Sett vs Teemo

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Sett should use his high early agency and lane pressure to force Teemo into difficult melee trades and deny him safe poke windows.
This is a control matchup where Sett must leverage close-range brawls and grit trades to prevent Teemo from scaling comfortably.

Trading pattern

Initiate trades by auto-attacking and using (E) to pull Teemo close, then spend grit with centered (W) for maximum damage and shield.
Punish Teemo when his (Q) blind is down by committing to melee trades.
Avoid trading when (W) center can be sidestepped or when you have no grit built for the shield and true damage.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (Q) blind is available as it negates your auto damage and trade potential.
Avoid standing near minions or allies where your (E) pull can stun you instead.
Watch for trap clusters after level 6 that can slow and punish your engages; sweep or avoid trapped areas.

Early game

Start aggressive trades early to build grit and force Teemo to respect your engage range before level 6.
Use wave positioning to threaten (E) stuns by baiting Teemo near minions.
Avoid extended chases to prevent getting poked down before your cooldowns reset.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to displace and isolate Teemo, forcing favorable all-ins.
After your first bruiser item, increase pressure by forcing trades where your grit-backed (W) is harder to ignore.
Respect Teemo's level 6 trap control with (R), sweeping them before engaging or chasing to avoid slows and damage.

Win conditions

Win lane by forcing Teemo into melee trades where you can stack grit and land centered (W) for strong brawls.
Use level 6 (R) to control positioning and force side-lane fights or team engagements.
Maintain lane pressure to deny Teemo safe farming and trap setups, enabling you to snowball or roam effectively.
