Thanks for the positive feedback, I went ahead and added Infinity Edge into option section. It is indeed an excellent item. I just prefer the active of Gunblade and also the lifesteal. However, due to the recent nerf to Gunblade it is making Infinity Edge more and more tempting to get over Gunblade.

This is a great poppy guide. ive seen many guides with pure AD yes they have crazy damage but gunblade and GA is a must. Gunblade gives ridiculous spell vamp on your Q and an extra slow to catch up to your enemies. The GA helps with a second life and being harder to kill.

Out of all the poppy guides I have tried i found this one to be the best! Great work! +1

Very nice build, but on AD poppy you should try infinity edge, it's incredible seriously, you're devasting blow can do about 2.5-2.6k dmg in one hit with it :)

The calcul is simple : 8% of target's life(max 375) + around 100 for base dmg skill, + 150 for ad ratio + 250 from ad base dmg(it becomes 625 with crit). This makes 1250. 1250 * 150% dmg because of trinity force = 1875. If you have your target marked, it gives you a +40% bonus dmg = 2625 dmg. So this means, one devastating blow can do about 2.6k with a very low cooldown :) Try it, it's very funny when you drop 3/4 of someones life in one hit ;)

After infinity you can get whatever you need to stay alive since you do beast dmg anyway

Question: If I choose to go with the AD Poppy, what item should I get after the Hextech? I do NOT want anything defensive as that's not important on an anti carry - especially not poppy whose job is to kill one carry and maybe die in the process.

Yep, I fixed it up. ^^

Decent, but could use a lot more survivability. After triforce + hextech you should be going pure survivability. In fact, you should probably get some survivability inbetween triforce and hextech frankly. Also your AP build lacks survivability.

Not gonna -1 yet I'll wait for you to get back to me.

Yep, everything scales into magic damage which is why I get magic pen with Poppy. Its just much more easier to say AD Poppy even though its still magic damage.

you have to read "in game" actually, how Db work

i find strange, to say "Ad poppy", maybe hybrid, since Db turns all the damage (Autoatack+sheen+crtical+8%+100) in magic damage, im doing 1800 of magic critical damage, without diplomatic inmunity, if you mix infinity edge, trinity force, phanton, you get a 70% of critical chance = 70% of your Db doing critical (yes the critical is magic damage also). So if you go with Ad poppy, actually you are doing a lot more of magic damage with Db, than Ap Poppy (plus you do a lot of damage with aoutoatack). if you dont believe me read how Db work carefully.
i have probed this.
