Guide to Synergizing Quinn and Katarina

Tips for Playing as Quinn with Katarina

Attacking a

Vulnerable

target marked by Valor will put Harrier on cooldown. Quickly consuming Harrier marks will allow you to generate them faster.

Use Behind Enemy Lines for traveling very long distances quickly, for farming minions around the map, or for chasing wounded targets.

Vault is powerful but must be used with caution, as enemies can attack Quinn when she strikes them. Vault can sometimes be used to cross terrain if your back is to a wall.

Advice to Understand How Katarina Will Play

Picking up Daggers will significantly reduce Shunpo's cooldown.

Try waiting until the other team is distracted with fighting your team, and use Shunpo to teleport into the fray and unleash a devastating Death Lotus.

Using Shunpo on an allied Champion, Dagger, or minion can be a great escape tactic.

This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Katarina.
