Does Sett's passive work with Baited Hook when the unit is not actually killed?

Ruling: Sett's passive does not work with Baited Hook if the unit is not actually killed. The unit must be actually killed through Baited Hook's ability for the interaction to work.

Sequence:

  • If Sett is buffed (e.g., by 4 Might) and then properly killed by Baited Hook, you can take a unit with Might equal to or less than Sett's total Might
  • If Sett Legend saves the Might-boosted Sett, Baited Hook does not trigger the kill effect
  • You still look at the top 5 cards and recycle them even if the unit is not killed

Nuances:

  • The deck can still be good even though this specific interaction doesn't work as intended
  • Sett can still be used to save things from spells and combat, and Baited Hook can get value from killing weaker units
