Poppy Support goes Bang!
''Poppy support, really?'' you think I guess, is this even possible? Well, for me, yes it is and it's pretty strong. All of your abilities can help your ADC to survive and get kills.
As Poppy is a tanky character with a high CC kit, it is a pretty good character to play on support. Your E (
) stuns, your Q (
) slows and your R (
) gets your enemies airborne.
Now, let's see how you can 'protect' your ADC, tank your team and control your enemies with your abilities.
First, we shall get through our abilities, eh?

Q - Hammer Shock
W - Steadfast Presence
E - Heroic Charge
Ulti (R) - Keeper's Verdict

Basics of the Banger
Now, let's take a look on how you can protect your ADC.
If you ever played Poppy, you know that your combo is pretty basic.
Here:

You want to pull that out while your ADC can attack the enemy or you can do that to scare and push the enemies back.
Protecting your ally:
Case #1

In this case, you want Q (
) your opponent and activate your W (
).
Why?
Your Q (
) slows down your enemy and deals damage while W (
) does not let the enemy to dash towards your ally.
Case #2

In this case, you want to pull out your basic combo (without R [
] ), if there is no wall to stun your enemy, engage with E and Q (
) then get out with W (
).
Why?
You combo will scare the enemy away if you pull it, because it is a very powerful combo, dealing a lot of damage and stunning your opponent. The little no-wall engage is to keep your enemy away.

Teamfights and Your Ulti
Your ulti, a two-option ability, you can either knock enemies up or you can remove them from the current place/fight.
How to correctly use your ulti then?
Depending on the current situation, you have to choose. If there is a teamfight and there is a Yasuo on your team, you can combo with him with your no charged (not channeled) ulti with his ulti (
).
Or if there is a teamfight and their most fed/valuable player is separate from them, you can channel ulti him to remove him/her from the teamfight for easier wins.

Conclusion
Poppy is a tank top lane but can be played as a support too! High CC and easy sustains are making it easy for you and your team.
C'ya, have a good time and stay safe :)
