Yone vs Quinn Counter Pick

Quinn is one of the few ranged champions who wins against a melee top laner by trading blows instead of backing off, and the Yone matchup bears that out: across 262 games on patch 16.13.1, she wins only 41.6% of them.

Blinding Assault is the main reason. Much of Yone’s damage comes from auto attacks, because Way of the Hunter converts every second one into magic damage and Mortal Steel scales with attack tempo. An ability that tags him and reduces his vision disrupts that tempo directly. Harrier then tags enemies with Valor and adds bonus physical damage to her first attack on them. It recharges often enough that she can poke almost constantly from 525 range, while he has only 175.

Her durability is weaker, with 565 base health to his 620 and 28 armor to his 33, though by level 18 she reaches 2,384 health against his 2,405. That ought to encourage Yone to go all-in, but Vault dashes her onto a target, slows it, and leaves her standing behind it. Heightened Senses also gives her attack speed and movement speed after she hits a marked enemy. Yone needs to land Fate Sealed or commit to Soul Unbound cleanly, and both demand a lot of investment. Difficulty ratings of 8 for Yone and 5 for Quinn show that the harder champion to play is the one falling behind.
