Poppy Strengths

  • Skill 2 stops dashes and counters forced engages
  • Long stun when a Skill 3 wall-slam lands

Poppy Weaknesses

  • ×CC is weak without a wall to pin enemies against
  • ×Ult is hard to time; a mistake can let a dying enemy escape

Early Game

Pick up the passive buckler for the shield and take favorable trades. When an enemy drifts near a wall, land a Skill 3 wall-slam right away for heavy damage.

Mid Game

Use Skill 2 to stop enemy dashes and protect allies in skirmishes. Narrow jungle paths are good spots for wall-slams. Look to force fights there.

Late Game

Keep enemy split-pushers in check while moving with your team as the main tank. Knock the enemy frontline far away with Ult. Creating a numbers advantage is your main job.

Teamfights

Peel for your carries against enemy engagers and assassins. Stop anyone dashing in with Skill 2. Then follow up with counter damage.

⚠️ Common Mistakes

Firing Ult instantly and letting enemies escape

Fully charging your Lv5 Ult (Keeper's Verdict) on an enemy one hit from death and sending them to safety is a big loss. A quick tap knocks them up in place, but a charged cast knocks them toward their base. In teamfights, use it to remove the enemy's tank and create a 5v4.

Poppy Combos

Wall Stun Combo

Slam them into a wall with Skill 3, then land the maximum damage of Skill 1.
