Quinn Win Condition

Using yourQuinn EE to cancel hisJax QQ (Leap Strike) in mid-air every time he tries to engage.

Jax Win Condition

Landing Jax EE (Counter Strike) stun, typically using Flash to guarantee the stun after you E him back.

General Strategy

Run Press the Attack. Build cooldown reduction items (like Essence Reaver/Navori Quickblades) to get more Quinn EE usage against hisJax QQ spam. Jax almost always starts E. The only way Jax can counter your E is by flashing immediately after you knock him back, securing the stun.

Trading Patterns

Level 1: Play aggressive. Auto him while hisJax EE is charging (Harrier won't be consumed but refreshes). When Quinn EE ends, proc Harrier and go for a PTA trade.

Level 2+: Only use Quinn EE to counter hisJax QQ dash. If you successfully E-cancel his Q, immediately re-engage for a 4-5 second PTA trade. After the trade, back out of his Q range completely until your E is back up.

Wave Management

N/A (Focus on ability interaction and cooldowns).
