I've just been fooling around with Poppy today and I have been seriously liking her.

Just want opinions on why you think Poppy is as bad as everyone says. I've been running tanky AD with her in top lane. (triforce,FH,mercs etc etc) The results have just seemed really strong to me.

Also her passive is applied before your resistances are calculated so you get double reduction, it makes you ******ed tanky.

The reason people hate Poppy is that she has arguably the worst early game in existence.

If/when she gets to late game, she rocks house.
True love is found only in yourself.

I guess she's just one of those win or lose champions.

People do not approve of inconsistency. (Please don't argument upon this with match histories of amazing wins against nubz who don't know how to handle her. Besides; an early feed is almost sure to give you a quite brilliant score in the end)

Her lane phase is pretty much **** I agree. She is pretty solid at last hitting under a tower though. I was always just playing super passive in lane unless I just had an opportunity that was too good to pass up for some harass/a gank.

I play well against these who don't notice people missing in lanes
I do so against people who don't ward consistently.


Fixed that for you, no problem.

Poppy you have to play as a bushwacker or else she will get nothing done. Upon early game, she lives and dies off of her stun if you smash someone against the wall, doing this consistently along with help from your neighborhood jungle will allow easy ganks and more money for Poppy to snowball into late game with. If you're good with her stun and can catch people out of position, you're good.

Its the primary objective of roaming... unless your just deliberately playing dumb. The jungler and wards are more then fit to control objectives.
