Quinn Passive Ability

Champion Build Guide

Hello, welcome to my guide. My name is QuinnAD, and I am a Grandmaster player on the North American Server with over 4 million mastery points on her. My Peak Rank is about 390, and in Season 9 I held two Grandmaster Accounts at the same time. One was 435 LP, and one was 350LP simultaneously.

Here is a link to all of my Socials/Guides!

I also held accounts for Rank #1, 2, and 3 NA on league of Graphs all at the same time, and in Season 9 I hit Rank #1 World on Lolskill.net. Down below are all me. On the left are my 3 accounts NA, and on the right is the site showing me being Rank #1 WORLD

A little information about my is that I play her very different from most players. In this guide, I recommend 4 different keystones: against poke match-ups like and , against tanks like and , AND also against HP stackers like and .

If you are unsure which match-up I recommend each keystone, I have it ALL layed out in this Complete Toplane Matchup Guide.

is the most versatile champion in the game with build diversity & Role diversity can play Top, JG, Mid, & ADC all *viably* ). Quinn Also can run the MOST keystones viably out of every single champion in the entire game. You can play with freeze playstyle to kite bruisers, to counter champions with slows, against poke matchups, or against squishy champions, against sustain matchups, or for champions who like extended fights, if you want to 4fun it in normals, and for tanks. Each keystone involves a different playstyle, which makes her fun to play and learn

is fun to learn, play, and master because you are going to tilt the living HELL out of your enemies #CancerRangedTopFTW. She is a champ who can CARRY games. has a strong Early Game, Mid Game, and Late Game. can also run ignite every game to win lane easier, which gives you an edge since most enemies need to run . can also play ANY role your team needs: the role of an AD Carry, Assassin DPS, split pusher, etc.

She is arguably the best 1v1 champ in the game due to her versatility. Yes, ANY champion. For example, Against Duel champs like , , , Quinn can out duel these champions by running to perma slow them and make them useless. Even FoggedFTW2 admits in his matchup guide, after vsing my multiple times that cannot beat this build, and he recommends for players to group with team because he cannot win the 1v1. Quinn can also beat scaling range champions like or or some champions who have incredible late games, because if you land your , you have 1.5 seconds to nuke them. Since your build scales as a crit build, 1.5 seconds is all you need to kill the enemy.

She has no losing matchups 1v1 pre 6 (very few hard matchups early on, but no losing matchups levels 1-6). Also, is the fastest Champ in the game with : Very great champ to improve macro with. Her Ultimate that allows you to pressure the map like no other champion in the game

Lastly, She NEVER gets boring!! Never picked or banned either, perfect for one tricking :)

PASSIVE
ABILITY

Harrier (Passive): Quinn's passive is , which periodically marks a nearby visible enemy with a harrier mark. This mark will reveal the enemy for 4 seconds. If you hit an enemy with , , or , the target will also be marked with a mark as well.

This passive scales with critical strike chance. At level one, 's cooldown is 8 seconds, and at 100% crit, will mark enemy champions every 2.93 seconds. Quinn's passive will mark minions if there are no nearby enemy champions, but if there is an enemy champion nearby, your will mark the champion instead. The range of is supposed to be 525, which is the same as our auto-attack range, but valor seems to have a mind of her own, and your harrier will oftentimes mark champions a bit outside the 525 range.

If you NOT VISIBLE by enemy champions (AKA if you are in a , then Will ONLY MARK ENEMY CHAMPIONS! This means that, if you are hiding in a bush, your will not mark any nearby enemy minions, and if an enemy champion walks in your range, then your passive will mark that champion.

Blinding Assault (Q): Quinn's Q ability is . signals Valor to fly forward in a line, and if your hits an enemy champion or it will stop and deal physical damage to all nearby enemies. The PRIMARY target that hits will Nearsight them for 1.5 seconds.

Here are some mechanics you can do with 's

Using Q To BREAK ANKLES!

- In order to do this juke correctly, must use , and after the Q nearsight the target, DO NOT AUTO ATTACK THEM! The reason is because when you auto attack a champion when they are blinded with , the enemy champion will see you switch directions because they get vision of you for a slight second.

