Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior range and sustain, as your Q outranges Poppy's engage tools and your E-omnivamp keeps you healthy in trades.
- Post-6 you maintain the advantage since your R provides massive combat stats while Poppy's R is primarily utility-focused for 1v1s.
How to Trade
- Look for Q1 poke when Poppy goes for CS, then immediately E away to avoid her W-E combo retaliation.
- If she commits with E, you can turn with full Q combo since she has no escape once her dash is used.
Wave Control
- Push early levels to establish range advantage and force Poppy to CS under tower where she's vulnerable to Q poke.
- Maintain a slow push or freeze near your side to create long lanes where your superior range and kiting potential shine.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Never fight in tight spaces near walls where Poppy's E becomes guaranteed, and don't waste E aggressively when her W is available.
- Her W can interrupt your E dash and leave you vulnerable to her full combo in melee range.
