Bronze/Silver Quinn mid/top freelo guide
This all started when I was playing Talon mid, expecting a Lux to come to lane when a Quinn showed up instead. 5 minutes later I was giving up first blood and feeding kill after kill to her, not being able to push beyond my river wall without her being able to jump on me and wreck me. I decided I needed to learn Quinn.
14 games later I officially decided Quinn is broken and overpowered (at least at my elo) and this is how you play her.
Run the same runes and masteries that you would for a caster ADC or an Assassin. Most importantly bring thunderlords for early trades.
Level 1 start with either a Dorans blade or a longsword for pot sustain and skill E for consistent and easy to land harass. Your combo at level 1 is AA-E-AA(harrier proc)(thunderlords) which will chunk them.
Level 2 take your Q and if they are chunked down you can either go all in or push them off the wave. The combo has to be AA-E-AA(harrier proc)-Q-AA(harrier proc) to get the most damage. It's not hard to land and should give you control. From there either freeze the lane and keep them from farm and experience or go for the kill.
Level 4-5 continue as usual but if they go aggressive be sure to pop w to check for the jungle
Level 6 now is your time to back as R will get you back to lane without missing much cs. Get a serrated dirk from the store and either boots, wards, or more longswords (you'll use them). From this point on just push, roam, gank, and get kills. Ganking is incredibly easy if other lanes are even close to even, even if they have it warded you will be moving fast enough to run them down.
So yeah from here its pretty simple, keep ganking other lanes, keep everything pushed, catch out their jungler by lighting up their jungle, and start putting a stranglehold on the map.
Oh items, I forgot about items. I always start either youmuus or hexdrinker into youmuus and swiftness boots. From there I either pick up damage or tankyness with a steraks or duskblade. Round out the build with whatever makes the most sense to you. Last whisperer for tanks, steraks against burst, bt for sustain, shiv or RFK for some as, and maw against mages.
So yeah, thats how I play Quinn in low elo and it seems to be working in both normals and ranked. Please dont give it a try or play it too much because it would be a pity for this to be banned or get hit with the nerf bat.

Post 6 you should be able to kill Quinn as Talon tbh.
But yeah, Quinn is really strong, I love playing her jungle for the massive presence post 6
