Read from Quinn's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Neeko.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Quinn | You out-range a melee-Q Neeko and your Harrier auto-resets chunk her before she has waveclear or her root online. |
| Level 2 | Quinn | Your W steroid plus Q blind let you stack trades she can't answer, and her E root is easy to sidestep at this range. |
| Level 3 | Quinn | With Q-W-E up you control the wave and burst her on every Harrier proc while she's still farming at melee range. |
| Levels 4-5 | Quinn | You convert the lead into plates with your shove and attack speed, staying favored as she has no kill pressure yet. |
| Level 6 | Neeko | Neeko hits her spike: clone-disguised R into E root and Q poke is a real one-shot combo that flips the all-in to her. |
| First item | Even / skill | Your lethality/crit item spike trades evenly with her first AP item, so a clean dodge of her R decides the skirmish. |
| Two+ items | Quinn | You still win the side-lane 1v1 with E-Harrier burst, so split and roam with R rather than feeding her a fog pick. |
Levels 1-3 are yours outright. Neeko is melee-range to last-hit with Q before her clone, and your Harrier auto-resets plus your Q bird-blind let you walk up, chunk her, and back off before she can answer. Dodge her E root above all else, it's slow and skillshot-y, so sidestep it and she has no follow-up. Don't waste Vault chasing, just farm at range and auto her every time Harrier marks her Vulnerable.
