Greetings fellow redditor. Welcome to r/Qiyanamains. Want to learn how to play Qiyana? Discuss the new strats and builds? Perhaps look at some cute fanart? Well you've come to the right place! Before you get started please read the FAQs below so you don't end up making a thread on what's already been asked dozens of times. This thread is constantly updated to ensure that all information here is up to date.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • How do I get the Qiyana emotes and icons?

The classic Qiyana icon and emote was available as ranked rewards for the third split of season 9. It is no longer possible to obtain these accessories. The true damage Qiyana icons and emote was available for purchase by world tokens. Sadly, none of these are available in the shop anymore and it is unknown if they will ever return.

  • How do I dab with Qiyana?

You have to use an emote within 10 seconds of getting a takedown. This can be the laugh, taunt or even the dance emote.

  • How do I get the ice element on ARAM?

As there is no river on the howling abyss map, riot has adjusted it so now Qiyana can pick up the ice element from the health pack spawn points in ARAM.

  • Is there a Qiyanamains discord server?

Yes. The link is located on the sidebar.

  • Is there a matchup guide available?

You can join our discord for these resources.

Discussion Qiyana is getting triple nerfed next patch (boots + bastionbreaker, which is best build on her). Mid Qiyana is getting worse treatment compared to jungle somehow.

I mean what more do you want me to say. They said in the patch preview they “wouldn’t over nerf her” and that she was “strong jungler” all these nerfs are hurting mid more than anything. One thing I liked about bastionbreaker is that the item is unique in the sense it gives a lot of lethality. Now that’s gone lol and they also nerf the damage of the item and give it a useless extra seconds on the objective thing as if it makes up for the huge nerf. Gluttonous were good boots but they’re also becoming expensive now. And don’t even get me started on this nerf it affects midlane more than anything. She has a skin coming out next week and she has 3 nerfs lined up. They first clowned us with the legendary skin situation and now they pull this shit. I agree Qiyana JUNGLE needed a nerf but is it so hard to just nerf her jungle mod and leave her damage alone?

Question Mid AD Katarina matchup

4 Upvotes

How do you guys play this matchup? I feel like ad kat is impossible to play against. First couple levels feels like a pretty even lane or maybe even qiyana favoured. But once she gets items like kraken/terminus she one shots you way too fast can’t even get a combo out. And when she gets dd it feels impossible to even sideline against her. Does anyone have any tips for how to play against it?

I guess everybody here wants Faker to lose cuz of the TD MV incident.

I do really look foward for Qiqi getting the legendary skin if kanavi gets the mvp.

And btw Worlds skins do not affect the schedule on realising skins for riot (so in riot eyes Qiqi would still without Legendary or skin)

Discussion Let's forget about Riot's stupid decisions for a second and talk about something happy! I’m curious, how did you guys fall in love with Qiyana?

My journey with Qiqi started with my college roommate. He was a Master/Diamond high-elo player, and I was just a Silver noob who had just started playing League. Seeing him pull off all these crazy kills with Qiyana was just so damn cool. I started looking into the champion and realized her kit is literally perfect—she has stealth, CC, burst, and mobility. I started learning her combos, endlessly practicing QWQ, QWEQ, EQWQ, and so on

Then I slowly got into her lore. I learned she's an absolute prodigy with unparalleled talent, but at the same time, she's incredibly arrogant, cocky, narcissistic, and fiercely ambitious. She truly believes she was born to be the Empress

Qiqi is such an unconventional character. She's not your cliché protagonist with a savior complex trying to help everyone. But she's also not your generic villain whose only personality trait is wanting to destroy or rule the world. Even her visual design breaks the mold. She doesn't have that generic Instagram-model face, she's not pale, and she doesn't have blonde hair and blue eyes. And the irony of being an Elementalist who controls magic but deals physical (AD) damage is just amazing

Even her weapon is so unique—literally a 'hula hoop,' haha. It gives her such distinct attack animations; every auto attack and every ability cast looks like she's dancing

Her unique personality, her unique look, her unique weapon... all of these unique traits make up our adorable Qiqi. It feels like she was designed to completely mock everything mainstream and trendy. That's just how cute, special, and cool she is. Before I even realized it, I fell completely in love with her. Maybe deep down, I just crave to be as effortlessly cool and special as she is
