Stronger Toplaner than Quinn. Ban Everytime. With Kraken she is oneshotting. Thanks God you are not playing blind pick, right?
Fiora
Annoying and Annoying. Riot nerfed her a bit by deleting active passive from Tiamat, but she still can push well without it.
Teemo
Blocks your autoattacks with his Q only...
Not big Threat but still annoying.
Remember about going all-ins when he has his Q out
Kennen
Quite annoying, be careful when he is using E to get closer to you, because he will ult in 100%
Take Phase Rush, nothing else needed to know
Sett
He can take all of your damage with is W, so dont lethality because it will be waste of gold. Take PTA to deal more damage.Be smart and build Serpent Fang to delete his W. Build Kraken as well.
Jayce
Annoying and better because he will rush Eclipse and Phase Rush. Be smart and take double healing from runes and try to not get killed on ganks.
Darius
Strong guy, go Phase Rush and try to play around his Q and E. He will totally beat you if he plays well. When he finish his mythic, you must know that he can rundown u from 100 to 0.
Lucian
Kraken, PTA and his Passive... I think if you play slowly on lane, he won't beat you.
Gnar
If you have problem about playing vs Gnar, remember few things: he has awful ccs so always have finger on E. Take cleanse if u want to survive his R on gank.
Lulu
Big damage and slow, but after tactic called Moonstaff they nerfed few supp items, so she is not as powerful as before.
Jax
You can escape from his E+Q by your E. When he hit lvl 6, try to not make long fights versus him. ATM some Jaxs are building , so be smart and wait for his E, not PC + E.
Renekton
If you hear and see that he is using W, try to not fight, and when he is using E, you have like 0,5 -1s to use ur E to slow him and go away.
La Coste is destroyable, but you always lose all-ins. Call your jungler and always ignite first :)
Irelia
You can escape from her E by ur E, but she has strong all- ins. Try to not give her free mark for resets on Q. She can easly kill you at lvl 1 so remember that and take Q for blind or W for movement speed, your choice.
Rumble
New two masks are powerful, but he still is so rare. He is more viable on mid for roaming with Predator than on top with comet. I think you can kill him easly, just do not get hitted by his E.
Aatrox
He is so powerful with his sustain and healing with Goredrinker. Try to escape from his W with ur E and poke him as well.
EDIT: Items are so nerfed, but he still heals for full hp. Try building Exe first and build Tabi, his Q animations are faster than your E, so better to play around it.
Kayle
Beat her before lvl 8 and first item, end before lvl 16. He has good poke on lvl 6 and healing from Omnivamp combo (Items, runes).
Garen
X D Spin2Win champs for kids without hands. he can be 0/10 and still big damage. Always cast E on
him when he has Q already.
Cho'Gath
If he goes AP, go Phase Rush to get slow resistance, if tank, don't let him scale! His E is annoying and it deals big damage, so I recommend Hexdrinker and PTA, OF COURSE IF HE GOES TANK!
Kled
when he is using E+Q, use your E, he can dodge you damage by jumping from Skaarl when having low hp. I think you should rush some resists instead of healing, because of course he has 60% Grievous Wounds on Q.
Urgot
if you know that he will ult, use Q first to make him blind and go to left or right to dodge R.
When he is using E, use ur E, your animations are faster. His items are nerfed by nature (he is ranged), by items nerfs (Goredrinker) and by his bad effect scaling on W (50% XD).
Akali
Just run away when she has R2 and u have less than 50% Hp.
Now she can build Omnivamp and heal for every AA, Q, R and even from Ignite.
EDIT: She has been nerfed soooooo hard so she is even good matchup for you. Dodge E and you are winning.
Illaoi
So rare; build Exe and do not get hitted by her E and passive. If you prefer playing safe, take Phase Rush and you are winning 75% fights with her.
Udyr
Bear style is annoying, but he is so rare on top after Phoenix nerfs. I prefer building Hexdrinker and Lord Dominic to destroy him ASAP.
Dr. Mundo
Go PTA and Exe first. He has strong damage, but now he is jungler, not laner (like Taliyah or Karthus). If you want, you can wait for ganks and win lane by it, but you can kill him solo too.
Gangplank
Easy, he will only poke with Q with Grasp. They nerfed a lot of his items so he is weak now imo. His strong pros are Healing from W, Q with Grasp and Divine Sunderer. Destroy his Kegs and you are in home.
Karma
All her power is healing with R+W combo, but now with that mana problems, you won't get destroyed. Maybe she will build Moonstone and Staff of Floating Water, but I dont think that she will be more powerfull with it VS you.
Soraka
Silence is annoying, slow from Q too, and she will also heal herself from Q. If you want, you can rush Exe, but it is useless because she is nerfed as duck on top.
Skarner
45% CDR build is dead now. He is not getting any benefits because his pillars don't have buffing zone.
Kalista
Still viable on top, but rare, so let me call this matchup as easy. Just rush Sanguine blade to counter her with lifesteal.
Malphite
I think Malphite is one of the best AD champs counter. If you see that he plays comet, build Merc and Hexdrinker, no matter that he goes tank or AP.
