K'Sante vs Quinn

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

This is a control vs roam matchup where K'Sante must manage terrain angles to limit Quinn's ranged poke and roaming impact.
K'Sante should pressure Quinn enough to prevent free scaling and force her to respect his (Q) stacks and (W) displacement.

Trading pattern

Trade around full (Q) stacks and use (W) to interrupt Quinn's engage or disengage attempts with (E).
Avoid trading when (W) or (Q3) are down as Quinn can outpoke or disengage easily.
Use terrain to threaten (R) isolation only when confident in winning the duel, forcing Quinn to respect your displacement.

Danger windows

Quinn is most dangerous when (E) is available to disengage or punish K'Sante's engage; respect this window by holding (W) and (Q3).
After K'Sante uses (R), his durability drops; avoid extended fights until (W) and (Q) stacks reset.
Quinn's roam timing after wave crashes can leave K'Sante vulnerable; hard push wave and ping to minimize map pressure.

Early game

Use early waves to safely stack (Q) and look for short trades when (W) is available to absorb Quinn's poke.
Avoid extended trades without (Q3) or (W) as Quinn's ranged poke and (Q) blind punish melee approaches.
Keep the wave controlled near terrain to maximize (R) threat and reduce Quinn's roam windows.

Power spikes

At level 6, (R) unlocks K'Sante's ability to isolate and displace Quinn near terrain; use it only for favorable fights.
First tank item spike increases durability to absorb Quinn's burst and poke; trade aggressively around (Q) stacks and (W).
Respect Quinn's level 6 (R) roaming power by maintaining wave control and pinging her movements.

Win conditions

Win by controlling the lane with (Q) stacks and (W) displacement to deny Quinn's ranged poke and force her off farm.
Use (R) only when you can isolate Quinn near terrain for a winning duel or to peel for your team in fights.
Maintain wave control to limit Quinn's roam impact and reach mid-game teamfights where your frontline and peel shine.
