Tip from a set main: put his 2 on instant cast, if you just wanna go straight damage and they don’t have anti-heal soul eater works on his ult and really makes you unkillable in his ult
I may have missed it but in case he forgot to say it one cool thing about spawns of set is they give vision, much like a small ward. You can manipulate it with your 1 to make it a moving ward. Something cool to see like FG’s HP.
10:21 "Im sure somebody can channel their inner Duke Sloth and get the math done for us, that's not my expertise" very smart and funny same time, well done Incon :)
Incon moving forward with these guides, could you tell us what abilities are on instant/quick cast etc.? I changed Set’s 2 to instant cast and that really upped my play with him and I think this info would really help. Thank you for these and keep killing it!
@@Priyana_Eagle when you’re in the game, open up your ability info if you’re on pc or press options and go to abilities on PS4, you can then change the casting type on your abilities :)
I've been playing around with him recently because i had a game where the enemy team had a set, he went 32-3 and just would not die. So I gave him a try and he is definitely a really hard character to play right. I've started doing okay with him but I just can't seem to become unkillable like the one that destroyed my team in that game I mentioned earlier.
@@devynmounteer6696Maybe he was a much higher elo player, who knows. Apart from that set is strong, and after 10 games you will get used to it, practice makes perfect.
@Tony Lamontw If you ask me, I don't like this guide too much, go and watch nanosmiteYT set guide which is much better, I can explain it all by myself but it's just too complicated
I see a lot of people say he’s underwhelming and I can understand that, I guess it depends on the enemy comp, but set does some SERIOUS burst damage. Also don’t overcommit with your ult, if you land four basic attacks you get healed, do NOT mistake that with “you get healed in your ult” I constantly see set’s tower diving at level 10 with their ult below half health just cuz I’m around 25%. Just try to think things through and about who you’re up against.
He's only as good as the player that's using him. Set can hard carry sure but if you can't jungle effectively while using your brain it's gonna be pretty tough. He's not like baka which is just all autos. Literally brain dead
Set ult procs off damage not just basics btw. Set one of my mains. Tip if you wanna destroy make sure your safe, ult then 2, 3 to tele on them or ult after tele and spam 2 for aa cancels then press 1 to burst them down to nothing after you have spawns smothering them. Yw
Feel like i have to add, in the ult it isnt just autos but all damage instances that cause stacks. Therefore the 3 is extremely good with its high tick speed.
You can use it for the aoe and then teleport or you can use it to teleport first, it’ll go on cooldown either if you use it for teleport or the aoe effect ends
It’s a bit outdated because of it now being a new season but everything he bought is still a valid hybrid build. Maybe find a season 8 item guide for him. But everything else is still accurate 👍🏻
Crazy how people dont say there are counter matchups in this game even tho people like set/horus heimdall/Persephone persephone/ hades and my team still picks hou yi into awilix
I think they pay attention more to the pro scene. And if the god gets banned over and over and over again its an issue. But just pray the pros dont overuse him. And you good
Watching El Leon play a shitton of Set he says the god is really more a ranked god to carry with but doesn’t really translate that well into competitive.
*in the books. The 1930ish movies, the contemporary movies, and the books are considered different canons so Holmes did say this infamous line, just not the original Holmes.
What I like do is grab items that Debuff on basic attacks cause I like running set as a tank buster. With items like Itrovile (Blue Bow), Exicutioner, Brawlers (if they have good heal. Same with toxic blade), Stone Cutting Sword, what have you. And the items that buff your basic attacks after abilities cause your always gonna start an engagement with lunge and spawns. But that's why I like Set. He's very versatile with how you wanna play them
Blue Tablet. As someone who mains Set (almost there on getting his diamond skin) some lifesteal is fine, but you are going to get assblasted if they buy anti-heal and if they focus you down really well.
@@virustsunami4096 Bloodforge is good for the bulk power which helps your overall burst including hydra's and heartseeker procs (not the shitty 35 power soul eater only has when stacked), and the passive from bloodforge gives survivability in teamfights. Soul Eater also gets easily countered by anti-heal.
assassins are meh in area. Their low health and focus on killing single targets don't work well with the constant ganks of arena. they're much better in conquest when you'll usually only be fighting one or two enemies.
So you have the ability to Blink into a fight and if things are not looking good you, you have your 2 3 combo to teleport out. He said it in the video when he was talking about all the choices he has for relics.
Incon, I love you. But I swear to God, everyone is bringing attention to set. If you get the one skillful jungler in this game nerfed or banned a lot, there's gonna be problems
Soul Eater is pretty trash on Set unless you're playing against scrubs that don't know what antiheal is. Hydra's is good yeah (if you're building more damage oriented).
people playing set against me: dead immediately
me playing set: 0 damage, gets one shot
I feel yah buddy. I had exactly one good game as Set, but one of our teammates left early on and caused our inevitable defeat
Me in assault 😭
@@honeybun3877 actually in assault is not bad, u can poke every one when they're low just dive them
1000000%
Same here.U should try other gods

