I am going to call it now; Poppy will be just as unpicked 3 months after her update.

First they gutted Karma and made her bland AF. Now, they're making poppy a bland support/tank (minus that interesting ultimate). I am pretty positive that more people will be saved by Poppy's ult than negatively effected by it.

Get your poppy games in now while you can, folks.

Thoughts on poppy besides ZOMG DAT ULT?

i immediately dislike this rework based on the fact she is becoming a tank. I DON'T WANT A TANK. THAT'S NOT POPPY. Also E collision had a higher damage than the base before.

The face on the in game model doesn't fit the face in the splash arts. She doesn't have a pointed chin on the splash arts, which i typically regard as the proper portrayal of the character compared to the in game model.

Also, why does she have dragonish eyes in the splashes.

I like the homage to the old lollipoppy splash in the new one though, and the dance.

"Wow, that's a lot to hammer." ( ͠° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Signature is from Ninja_Trigger's champion mastery thread!
New and slightly improved version is still up to date >HERE!<

I think the ulti will be a good way to force opponents to concede neutral objectives. That said, she doesn't have a strong way to initiate, so the burden of initiating fights will fall onto the jungler, which will make her a very niche pick.

Her rework is intereting, but you're right. she'll still totally be unpicked
If I helped you out, be sure to throw me a +Rep!

Oh look, Poppy isn't the most bland looking and sounding champion anymore. Now she sounds exactly like Tristana and looks creepy. >.>

Wtf is that ult. Homerun?

She seems more objective oriented as opposed to "imma walk through 4 people and kill your ashe". I like that about her, but that's gone.

All they needed to do to poppy was make her Q and W more interesting. They made the W more interesting, but gimped her passive, Q, and arguably her ultimate.

i absolutely love her w and i think it has a lot of mechanical outplay potential (flashing to stop thresh lanterns / gap closers).

im just curious to see how the numbers will play out once it hits live.

i think she has potential. I'd rather see kits like this over something like illaoi that requires whole new research to be done on some new minigame added into league.

Overall she has potential, but I think she'll be very niche too. For a tank, im not sure she has enough disruption (it'll depend on the cd of her E and W), not to mention one of her best disruption abilities - W - will require some brain to play.

Q seems pretty meh, such a short range for a skillshot.
Thank you Tsuki for the sig!
