Quinn is not a bot lane Marksman. This is the sad truth. She is really strong top, though. Graves is perfectly fine in a kill lane and then roaming around with his support. MF and Ashe only work in really specific teamcomps. Those are wombo-combo AoE teamcomps and protect the carry teamcomps.

The problem Varus has is that he is Caitlyn with CC and a focus on late game. So if you are going for a poke/siege teamcomp, you might as well pick Cait to ensure your early game dominance and for the ability to somewhat selfpeel.

He is still prefectly fine, just make sure what team you are picking him for. He does nothing for teams that don't want to siege and prefer to dive. He also requires a support that is good at peeling (Braum, Janna, Lulu...) to be played properly against any sort of diving champion.

I believe comparing him to Kog is a mistake. Kog is a late game Tristana that does better than her vs tanky champions and somewhat okay everywhere else, just gated by his cooldowns. Sure, you can poke as kog, but if your midlane wants/needs blue, say goodbye to any sort of poking with Kog unless you want to be useless in teamfights.
