Fly Swiftly, Feed Swiftly—Challenger I Guide to Quinn & Taxi
Welcome to Challenger.
Here you will find everything you'll ever need to know about League's premiere taxi driver, Quinn. Follow my guide word-for-word, and you'll be Challenger in no time—satisfaction guaranteed.
Abilities
http://i.imgur.com/0oCTmD4.png" Passive - "Road Rage": Taxi marks a nearby enemy, urging Quinn to run them over.
- Editor's Notes: Your primary source of damage. If Taxi says go, you go. No exceptions.

- Editor's Notes: This ability is, for the most part, inconsequential. Its damage is laughable, collides with minions, and you'll always be in melee range anyway, so the nearsight is useless. Max last.

W - "Dude, Where's My Car?": Quinn desperately mashes the panic button on her car keys, clueless as to where she parked that damn bird taxi. (Oh, there it is.)
- Editor's Notes: Use this spell whenever available. Alternatively, spam it in the face of inevitable death. Don't worry, it'll save you.

- Editor's Notes: Need to harass in lane? T-Bag 'em. Enemy chasing you down? T-Bag 'em. Hungry for that Ashe in the backline? T-Bag 'em! The trick to playing Quinn is knowing when to play safe and when to go balls-to-the-wall. The answer to that age-old question is that there's never a situation in which you shouldn't be going balls-to-the-wall. T-Bagging enemies at every possible moment will ensure your opponents know who the alpha driver is in town. Max second.

R - "Taxi, to Me!": Quinn channels for what feels like an eternity as the piercing cry of an eagle The Magic School Bus rents the air. She then gains ludicrous amounts of movement speed — unless someone sneezes your way, in which case you're screwed.
- Editor's Notes: "Taxi, to Me!" is Quinn's bread-and-butter ability. Not only does it serve as an excellent tool for cross-map mobility, it's also great for flashy, mechanical outplays in the middle of team fights. "Taxi, to Me!" is the ultimate realization of Quinn's falconer fantasy and should always be maxed first (your mana bar will thank you for it later).
Match-ups
-- An easy match-up, Quinn stomps Pantheon all throughout the laning phase with her low cooldowns and insignificant mana costs.
-- An even match-up that is decided by Beatrice's relationship with Valor Taxi.
-- Nidalee is perhaps one of Quinn's most difficult match-ups, struggling from the start of laning into late game. The reasoning is simple: cats eat birds.