So this is why I’ve been playing against Set all day in the Middle, solo, and duo lane
10:21 "Im sure somebody can channel their inner Duke Sloth and get the math done for us, that's not my expertise" very smart and funny same time, well done Incon :)
I think you should have said that if you get behind on set he feels like a wet noodle
Fun Fact: Osiris, (the father of Anubis) is Brothers with Set :)
He is father of horus 2
Yes they are both the sons of Geb and nut
That awkward moment when anubis spam laughs osiris when killing him...
Yeah well set kinda cut him in 8 parts too
Neat
Incon moving forward with these guides, could you tell us what abilities are on instant/quick cast etc.?
I changed Set’s 2 to instant cast and that really upped my play with him and I think this info would really help. Thank you for these and keep killing it!
How to set 1 ability to insta cast? But other abilities not.?! Is that possible?
@@Priyana_Eagle when you’re in the game, open up your ability info if you’re on pc or press options and go to abilities on PS4, you can then change the casting type on your abilities :)
He opens the ability menu multiple times per God you can usually see what he has them set to
I love these guides man, you're helping the smite community a lot with this!
Anyone else been playing this game for a few years, still learning, but completely given up on using set? Dude is HARD TO PLAY!
Partially...he feels extremely underwhelming

Incon,
I thank the gods everyday that we are able to pause and rewind you.
Good day Sir.
I need an updated one of these bad boys
Oh snap, im a 6 Set and had no idea leveling the minion increased dash damage 😅 thank you! Great guide.
Set is one of the first gods I started playing literally a year ago its really nice to see him slowly becoming meta
slowly becoming meta? he's been the best god in the game for some time...
10:23 😂 channel the inner dukesloth
If any of your abilities hit someone while your ult is active it will proc the effects it’s not just auto attacks
Yeah, no wonder he wasn't using the 3 for the ulti procs as a priority. Set's healing in a teamfight is freaking insane because of it
Set ult procs off damage not just basics btw. Set one of my mains. Tip if you wanna destroy make sure your safe, ult then 2, 3 to tele on them or ult after tele and spam 2 for aa cancels then press 1 to burst them down to nothing after you have spawns smothering them. Yw

