Early Game
Poppy is extremely strong early game with her Q Hammer Shock and passive Iron Ambassador combined with Grasp of the Undying. Most people will underestimate her and not keep track of her passive Iron Ambassador coming up.
Her basic trade pattern is to poke at max Q Hammer Shock range which procs Scorch keeping your Grasp of the Undying active then throw passive at them.
You want to keep in minion aggro or auto minions before passive comes off CD so you have Grasp of the Undying ready as soon as it's ready. If you need to stall more time use Q Hammer Shock on the wave to extend grasp.
Make sure you at least get Tear first back but try to get bami also. Then use bami to keep grasp up in minions to make your passive poke more punishing.
Only all in with E Heroic Charge when they are low or miss step by a wall.
In some matchups you need to save E Heroic Charge to use on a minion to escape certain spell such as Olaf Undertow.
(you don't need to focus as much on CS, getting grasp poke is more important if possible)

Mid Game
As poppy you want to look to start fights with your jungler. Make sure to contest grubs or red/blue buff.
Poppy is extremely strong at disrupting and is very annoying to deal with as the enemy.
When plates fall make sure you are actively grouping for every dragon and doing your best to peel your ADC. It's almost always best to Teleport back to lane from dragon than to dragon, the team needs you to clear space and be a threat.

Late Game
Late game on Poppy is all about grouping and finding picks. Any stun into a wall with E Heroic Charge and you can lock them up with R Keeper's Verdict + W Steadfast Presence then slow them with Q Hammer Shock and team will be able to follow up.
In teamfights you want to front to back and peel your carry. Stay beside them until the enemies use all their engage.
*Sometimes you can engage if you find a great flash E Heroic Charge stun on the enemy carry but it's rare, don't be looking to flank very often.

Tips + Tricks
When using Poppy E Heroic Charge she will try to auto that target so make sure to click elsewhere while using E Heroic Charge as a gap closer to hit passive on another target.
You can use recall to cancel Poppy's R Keeper's Verdict charge up and reset the CD.
Use W Steadfast Presence into instant R Keeper's Verdict to hide the initial animation of the R Keeper's Verdict charge up allowing you to get to knock back charge without them being able to react.
When you have a Sheen item make sure to Q Hammer Shock or W Steadfast Presence while your passive auto Iron Ambassador is in air so Sheen will proc. This is especially good with Iceborn Gauntlet to allow Poppy to slow enemies and have a bigger impact at range/when chasing.
Tank Poppy is very low econ and is good at 2 items anyways, 3rd is a luxury in a lot of games so make sure to give farm to your carries. On the other hand if you fall behind you will always be useful, keep good mental and group/play fights smart!
