what are you thanking riot for? wtf

this champion is a better assassin THAN ANY ASSASSIN IN THE GAME LOL, you have a train rushing you with edge of the night shield press a point and click dash+AA+quick skillshot while you're slowed and that's it you're dead

meanwhile zed has no counterplay right

and quinn is a better lane bully than darius

thanks

don't forget that point and click dash puts her safely out of melee range, because we can't have our glorious ranged ADs being counter attacked

Riot's goal is to make facing every champion a horrible experience so nobody can complain.

Quinn was the beginning.

As someone who mains her, let me give you some insight.

Quinn's Q is an AoE ability on hit, so yeah you're not automatically safe behind your minions. It only reduces vision for the first target it hits however and actually is a very thin projectile, so as far as skillshots go it's pretty easy to dodge.

Her auto-attacks have been a bit buggy since like forever and the marksman update while removing a couple also added some of its own. One of those being that all auto-attacks for example use the crit animation. This makes it very easy to accidentally cancel your attack and that might make it seem as if her range differs at times. It doesn't though.

For melee champs I can imagine her E must be pretty annoying yeah. Used correctly it's basically an anti-engage. When a champ that dashes on her applies CC of its own Quinn still gets affected though. Shen, Pantheon and Camille have one of those for example. These usually make for pretty decent lane counters.

Karma's Q is also an AoE explosion. It's supposed to hit you if you're close behind minions.

I don't get these bullsh*t hitboxes like Quinn or Karma Q which hit you behind minions, sometimes...Quinns autoattacks have a weird range tho, sometimes and her E is the most annoying abbility in this game

Both of their Q's are AOE, of course they can hit you behind minions

She's annoying as hell in lane, but I don't feel she's that great afterwards unless she gets fed. When she doesn't snowball, she's kind of like Nid, where 20-30 minutes in I'm like "we have a Quinn on our team?"

Lane bullies in a nutshell. Almost like Quinn is one of those. She drops off like a rock if you don't let her kill you, but I guess that's the tricky part for some people.

Ranged lane bullies are a bit harder to farm against than melee lane bullies.

Unless you play Sion he counters quinn

Great contribution to the overall discussion of Quinn. Good job.

But if she isn't overpowered snowball ranged (practically) manaless toplane cancer, they might actually have to think for a bit about what to do with her.

make her into a bot lane adc, problem solved!

ThefrostyvikingFeb 10, 20171 votes

She'd need a rework for that x) Too short range to last in lane against common ADC's and too ability reliant.

I don't know if it still works but Yasuo used to be able to ult Quinn when she used her E. Self CC not so OP.

She is honestly closer played to some ranged assassin than ADC. Conditional damage, ability reliant for the most part but massive burst if conditions are met and great roaming.
