AD Poppy vs AP Poppy

[quote=Dotter]I have played Poppy as both AD and AP, and personally I prefer AD. But then again I have seen AP Poppys dominate games completely. Is the one better than the other, or do they just have different qualities? Like tons of burst on AP against quite some burst and more persisent damage on AD? What do you prefer and why? And how do you build AP Poppy?[/quote]

[quote=Wintermond]Its the same with AP and AD Eve. Take AD if you want more predictable and persistent damage and AP if you want to Zomfgburst like a boss. Tho AD deals always more damage the longer the Fight goes. I prefer AD for myself because I can predict the damage better and stick on my opponents like glue, hammering them into the ground, I like this paystyle more that's all. But since I am an occasional Poppy player I build after a Solomid Guide.[/quote]

[quote=Dotter]That's also my preferred playstyle, I just think AD Poppy is more vulnerable to CC, since AP Poppy only need to land one combo to do sick damage, while AD Poppy needs more time, but therefore also deals more damage, since it is more persistent.[/quote]

[quote=Slowjack]I love Poppy... and usually build her AP. Crash, Smash. Done. Sure you'll auto attack, but the bigger the crash and smash, the faster your opponent has to decide how they're going to react. If they're still alive, chances are the only thing on their mind is trying to run the hell away. Then again, Triforce pretty much covers everything. After that I look at what resists my opponents have, and build accordingly. However, most carries don't build resists until very late, in which case... Crash! Smash![/quote]

[quote=Jvstm]I build Poppy off tank with Trinity. ATMOG'S, Trinity, Swiftness boots, Aegis, Frozen Hammer[/quote]

[quote=Dotter]Jvstm: I've also tried that, though I find it funnier to go with: [[Boots of Swiftness]] [[Trinity Force]] [[Phantom Dance]] [[The Black Cleaver]] [[Youmuu's Ghostblade]] [[Banshee's Veil]] Not necessarily in that order. Just often some of those item (Always TrinForce.)[/quote]

[quote=Jvstm]If I wanted to play a squishy AD I'd play Master Yi.[/quote]

[quote=Dotter]I do sometimes get a [[Frozen Mallet]] though. I just like to have tons of damage, since you have 8 seconds of "almost" imortality when lvl 16. I do however, also often get Mercury's Treads, when I play more seriously.[/quote]

[quote=Searz]Not the same as AD/AP eve. Eve is simply better with AP. I don't know about poppy though. Building durability on Poppy seems stupid. She's incredibly naturally tanky because of her passive.[/quote]

[quote=Slowjack][quote=Searz] Building durability on Poppy seems stupid. She's incredibly naturally tanky because of her passive. [/quote] Try it one day, you might be pleasantly surprised. Then again, it depends on your team comp and their team comp... but after Triforce, going tanky can be a great idea.[/quote]
