Merry Christmas my polish brother i hope you have a great christmas this year! I just wanted to ask if you're ever gonna update the guide again? A while ago you said you had a exam but you're probably already done with it. If you dont want it's alright im just asking because if you'd know how much i like this guide you'd be surprised XD. Anyways Happy Holidays and Happy New Year(Soon lol)!

Hello brother, I hope you have a Great Christmas as well! ;)
Yeah about that, I had an exam and it went really good and well after it I wanted to hit Master so I can be with builds on time. So... I tried my best but I didn't hit it. Kinda disappointing that I hit Chall previous split and now I can't even get out of Diamond. Now I don't even want to play League and if I do I don't win with my champs, meta changed and it is frustrating (but I love programming with Riot API, completely opposite lol). As of now I can't really provide anything since that can be outdated, my knowledge kinda disappeared or turned into some chess knowledge... I'm gonna take a break and clean my mind with programming, hopefully climb during Season Start, give myself 2-3 weeks and if I will hit anything that will satisfy me then and only then I can update the guide - I will have a winter break so perfect.

Once again Metry Christmas and Happy New Hear!

Is this guide gonna get updated soon? Its really good i loved using it in the previous patches but i dont think it still holds up.

Hi there. I'm sorry for not updating the guide. There was an important exam so I had to do a break. And right now I think I am not as good as I used to be before the break. That said I have to climb to also see major changes in gameplay and how to adapt to them. As soon as I will hit Master I will update the guide.

Under Quinn in the Major Threats list you suggest to buy Armor items but, assuming you use Fleet Footwork into ranged match ups, your Full Ad build doesn't offer much input into which armor items.

hi I really like your guide, and I've learned a lot about poppy from it. Can you please provide some clarity on your Standard and Full Ad builds?

Often, when I try to preform your Standard build I find notes you've written along the way that sort of contradict themselves. For example, some match ups listed recommend the Second Wind rune with Conqueror even though your Standard build uses Mana Flow Band. Are you suggesting to swap secondary runes? Furthermore, some other match ups recommend Conqueror/Grasp while building Divine but only your Full Ad build recommends to build Divine. Are you suggesting to run Standard build Runes with the Full Ad item set? If so, what items would you suggest for resistances in prolonged fights with Divine/Conqueror.

In most of your match up summaries it is recommend to use the Standard runes, however they also recommend Divine. I agree with almost all of the 'Major Threats' match ups suggesting to build sheen and fight after Divine, but I am struggling to find match ups where I ever utilize the Standard build item set since Jack Sho is a mythic as well.

Really good example I just experienced: Into illiao top you suggest conqueror and Divine. What do you build for resistances? Your conqueror rune page doesn't suggest ever building Divine. I won the lane, however after mid game i felt the enemy Caitlyn was harassing me too hard to think the Divine build was at all worth it.

Hello. Sorry for the late reply.

1. To be honest for me was just a safer laning phase and an opportunity to go AD build.
2. You're right, I messed up a little bit with all the tips and builds and I will fix it soon. I don't want it to be weird to read. Like you said my rune pages doesn't really contain all of recommended runes and I will look into it.
3. Last time in matchup I went with and went for , and . I agree, if you don't buy resistances you're kinda squishy to range targets.

I will look into all of it. Thanks for the information.

Could you update this guide? Its really good! I would love to see a lethality build for poppy xd

(9) |

Hi, thank you very much. About lethality build, I have to say that it's not worth it (at least for Top Lane). You lack resistances and you're so easy to get snowballed. Maybe if I find it a better option for some matchups I will include it.

Since I play with this conq runes and the conq items I play a lot better and I'm more confortable with those.
Thanks

I'm glad it helps ^-^

Is there a difference with sunderer and Triforce poppy? I wanna know your input on this cuz I'm trying out some poppy builds and also trying to main her.

(9) |

Yes, there is. The difference is that heals you while grants you mobility. is superior against tanks and bruisers and is excellent against kiting. also deals more damage to squishies, contrary to tanks because there shines.

Hello, Ravenous Hydra doesn't have omnivamp anymore and is lifesteal now. Guide still mentions the omnivamp.
Thanks

You're right. My bad there. Riot makes so many changes that I don't even notice sometimes :c

Hi!

What about grasp, shield bash, second wind, revitalize+ manaflow band and celerity with black cleaver rush and iceborn gauntlet into full tank with option to sterak as 5-6th item?

So much ability haste, strong laning phase and decent dmg while tanking.

Hi there!
I actually was going almost the same runes while going into . I didn't put it in the guide tho, I forgot about it but it was amazing (I will put it soon). It really does have a lot of ability haste and the damage from it is really great too. I adore this build but I'm not going it when one of my teammates is already going , for me it's kinda overkill then. But if versus multiple tanks then I will just go ahead 😎

Informative, interesting, good designed. Basically, one of the best guides I've ever seen.
