through 4-5 you out-trade him; Wuju Style is 14s and true damage. |
| Level 6 | Sett | At 5-6 your CC and burst keep the kill pressure firmly yours. |
| First item | Sett | With your first item and The Show Stopper online, the suppress can flat-out kill him. |
| Two+ items | Master Yi | Late his true damage and Highlander's slow immunity beat your HP bar — end it first. |
You beat him at every stage of the lane: passive fists win level 1, the shielded Haymaker keeps you ahead at 2, and Facebreaker from 3 onward both starts your combo and cancels Meditate, his only sustain, on its flat 10s. His plan is surviving to late — deny farm, call dives, make the lane a nightmare.
