Read from Quinn's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Aurora.
This is Quinn's own plan; across 281 pooled games the lane is Quinn-favoured.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Quinn | You own Level 1 — your range and Harrier auto-resets let you walk her down before she has a single spell to answer. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Once her Q poke comes online it evens out — trade with your blind up but respect that she ignores it on her Q. |
| Level 3 | Aurora | With Q-W-E up she can E-blink your Vault and the slow, then root and Q-poke you from outside your reach. |
| Levels 4-5 | Aurora | She converts levels 4-5 into safe poke — her E blink resets escapes faster than your lethality lets you punish. |
| Level 6 | Aurora | At 6 Across the Veil hides her and Between Worlds slows the whole area — she picks the fight and you cannot leave. |
| First item | Aurora | Her first AP item plus Q-root chunks your squishy frame faster than your lethality spike can kill her. |
| Two+ items | Even / skill | It evens back out but only because you fall off into a pick-threat — avoid the 1v1, flank with R and blind her carry instead. |
Level 1 is yours outright — your range plus Harrier auto-resets let you walk up and chunk her before she has a spell, so leash and immediately contest the wave. The instant Twofold Hex is online she starts to even it out, so don't sit at her max range farming for free. The key trap is Across the Veil: she holds that 22s leap to get out of your Vault, so if she has already spent it you get a free Harrier-marked all-in, and if she still has it expect her to leap out and re-poke. Blind her autos, but the blind does nothing to Twofold Hex or The Weirding.
