How to win lane as Sett against Yasuo · 54.05% win rate over 4,605 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Sett | Sett bullies lvl 1: Yasuo's move-shield is fragile and Q pokes it off before he can trade back. |
| Level 2 | Sett | Sett stays ahead lvl 2 with more base damage and Grit-shielded autos while Yasuo lacks E yet. |
| Level 3 | Sett | Level 3 E Facebreaker lets Sett pin Yasuo through his dashes and land free W. |
| Levels 4-5 | Sett | Levels 4-5 Sett out-trades with Grit shields as Yasuo's squishy early build folds to Haymaker. |
| Level 6 | Sett | Level 6 R The Show Stopper gives Sett a hard lockdown kill off any E-pull. |
| First item | Sett | First item Sett's bruiser sustain beats Yasuo's still-fragile crit-building frame. |
| Two+ items | Yasuo | At 2+ items Yasuo's crit power, kiting, and Windwall flip the matchup in his favour. |
You bully the early lane hard: Yasuo's passive shield only holds after moving, so poke it off with Q Knuckle Down before you commit, and use E to stick to him when he tries to E through minions.
