Sett vs Neeko

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Sett should pressure Neeko early to deny her safe scaling and force melee trades where he excels.
Control the wave near your side to threaten (E) stuns and force Neeko into risky positioning.
This is a control vs teamfight matchup where Sett aims to disrupt Neeko's pick and burst potential.

Trading pattern

Start trades by engaging with autos and (E) to trap Neeko near minions and follow with grit-backed (W) for max damage.
Punish Neeko immediately after she misses (E) root or when she sidesteps (W) to force cooldowns.
Avoid using (W) when Neeko can easily dodge the center; instead, bait her mobility or (W) clone to land it effectively.

Danger windows

Neeko is most dangerous when (E) can pass through minions to root and when (R) is available for burst and knock-up.
Avoid extended trades if you miss (E) or if (W) is spent or dodged, as your threat drops significantly.
Be cautious around Neeko's disguise and clone (W), which can mislead your engage timing and positioning.

Early game

Use early levels to engage short trades with autos and (E) to build grit and force Neeko out of position.
Avoid extended trades where Neeko can poke safely or sidestep your (W) center.
Maintain lane pressure to prevent Neeko from freely using (E) through minions for root setups.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to reposition Neeko for a guaranteed follow-up and force all-in fights.
After first bruiser item, leverage increased durability and damage to pressure Neeko into short trades.
Respect Neeko's level 6 (R) window; hold key defensive tools and avoid committing without (R) down.

Win conditions

Win lane by forcing close-range trades where you can stack grit and land centered (W) damage.
Use (R) after Neeko commits or to set up side-lane pressure and teamfight engages.
Deny Neeko calm scaling by controlling wave state and punishing missed (E) roots and (R) cooldown windows.
