Playing as Quinn
Tips to maximize your impact
- Vault off the melee charging you
Cast Vault (E) on the melee champion charging you: you leap back after the hit, and your target is slowed and marked by Harrier (passive).
- Auto every marked target
Auto every target marked by Harrier (passive): your first auto on them deals bonus damage, and Heightened Senses (W) then gives you speed.
- Trade from range against melee
Against a melee champion, trade from range: Blinding Assault (Q) marks them with Harrier and reduces their vision before your empowered auto.
- Roam with your R
Roam with Behind Enemy Lines (R): after a 2-second channel, you gain a lot of speed, and an auto or a spell ends the flight with an area attack.
Playing against Tryndamere
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
- Don't trade when his Fury is high
Avoid taking a trade when his Fury is high: with Battle Fury (passive), it raises his critical strike chance, and Bloodlust (Q) turns it into healing.
- Harass him while he farms
Hit him when he walks up to minions to farm: each last hit gives him Fury, which Bloodlust (Q) then turns into healing.
- Don't turn your back on him
Against Mocking Shout (W), back off sideways rather than turning your back on him: the spell only slows enemies who are facing away from him.
- Respect his level 6
Once he hits level 6, plan for what comes after Undying Rage (R): he can't die during the effect, so back off or hold any CC you have, and finish him when it ends.
