Sett vs Kennen

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Sett should pressure Kennen early to deny his poke and prevent safe scaling.
This matchup is a control vs teamfight duel where Sett must force close trades and avoid prolonged poke damage.

Trading pattern

Start trades by engaging with autos and (E) to lock Kennen near minions for a stun.
Use grit-backed (W) centered on Kennen to maximize damage and shield during trades.
Punish Kennen after he uses (E) to reposition or escape, as his mobility is down.

Danger windows

Kennen is dangerous when he has multiple marks stacked and (R) ready; avoid clustered fights then.
Be cautious when (E) is up on Kennen as he can engage or escape, making trades riskier.
Sett is vulnerable after missing (E) or spending (W) without grit; avoid extended poke during these windows.

Early game

Use early melee trades with autos and (E) to build grit and punish Kennen's attempts to farm safely.
Avoid extended trades where Kennen stacks marks; instead, force short brawls when (E) is off cooldown.
Keep wave close to threaten (E) stun angles and force Kennen to risk melee range.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to displace Kennen and force favorable brawls or teamfights.
After first bruiser item, leverage increased durability and (W) damage to dominate trades.
Respect Kennen's level 6 (R) as it enables area stuns and flank engages; avoid grouping tightly.

Win conditions

Win lane by forcing melee trades with (E) stuns and grit-backed (W) damage to deny Kennen scaling.
Use level 6 (R) to initiate or turn fights by displacing Kennen into your team or under tower.
Apply side-lane pressure post-level 6 to force Kennen into unfavorable brawls or miss farm.

Tip: For Sett vs Kennen, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Top lane check.
