Favour timeline — who owns each window

StageFavouredWhy
Level 1QuinnHer Harrier passive procs on the first auto and her Q-poke is free damage you cannot answer — farm at Q range and do not step up to charge anything.
Level 2QuinnShe has Vault online and you are still charging slowly in the open — every commit is a free Vault knockback that resets her Harrier speed burst.
Level 3QuinnYour W-shield is active but Quinn can still Vault any commit and blind your follow-up — she controls every engagement entirely.
Levels 4-5QuinnHer Harrier kite speed keeps her permanently outside your charge range; she only enters when Vault is ready to bail her out.
Level 6QuinnHer ultimate lets her roam and punish your immobility on the map — she can leave, fight elsewhere, and return before you accomplish anything.
First itemQuinnShe completes Kraken Slayer or Galeforce and her kite pattern becomes near-perfect — your HP stack is not yet online to absorb it.
Two+ itemsSionHeartsteel plus a second tank item puts you past the burst threshold she needs — your zombie passive wins any engage she takes, and E armor-shred punishes the fight she is forced into.

Early game (levels 1–5)

Quinn owns this stretch entirely. Her Harrier passive gives her a speed burst on every auto, letting her poke and backpedal before your Q charge completes. Do not attempt a charged Q in the open — she reads the telegraph, presses Vault, and you eat a knockback into a blind while she repositions with fresh Harrier stacks. Farm with the tip of your Q, W-shield her trades and detonate the shield for chip damage back, and accept that your only objective here is zero deaths and maximum HP passive stacks from last-hits.
