Set The Usurper. The true King

Set has some of the strongest burst in the game. High potential to kill an entire team. Make short work of a tank. Two hit a backliner. You name it.

Handling the early

Your Skewer slows enemies enough for you to box them and stop them from getting away.
1.) Engage with autos and try to box. Slowing with your 1/2 combo
2.) You farm extremely well. Run from camp to camp as quick as possible to keep your passive up. If your passive is about to wear out in the early three camps. Skewer the second you get in the camps radius
3.) Fight for enemy camps if you can. You hit hard. Harder then most gods early

Mid game

At Lv.5 you can take on anyone in ult with your 3 active. Focus on your mana. If youre topped off spam your 2 on the enemy youre boxing. Chase with your 2/3 combo if they dash or leap.

Once you have cooldown online you should look to fight if ahead

Late game

Playing your range and poking is the key. If your tanks cant engage properly you will get nuked by anyone that turns to you. You still have the best damage on the map but youre squishy and the enemy team WILL build anti heal.

Alot of the time i end up with two good defense items. So i can start a fight of outbox a crit hunter. Make sure you have your beads or you have a magis cloak

Picking Set into aggressive comps/comps with natural anti heal

Dealing with anti heal is tough. Your ult requires you "All in" a fight. Running away is easy with movement speed.

Play around the abilities that apply anti heal

Wait for an opening or let your team lead.

As selfish as it is make your team eat abilities. If someone dives your backline where you will be. Dont ult unless you need to. Box them and make them back up

Diving low hp targets

Line up. Fake a back. Ect
Throw your 2. 3 to it and immediately 1.
The mitigations you get can tank a tower shot or two. But your skewer does good damage.
This combo has caught many people off guard or window shopping. You close the gap quickly and your damage goes off quickly. Dont try it to many times in a game. Let some kills go