- To do the juke, walk in a certain direction, then after hits them, IMMEDIATELY switch directions, and then when the nearsight wears off, auto attack the champion to consume your harrier proc from to gain bonus movement speed from your passive

Using Q To CANCEL LOCK ON ABILITIES!

- How lock on abilities work is that, if a champion has a lock on ability (for example, 's , 's , etc. Doesn't have to only be ultimate abilities, it also applies to abilities such as 's as well. Essentially, ANY point-and-click ability in the game works where if the target leaves vision when the ability goes off, if the enemy is out of vision, the ability is cancelled and put on a very short cooldown. Since 's nearsights targets, we can take advantage of this by CANCELLING these point-and-click abilities with our Q. You must be out of their nearsight range for it to work of course, and if you time it correctly then you will cancel it. The animation goes off, but the damage on their ultimate ability will not. Be mindful though that it will put the ability on a short cooldown, so they can recast it very shortly!

Heightened Senses (Q): PASSIVE: Attacking a target marked with a mark will grant Quinn bonus Attack Speed and for 2 seconds. The Attack Speed bonus scales to 20/25/50/65/80% and the increases to 20/25.30/35/40% and based on how many points you have in .

ACTIVE: will signal Valor to reveal the area around her for 2 seconds. The range of active is 2100 Units

Vault (E): Quinn will dash towards her target, knock them back, deal physical damage to them, slow them by 50% that decays over 1.5 seconds, and then leap back 525 units away from the target (which is the same range as 's auto-attack range)

- First, let me make this clear that 's is programmed as both a DASH and a KNOCK UP. What this means, essentially, is that our can knock champions up, which synergizes with champions like 's . 's can interrupt any standard dash like 's , 's , and also follow blinks, such as 's and

- However, 's vault is programmed as a DASH too, which means that any ability with ANY FORM OF CC will cancel 's . Think of abilities like 's (lmfao it's legit in her Q name XD), 's , etc. The weird interactions are like 's . 's CAN CANCEL when is leaping towards the wall, but when dashes towards you away from the wall, will cancel . This is because towards the wall is programmed as a dash, but when leaps towards a champion away from the wall, this part of the ability has CC attached to it, and thus, will cancel .

- A fun part about 's is that it is a KNOCK BACK, which means that when hits an enemy champion, for a split second their body will flip directions to the other side. This means that, with practice and good timing, can make many champions use their skill shots backwards. Just to name a few, can make champions like use backwards, 's , 's , and my favourite, 's .

Using E To MAKE CHAMPIONS USE SKILLSHOTS BACKWARDS

- To do this, the timing must be perfect. You can re-enact this against champions like pretty consistently with practice because they tend to use as soon as you approach them, and by using right away, you typically pull this off. PROCEED WITH CAUTION

Using E To JUKE ABILITIES

- With this, when you learn the timing of certain enemy abilities, you can use to dodge certain abilities like 's . And yes, that is Solarbacca in the clip (rank 1 GP).

Using E To Insta Vault Flashes

Here, in this clip, you can see that if you time perfectly, then you can cancel a champion who uses on you. This is tough to re-enact and you have to get lucky most times, but essentially acts as the perfect disengage tools towards standard dash abilities and .

Behind Enemy Lines (R): channels for 2 seconds. When the channel is successful, Valor takes control, which increases your TOTAL , and the ability to cast .

If you take damage from ANY champion, monster, OR turrets, you remain in , but you lose the bonus movement speed from the ability for 3 seconds. If you don't receive any damage for 3 seconds, then you will regain the movement speed from

If you level up , now whenever you respawn or enter base, you will automatically be cast in . The increase scales to 70/100/130% TOTAL MOVEMENT SPEED depending on the amount of points has in .When hits an enemy champion, that champion will be marked with . This will stack up to however many champions are hit, so if you hit 3 champions with , then they will ALL receive a harrier mark.