Maokai
Tank with cool damage, but now he changed his role into Support, so I will call this matchup as tiny. If you meet him on topside, try to avoid getting hitted by his E from bushes, and always cast E when you see him casting W. It is tricky but still make-able
Mordekaiser
Go PTA and rush QSS, this big metal boy is strong, but still good matchup. I always win on lane. You will too.
Nasus
Boom 3 stacks, Boom 3 stacks, Boom 3 stacks, Boom 3 stacks,Boom 3 stacks Boommmmmmmmmm 12 STACKS. Just destroy him in early, u are more powerful than him, if he gets back with Sheen, dont fight with him. Build Boots of Speed to make him less slowing you and go Phase Rush to chase him or do not get chased by him.
Rengar
He will jump a lot and deal big damage. And of course he has annoying all-taken-damage - Heal on W. Rush Exe and try to not play near bush and ur minions AND ALWAYS WARD RIVER!
Riven
A lot of Dashes, go Phase Rush if you want to be still useful on lane. All what you need is playing safe after 6, because she can oneshots you. Remember about her big cooldowns in early game.
Shen
His W is so annoying, and he has good gap closer - E. Remember that you shouldn't give you free poke from passive, because he will get extra damage on Q+slow on it+ bonus attack speed when attacking.
Singed
He has good Damage Over Time on Q, but you need to be near him. Only one thing can kill you - his E under his own turret. I always play Phase Rush because he can get from 400ms into 700 in teamfights or on ganks.
Sion
After few changes in balance history, he is not big counter. I recommend playing around his E because any slows are killing Quinn, that's normal.
Maybe take Nimbus cloak from runes and Celerity instead of Absolute Focus.
Ornn
TBH he has nice damage into other tanks, but bad sustain. You have to make him spamming Q+E to get him out of mana.
Poppy
Her W blocks ur E. Suprising big damage as a tank. her W has bigger cooldown than ur E so you can easly poke her and she wont be able to block as much E as u use ur E.
Tryndamere
Buy three RB and go PTA. This guy can easly kill you are lvl 1/ 2. All what you want is to play safe and wait for ganks. Remember about his sustain too, so dont let him stack fury to heal more.
Vladimir
Rush Exe, DONT get hitted on his R or you are dead. Remember that has weak pre-6 so he will CS and he will poke only will Extra Q.
Camille
Remember that now she will play Grasp and Divine Sunderer, which means that she can oneshot now with her Q and heal for 5% of HP, even like for 8% with W. Ban her if you don't want to end with 0/10.
Viego
Huge dmg and fast stacking Conqueror. Rush Exe if u want to live.
Ryze
so rare, but still good on toplane (scaling better than on mid). He will poke you with E+Q and oneshot after 11. My personal tips are rushing hexdrinker and building Maw as first item.
Cassiopeia
This serpent has annoying CC on W and AOE stun and she outscaling u.
Try to kill her in early. She is weaker before lvl 8.
Lulu
Not gonna lie that Lulu is one of the best synergies for Quinn. I love having her on support or on mid
Quinn is range top with more than 1 build style. She can go lethality, crit or mixed.
Her pros are:
-Range
-Hard CC on Q
-Nice E
- Nice bird
- Nice Ult for roams
- Huge dmg in early and in midgame
- Faster back from base by ult
Her cons:
- Range top can be flamed by team
- Not Thicc enough
When lethality? When Crit?
Lethality is good VS Squishy picks or if you want to have fun from deleting enemy ADC by one passive's AA
Crit is good when you have tanks in enemy team or bruisers.
How to win lane?
If you want to win lane when playing Quinn, you need to follow these steps:
1. Always use E when you see that enemy will use his CC or/and dash like Jax Q+E or Renekton E+W+E. Remember that you have big damage so try to attack enemy as much as possible. Simple combo is E + Autoattack + Q + Autoattack. With it you can take enemy's 50% of Hp well.
2. If you think that you can kill enemy and you are above lvl 6, use your ult to get bonus passive mark on enemy. Use R, AA, E, AA, Q, AA and finish with Ignite.
3. Your main powerspike is Berserk Greaves and Sanguine Blade. If you buy it, you will be killing machine.
4. Your cons on lane are: Cooldown on passive, cooldown on E and cooldown on W.
But why cooldown on W is so big con? Because without W you can't check area near to to see that there is enemy jungler or there isn't.
5. When you hit lvl 6, you can try to invade enemy jungler in his own "forest".
6. You can jump over wall with your E, so remember about this when you are getting chased and you are near groump or wolfs.
How to deal vs strong matchups?
Answer is simple. Farm under turret, try to freeze when he/she went back/teleported to bot and try to call your jungler. Making herald and using it on top when there are plates on turrets is good way too.
Always you can try to swap with mid or roam into other lanes to take kills and snowball harder and more than enemy top.
What NOT to DO?
1. DON'T take Relentless Hunter
2. DON'T buy Mobility Boots. You have bonus movement speed from ult, moron.
3. DON'T take Quinn's W on invade. It will only make enemy escape because they'll know that Quinn's team is there.
4. DON'T ward in bushes near your lane. Better ward indeep.
5. DON'T try to fight when enemy is much better (I mean he has more kills and items) than you.
6. DON'T forget about control wards, they are a must.
7. DON'T dive or all in without vision in area near you.
