Can we, at the very least, change her Blinding Assault debuff from nearsight back to the blind that she had before? Her old blind has more value in the top lane than her nearsight. The nearsight is practically useless when facing melee tops, and is hated by a high percentage of the community, which led to unwarranted nerfs to the champion. The blind, lasting about a second or so IIRC, seems to yield better results in the lane.
RcGjWO640w1 votesThe problem is that Quinn just isn't a lane bully like she used to be. People can say she is all they want, but she's annoying, not actually a real threat. Most champs scale into the mid game harder than she does.
Quinn is not a lane champion. If she's being played like that, then she's being played wrong. Quinn is a good duelist only if played really well. She kind of has the same mechanics in that department as Vayne, but doesn't deal nearly the same amount of damage.
What Quinn does is she's a god-tier ganker and split pusher. Much like Shaco, if she's split pushing, there's a very low chance that you actually catch her assuming she's warded and doesn't overstay. She shows up in your lane, shoves it down with the full speed as any ADC and when she's getting collapsed on, she ults and leaves. She's moving so fast that you'll rarely catch her and she'll literally just move to another lane and do it all over again.
You can't babysit a Quinn. You can't follow a Quinn when she roams because nobody can match her speed and map pressure. Nobody.
Really good players can play Quinn as a duelist and a laner, but she's best designed for other purposes. Believe me, her blind is annoying, but that's all it really does. It's a CC that's really irritating to deal with, but it's rarely life threatening unless she's fed and you're squishy. Quinn does have quite a bit of burst.

I agree with everything you said except for the Vayne part. Quinn is one of Vayne's hardest counters and can blow her up with a single, simultaneous proc of harrier and statik shiv come late game, and if the first auto doesn't kill her, the second most definitely will. Remember, Vayne has to get off at least three autoattacks before she procs her true damage. Vayne, while being able to pop and shred, cannot burst, as that is her one of her biggest limitations and weakness as a champion. The only time Vayne will win in a match-up of pure skill is if she's able to condemn her, otherwise Quinn will vault off her the moment she comes out of stealth, or just have an oracle lens on-hand, interrupt and put on that nearsight hurt which is going to prevent Vayne from getting off the autoattacks she needs as she can't see Quinn, and Quinn will have placed herself well outside of Vayne's freshly limited sight radius.
RcGjWO640w1 votesI didn't mean Quinn wasn't a counter to Vayne, I meant that Quinn requires roughly similar mechanics as Vayne to be successful as a duelist. If you can't kite or juke, you're just going to get blown up.
