Guide to Synergizing Swain and Sett

Tips for Playing as Swain with Sett

While laning, try to use Death's Hand's piercing damage to damage opponents from a safe distance.

Vision of Empire is quite difficult to land on its own, look for skirmishes around the map where enemies may be distracted or crowd controlled so you can land it more easily.

If you're having trouble rooting an enemy with Nevermove, try throwing it at opponents when they are near their minions so the explosion surprises them.

Demonic Ascension may make Swain very hard to kill but he's pretty easy to get away from. Try building items that can slow opponents to keep them in range if their mobility is overwhelming.

Overall, Swain sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Sett. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN.

This could indicate that Sett does not support by providing cover for him to deal more damage or that his participation also helps increase the game's duration. Similarly, when Swain is played alongside Sett on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays without Sett. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Sett.

Additionally, when Swain plays with Sett on the same side, he typically takes a little less damage than when he plays alone. Taking not as much damage may indicate that Sett does a decent job of protecting Swain in team fights.

Is Swain better when played alongside Sett?

There is no ideal companion for Swain that will 100% of the time be his top synergy. However, Sett is a decent teammate for Swain. By locking into the same side as Swain, he raises their win rate by 1.0% to 52.3%. This signals that there is a somewhat important bond between Swain and Sett that allows them to perform better together than without each other.

Sett has a much lower diffuclty than Swain. That means Swain players don't need to be careful when lining up Sett teammates to play with, as they will have to have a much lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Working on the same side, you should observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to tank a lot of damage. When paired, these champions will be a great protective duo.

In contrast, by grouping Swain and Sett together, you will not be providing your team a lot of utility. Make sure to pick other champs on your team that nullifies this relative hole in their kit.

Regardless of your Sett ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well, regardless.