The on man Army, also when did Set become this popular?
Item changes, mainly arrival of the sledge
spl
Recent buff to his 1 and 2 (Shift but mostly buff)
I never build slege.. U need no def item when u kill all xD the problem is no one builds antiheal to set xD
Set was always op and underrated asf. He got like 1 or 2 buffs and people start winning with him like crazy.
my guy saw two dudes coming at him and said " oh!..this will be fun" i need that kind of confidence
So helpful. Thank you.
Been waiting for this!!!
15:20 auctioneer incon
😂
So as long as you’re 3 is up you can teleport? Or does the teleport put it on cooldown?
You can use it for the aoe and then teleport or you can use it to teleport first, it’ll go on cooldown either if you use it for teleport or the aoe effect ends
For you: the spawns of set don't hit the totems
They also dont proc warrior blessing, even when used with 1
What's the song used for the intro? Them snaps snap!
Skill cap looks pretty high and the play style looks very fast
I think your tics etc help me to keep paying attention about what you say👍
One time I got stomped by a set/anubis duo lane. That match was screwy, but man did that guy out damage everything
Would cad shield be an insane item on set?
It’s ok in solo
Is this guide applicable in other game modes as well?
It’s a bit outdated because of it now being a new season but everything he bought is still a valid hybrid build. Maybe find a season 8 item guide for him. But everything else is still accurate 👍🏻
I needed this so bad lol, Thanks!
Crazy how people dont say there are counter matchups in this game even tho people like set/horus heimdall/Persephone persephone/ hades and my team still picks hou yi into awilix
He kinda just seems like a worse kali to me in terms of going all in with ult, am I missing something?
the ults are really different I think, in duration, sustain, and really their whole function. they seem similar tho, stim ults
Bro wym set's ult is fucking op if u dont build anti heal. Set is fucking busted rn.
@@blvddyblvntz567 i’m not saying it’s weak or bad, i’m saying it’s a lot different than kali’s dumbassp

*in the books.

Definitely would not use the same build for all 4 roles that Set can play especially solo
Set main✋
So how about cadeuseus shield on set? Is it still viable?
Are you in pain when you talk?
Very good Sir!
Papa incon!
Take this like for the Mulan reference
Incon is the best
Title: play this god anywhere! Me: Very poor choice of words
With only attackspeed items and silverbranch he can reach 500 Damage while in Ulti

i like to run lifesteal on set is that bad?

I always build souleater.. Its amazing
Soul Eater is generally bad, but bloodforge lategame is fine.
Souleater is bad when u got 4 dmg abilities n hela a ton.. But bloodforge is ok when u auto almost nothing nd first need to get the kill? Ok

Tried Set in Arena eh was ok. Maybe Im just not very good.
assassins are meh in area. Their low health and focus on killing single targets don't work well with the constant ganks of arena. they're much better in conquest when you'll usually only be fighting one or two enemies.
Bout time
21 - 3 and they're not surrendering...
Is it bad all I play is joust😂
Thx for thr vid
Mr Incon Please do a Xbal guide, I’m having fun with him but I wanna be better with him
We are in the S gods, wait the X, and Xbalanque will be here ;)
It's not true what they say. Women are not better at multitasking. Check this out lol: 06:54
It makes me triggered that he didn’t get the godlike
Sol guide soon?
Yeah, next one will be skadi and then sol... He's following alphabetical order
Why would you get blink on set😂
So you have the ability to Blink into a fight and if things are not looking good you, you have your 2 3 combo to teleport out. He said it in the video when he was talking about all the choices he has for relics.
I man it’s all preference but yea I’d rather start with beads then aegis/shell
Besides having an escape ability it allows you to gank easier (he also said this in the vid)
I mean if you dive in with your 3 most people are just going to focus you and destroy you instantly because you have no way to get out lol
Incon, I love you. But I swear to God, everyone is bringing attention to set. If you get the one skillful jungler in this game nerfed or banned a lot, there's gonna be problems
Skillful.. lol
Imo the game is too loud
I am a rat
I am dog
It's an insult how broken set is
Not building Hydras or Soul Eater on Set is a cardinal sin
Not really, the best set is a hybrid set especially if you’re fed you’ll literally never die.
Soul Eater is pretty trash on Set unless you're playing against scrubs that don't know what antiheal is. Hydra's is good yeah (if you're building more damage oriented).
@@kriegaone3658 You mean pretty much every game? No one buys anti heal against me when i play Set

This guy twitches so much it actually annoys me.
im unsure but he might have a condition that cause it because it affects his voice to either way it aint that hard to just not look at him
