Read from Darius's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Quinn.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Quinn | Level 1 Quinn's ranged Harrier poke and blind out-bully your melee walk-ups. |
| Level 2 | Quinn | Level 2 she keeps kiting with Blinding Assault and Vault beyond your reach. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | At 3 her Vault dashes off your E-pull, denying the all-in. |
| Levels 4-5 | Quinn | Levels 4-5 she pokes freely and you can't close the gap yet. |
| Level 6 | Darius | Level 6 Guillotine's true damage executes a caught, bled Quinn. |
| First item | Darius | First item Stridebreaker closes her kite; E-pull plus W slow ends the escape. |
| Two+ items | Darius | 2+ items she has no peel and no teamfight — you out-duel her in every side lane. |
Quinn hard-bullies you levels 1-5 — a ranged marksman with a nearsight and a dash, so she pokes with Harrier-marked autos and Vaults out of any pull. You cannot win this phase; farm what you can, take the poke, and stack the wave for level 6.

Darius takes Conqueror on the Precision tree with Triumph, Legend: Alacrity and Last Stand, and Resolve secondary (Second Wind and Bone Plating) vs Quinn.
Start Doran's Shield + Health Potion (vs her poke) and back for Tiamat / Phage + boots (≈1300g). Build Stridebreaker (the stickiness fix — run-downs become lethal) first, then Sterak's Gage / Dead Man's Plate, with Plated Steelcaps.
