Guide to Countering Quinn as Malphite

Tips for Playing as Malphite against Quinn

Despite his abilities scaling on Armor, some games require Malphite to get Magic Resist. When those games occur, try getting Aegis of the Legion, Mercury's Treads, and Guardian Angel.

Armor naturally reduces the rate that attacks go through Granite Shield, so Brutal Strikes will strengthen the shield against physical damage.

Advice to Win Against Quinn

After being marked, move away from Quinn so she can't take advantage of it.

Keep tabs on Quinn's position. Behind Enemy Lines can enable Valor to cross the map very quickly and attack you by surprise.

When Quinn is using Behind Enemy Lines, damaging her removes her Move Speed bonus temporarily.