My favourite thing to do with 's is, since you are insanely fast, I like to use it to bait out skillshots. For example, if I fly towards and I get close enough, then will most likely cast his trying to catch me. HOWEVER, since you are so fast in , you can easily side step this ability, and thus, baiting the skill shot to go on cooldown, which can help your team win the team fight since this crucial ability is down. You can do this against any champion like 's . Of course, only do this if you are comfortable and confident with your ability. If you mess up you will die, but with practice, this is worth learning!

Level 1

Early game on Quinn you want to be AGGRESSIVE. Level one, I recommend to wait in the top bush, and perform a cheese on the enemy. Essentially, Quinn's passive will mark minions if you are near them, but if you are hiding in a bush, your passive will ONLY MARK CHAMPIONS! Wait in this bush until the enemy walks close to farm the wave, and stand by the edge of the bush.

Here is a key part about laning phase. When your passive cooldown is coming up, walk towards the enemy champion when it is about to come off cooldown. By doing so, your will mark the enemy champion instead of a , which means that you will be able to trade against your opponent even better since your marked them instead of a . Do this all throughout laning phase whenever possible. The range is 525, which is the same as 's auto attack range

You are able to use aggressively level 1 because almost no champion levels up their gap closer level 1. Some rare cases champions like will level up or with . Be cautious of this, and if you are unsure and afraid, wait for them to use their ability first on the minions to see what ability they leveled up first.

Level 2

Level 2, level up . For basically every single matchup in the game after level 2 onwards, be cautious of your usage. Almost all match-ups will level up their gap closers, like 's . USE YOUR FOR REACTION ONLY LEVEL 2 ONWARDS! What I mean by this is, when the enemy uses their pull, like , that is the ONLY TIME you should use to push you AWAY from them after they pull you in. Level 1 you can aggressively because basically no champion levels up their gap-closer, but level 2 onwards they will likely have it, so be careful.

If they walk into range of you, your will mark them. If it does, then immediately auto attack them, them, and then auto attack one more time. This combo will proc two procs and two auto attacks along with damage. If you are running , then auto attack them one final time after your to proc your mark for even more damage.

Level 3

Level 3 you will have leveled up, which means the way you play the lane changes. Like I said before, when you have at least one point in , every proc will now grant you an ATTACK SPEED and MOVEMENT SPEED steroid for 2 seconds. So, when you auto attack a champion with a proc, you will want to use this DPS steroid to trade more after every auto to make the most out of our steroids.

Level 3 onwards, and this works best the more points you have in , I like to use my move speed to go in for engages, and also to juke skillshots. For example, if my enemy is playing back and I'm in kill potential since they are low on HP, I stand back a bit, and when my passive marks one of my s, I consume this proc on the minion, and instantly run towards the enemy champion with my enhanced from . This will catch your opponent off-guard since they underestimate your , and thus, will allow you to secure a kill on the target.

Level 6

Now that you have leveled, you can use ult to fly back to lane quicker. This means that if you are low, you can back and fly back to lane without worrying about losing too much CS.

I want to make this note that I recommend not to roam much early game on because you only gain 70% Total movement speed level 1 , which isn't as fast as you think. This means that if you roam bot, for example, and it doesn't work out, now you just lost multiple plates and a whole lot of CS top lane, which will set you SUPER far behind. Only roam when you have the perfect opportunity to. You can roam mid more often since it's close in proximity to top, but only roam bot when you have the perfect opportunity to do so!

I will soon add the matchups onto this mobafire guide with BB codes and images to make it easy to read and navigate, but for right now, just click on my matchup guide spreadsheet. I have all of the top lane matchups listed here with difficulty level, the keystone I recommend, the build I recommend, tips on how to win + interactions that will help, and also full-game matchup VODs and clips of interactions.

I will update this mobafire guide frequently, and right now I know I am missing a whole lot of information. As it stands, this mobafire is in the VERY EARLY works, and I plan to put in a whole lot of work until I find that I can provide all of the information that I know about on here. I started making this guide on March 16th, and I wanted to drop it along with my video guide on the 17th. I will update it a whole lot, and transfer over a lot of the information from that guide & my Ultimate Quinn Guide Spreadsheet onto here to make it easy to read and understand! :)
