Read from Master Yi's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Quinn.
This is Master Yi's own plan; across 112 pooled games the lane is leaning Master Yi.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Quinn | Quinn's Blinding Assault (Q) blind plus Vault (E) knockback dominate level 1. |
| Level 2 | Quinn | Her Q blind and kite keep you off her through level 2. |
| Level 3 | Quinn | She still controls spacing at level 3 with Vault (E) and poke. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 hinge on dodging her Q blind and Vault timing. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 is even because her R is a roam, not a duel, tool. |
| First item | Master Yi | Your first item plus Highlander (R) lets you finally stick and kill the squishy Quinn. |
| Two+ items | Master Yi | With R resets and item power you delete Quinn and her team late. |
Quinn wins levels 1-3 outright: her Blinding Assault (Q) chunks you and disables your auto-attacks, and Vault (E) knocks you back so you can never stick. Hug the wave, take Alpha Strike (Q) trades only when her Q is on cooldown, and do not facecheck a blind.
