Vladimir vs Quinn

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Vladimir must manage a low-pressure early lane focused on surviving Quinn's ranged poke and scaling safely.
Prioritize sustaining with (Q) and avoid giving Quinn free poke windows to prevent losing tempo.
This is a scale vs snowball matchup; Vladimir aims to reach mid-late game teamfight power while respecting Quinn's early lane dominance.

Trading pattern

Trade short bursts around empowered (Q) windows to maximize healing and damage.
Save (W) to negate (Q) blind damage or her (E) engage attempts, avoiding its costly use on minor trades.
Punish Quinn when (E) is down by stepping forward for empowered (Q) trades, as her escape is limited then.

Danger windows

Be cautious when (W) is on cooldown, as Vladimir is vulnerable to Quinn's ranged poke and engage.
Avoid extended trades when empowered (Q) is unavailable, as Quinn can punish your lower threat.
Track (E) cooldown closely; if down, she can be punished but if up, she can disengage or counter-engage effectively.

Early game

Use (Q) to sustain through Quinn's ranged harassment and avoid extended trades before empowered (Q) is ready.
Avoid pushing waves early to limit Quinn's roam potential and maintain safer farm.
Respect (E) disengage and (Q) blind by not committing to trades without (W) available for defense.

Power spikes

At level 6, use (R) to threaten all-ins or teamfight flanks, tracking its cooldown to engage safely.
After first completed AP item, pressure waves and trades more confidently while still respecting (E).
Respect Quinn's level 6 (R) roam power by hard pushing waves and avoiding overextension.

Win conditions

Survive early lane by using (Q) sustain and avoiding forced (W) usage to reach key AP item spikes.
Use empowered (Q) and (R) windows to win short trades and create pick opportunities in grouped fights.
Scale into mid-late game teamfights where Vladimir's burst and sustain outmatch Quinn's early snowball pressure.
