Quinn's damage is mostly physical (90%): armor is the best defensive answer against this champion. 10% of that damage is true damage and therefore ignores resistances.

Combos and how to play

Quinn is a marksman-assassin who fights alongside Valor, her eagle: Harrier periodically marks enemies, and her first attack on a marked target deals bonus damage. Blinding Assault limits vision, Vault knocks her back after an impact, and Behind Enemy Lines makes her fly at high speed with Valor.

Behind Enemy Lines makes you and Valor fly at high speed; ending the ability launches Skystrike, which damages nearby enemies and marks champions with Harrier.

Common mistakes

• Forgetting the Harrier mark.
• Using Vault without planning where you will end up.
• Casting the ultimate while placing yourself in the middle of the enemies.

Riot's official tips for playing Quinn

• Attacking a
• Vulnerable
• target marked by Valor will put Harrier on cooldown. Quickly consuming Harrier marks will allow you to generate them faster.
• Vault is powerful but must be used with caution, as enemies can attack Quinn when she strikes them. Vault can sometimes be used to cross terrain if your back is to a wall.
• Use Behind Enemy Lines for traveling very long distances quickly, for farming minions around the map, or for chasing wounded targets.
