Thanks again.
There's been much debate about Trinity vs Iceborn.
Donald and I have been theory crafting over the past few months concerning the addition of iceborn to the game and the effects it has had upon poppy's playstyle.
She loses part of her burst, this is true. But the advantages that it has over Trinity Force is simply amazing, plus If you ever have laned against a hard AD solo top, with sufficent poke and burst. ie.
Lifesteal, yes she needs that, hence why I've noted pretty much everywhere to build a Vampiric scepter on her before your main sustained damage items ie.
You sound like a good
a) who your up against - mainly tanky ad casters/sustained
b) Your burst is still sufficient to instagib their carry
c) Your useless before the 30 minute mark building Trinity.
--> P.s Thanks for raising the point, I've decided to rework my guide back into how it was before, just adding iceborn as an alternative rather than a main item. It was how I was planning to present it but it obviously didnt quite come across like that :D
Iceborn vs Trinity
Trintiy have better damage, when Poppy build Iceborn, she loses some burst(I realized that).
And she needs some type of lifesteal for dueling capabilities.
Still, it could be bad. Look at what he did to Karma. However, Trundle and Sejuani worked out fine, so I think it'll probably be good.
Spelling issues/improper item or champion input I noticed:
Health Crystal - Ruby Crystal
Gangplanks - [codimijiger]Gangplank[codimijiger]s
Phsycic Scream - Feral Scream
****py (what i assume to be p-o-o-p-p-y) - p-o-o-p-y
Maw of Malmoritus - Maw of Malmortius (switch i and t)
Mercury Tread's - Mercury's Treads
Dr Mundo - Dr. Mundo
Zhyona's Hourglass - Zhonyas Hourglass
Phantom Dancers - [codimijiger]Phantom Dancer[codimijiger]s
Seal of Armor - Greater Seal of Armor
Beserker's Greaves - Berserker's Greaves (forgot an r)
Bugger - Booger (Buggers are enemys in Ender's Game).
PS: you seriously need a REAL sig.
Content: 9/10
Your build seems viable enough (although I can't really say for
Appearance: 7/10
Looks good! I really like your banners.
The Bad
All you really have that's wrong is a few bb coding errors, like when you're calling on items and other champions. Fix those up and rework your cheat sheet and you'll have a solid guide.
The Good
Cute banners, great bb coding, pictures, and fantastic knowledge of your champion. Keep it up!
Final Grade: 8/10 and a +1 from me.
1. Minimal structure in cheatsheet, try to change the build orders to something like "Starting items 1# -> Starting items 2# -> First recall -> Core -> Optional -> Example Build", this will help the reader a lot.
2. "not unlike", remove the "not" and the "un" :P
3. I saw AS glyphs in your build, you didn't explain why you should take them (put it in the guide)
4. "Elisa's Miracle" coding errors. I found more of these, try to fix them.
5. Try to finish your jungle part of your guide asap, since it's better to upload the whole section at once a bit later, then uploading it part by part.
Thy blessing
1. Comment to vote
2. Can't say too much about Poppy, but overal seems like a decent build.
3. All basics included
4. Decent use of coding + structure
5. Lots and lots of content
6. Bonus: Matchups section
Result: Path of the Successor
It's a good guide :P
I found some minor coding errors here and there, no big deal.
Some big deals though:
You will need some structure in your cheatsheet to help with granting overview to what you want to build. Right now, it looks a bit chaotic.
Also don't forget to put in the jungle part asap, since it would be sad if someone came in special for jungle Poppy, and still misses some necessary information to play jungle Poppy well.
Those were my main points ;P
Have fun :D
(Do not forget to vote! :D)
Great Work!!
