Answer

Ruling: No, Deathknell does not trigger when a creature's death is prevented by Sett or Hourglass because the creature does not actually die.

Nuances:

  • Sett and Hourglass provide replacement effects that prevent the creature from leaving the battlefield or dying
  • The creature gets healed back up or saved instead of dying

Does this answer look correct?
