Do you guys have any plans with Quinn?

When I say this I'm more referencing to nerfs. As little as she is played, she is overpowered whenever I see her. Her harrier that always targets champions first makes her autos do a balanced 100 damage at level 1. I don't think that many champions can do that with an auto at level 1. Sure you probably could definitely buff her late game, but honestly I have yet to see a bad Quinn player besides myself and she scales almost as well as Draven into late game. Draven, the person with the 800 damage autos to tanks, is almost outscaled because of a random mechanism like crit that highly amplifies her damage that can stack with crit too. Then, to top things off, she has an AoE blind. She is a freaking Teemo except can kill one about 10 times faster than Teemo can kill you. Could she get some sort of rework yet, or at least a nerf to her auto range so she can't just consistantly auto you until you're low enough for her to vault in and kill you? But still, she isn't even played bot lane anymore. Everyone just plays her top and mid, except nobody can beat her as everyone either lacks poke or will go out of mana before they can kill her. Rito please.

Actually, she is outranged by almost all other ADCs. This is actually a pretty big disadvantage, especially when facing champions like Jinx and Caitlyn who can all land a few AAs before she even gets close.

Her job is to make the other ADC useless. If fed, you can kill any squishy in melee form in about the same time as LB.

If you have trouble with her blind, just stand behind minions and farm and let your support engage for you.

If Quinn is behind it's kind of game over for her. Give the other carry first blood and she will suffer harder than any other carry if killed early.

If you want to counter, just pick any CC support, Leona Blitzcrank Thresh and cause of her small AA range you will almost always win fights.

I love how you go jump right in to say that I suck and I should learn how to play against an ADC while in mid lane that is more meta in mid lane than bot lane. Not to mention the fact that she has a gapcloser slow harrier-proc ability so it's not like Jinx is going anywhere. Caitlyn outranges everyone in the game so that's not a fair example. Jinx only outranges her at the cost of her mana that's vital early game. Also you make it sound like bot lane is a 1v2, if Quinn was even played bot lane. Quinn would have a support to help her if a fight started so she wouldn't exactly be threatened that much by cc supports.

Please inform me on where I call you trash?

Anyhow, I have played more than enough Quinn games to know her strengths and weaknesses. And I only used Jinx and Caitlyn as examples of people who hard counter her. Almost every ADC has a 50 range advantage on her.

Keep in mind that the farther Quinn is from the target she uses Harrier on, the closer she ends up. So, you become prone to face much more damage. It is not a gap closer, but more so a way to proc your passive.

And saying ''well she has a support so she isn't affected by other supports'' is a pretty bad argument in itself.

Jinx also counters Quinn because she can set her snare to where she will land, and she has the range on Zap to harass

Caitlyn can also trade just as well with her passive and Q and net if she decides to harrier.

Mid lane, her Q is useless and she gets destroyed by all long range mages like Ziggs, Xerath, Azir, and hard CC, like Annie, Brand and Ahri, simply because she can't trade as well as them.

However, she hard counters melee AP champions due to the fact that she can create distance and harass much more effectively, so champions like Fizz and Akali simply get destroyed by her.

Oh and just saying, Quinn bot is more popular than Quinn mid.

There's a reason why you don't see many bad quinns. When you do bad with quinn, you feel like the most useless thing on the planet. Only people who really, really want to be great with a mediocre champion stick with it. Most people just go "fuck it" and use Jinx instead. And I honestly can't blame them.

Also, Harrier isn't random. It has a specific and predictable set of rules that actually makes it pretty easy to manipulate. Really good for crit fishing.
