Who Wins
- You struggle early against Poppy's mobility and wall slams, losing most short trades to her Q-auto-E burst pattern.
- Post-6 you gain significant kill pressure with R setup into W-E combos, as your Brittle procs and sustained damage pattern outscales her burst in extended fights.
How to Trade
- Use Q to zone and farm safely, then look for W-E combos when she steps up, ensuring you apply Brittle before the knockup for maximum damage.
- Bait out her W with fake E engages, then commit to your full combo once her spell shield is down.
Wave Control
- Focus on safe farming with Q until you can match her push, then use your superior waveclear to create roam timings or force her under tower.
- Avoid early slow pushes as she can freeze and zone you from CS with wall threat.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste E charges into her W spell shield, as this leaves you without your primary engage tool and vulnerable to her counter-engage.
- Never fight extended trades early game without Brittle setup, as her burst damage will chunk you before your sustained damage kicks in.
