Ryze vs Quinn

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Ryze must manage a controlled lane state to safely farm and scale against Quinn's ranged poke and roam threat.
Avoid giving Quinn free wave crashes or roam windows by maintaining wave control and tracking her (R) cooldown.
This is a scaling control matchup where Ryze aims to survive early poke and leverage waveclear and map movement later.

Trading pattern

Use (E) to spread marks and follow up with (Q) for poke, holding (W) to root Quinn if she commits or tries to engage.
Avoid stepping into Quinn's auto-attack and (Q) blind range without (W) ready to prevent being out-traded.
Punish Quinn when her (E) is down by stepping forward to land (W) root and extended spell rotations.

Danger windows

Quinn is most dangerous when her (E) is available to disengage or reposition, making trades risky.
Be cautious when Quinn has full mana and her (Q) blind is off cooldown, as she can outpoke and deny trades.
Quinn's level 6 (R) roam window can leave you vulnerable; hard push waves to punish or safely take plates when she leaves.

Early game

Focus on safe farming and avoid extended trades before your first mana/AP item to minimize Quinn's early poke advantage.
Use (E) and (Q) for short trades only when mana allows and (E) is on cooldown to reduce her disengage threat.
Track (E) cooldown to find windows to apply (W) root and punish her forward positioning.

Power spikes

After your first mana/AP item, pressure Quinn more confidently with repeated (E) and (Q) rotations while managing mana.
At level 6, use (R) to create map plays or defensive resets, but avoid forcing all-ins without jungle support.
Respect Quinn's level 6 (R) roam potential and avoid overextending to prevent losing lane tempo or jungle pressure.

Win conditions

Survive early poke and scale by controlling waves and farming safely until your first mana/AP item.
Use (W) root to punish Quinn's engages after her (E) is down and convert wave control into side-lane pressure or map plays with (R).
Track Quinn's roam timings and respond with your own map movements to deny her tempo and secure objectives.
