Proplay Question
hey guys, so with the 5.24 nerfs to Quinn, do you guys still think that she will be picked in competitive play? Allstars, springsplits, LCS, etc. Will the pros finally pick her and bring her into the spotlight?

no shes only good for solo que even on 5.23 too many better champions with better team comp fits instead of quin who can only really be used in certain comps. If you see it its most likely only because someone just wanted to play it.
She has very high winrate in soloQ, but pretty mediocre in ranked teams. When the enemy team is communicating properly her lane partner should be able to say "hey, botlane, some big-a*s bird is delivering a high-dmg-blinding cute girl (I do not care what u think, she is cute) towards you, bring yourselves under the turret".
But i love Quinn and i really hope to see her in proplayer hands.
probably not, as most pros know how to play defensive in a losing matchup and if you don´t feed Quinn early on she really doesn´t do all that much in games.
though ofc we have seen a lot of Mundo-jungling in the IWC allstars - and as expected it failed rather horribly on a level were it´s very hard to get a snowball going. SO maybe some teams will try it, but my bet is that only teams that are favourites anyway will find success with it.
She is going to be surely used as a niche pick by someone competitively. That global mobility through ulti is something that will not be ignored forever in pro play, as splitpusher/roamer or to counter strong splitpushing comp she wil surely be used If 5.24 nerfs go through, Quinn simply lose any chance to become a meta pick like she could have in a possible future, and is just relegated to smaller niche picks forever till buffs
About what lane she will be used in...bot in some istances to replace a Sivir when not against hyper damage ADCs (but this will rare as long as the actuall meta ADCs remain the actual ones), or especially top against top laners with small range and without reliable stuns (for example against a Rumble) as counterpick
