How to beat Poppy

Common role: Top / Support

An anti-mobility tank who stops dashes and hammers you into a wall to stun.

What makes Poppy dangerous

Poppy shuts down dashes with her W (a hard counter to mobile divers and assassins), knocks you into walls with her E to stun, and her ultimate can banish a whole group out of a fight. She's a durable peel tank that protects her carries and denies engage comps.

How to play against Poppy

• 1Don't dash into her W — it stops the dash and knocks you down. Engage without a dash, or bait her W first.
• 2Her E only stuns if it knocks you into a wall — fight in open areas to reduce it to a slow.
• 3Respect her ultimate — it can knock your whole engage out of the fight. Don't group tightly when she can zone or peel with it.
• 4She has low damage on her own — kite her and burst her carries. She's there to peel, not to carry.

Weaknesses to exploit

• ✓Low personal damage — she's a peel tank.
• ✓E only stuns near walls — open ground denies it.
• ✓Punishes dashes, so engage without one.
• ✓Kiteable with no gap-closer of her own.

Abilities & how to counter them

What each of Poppy's abilities does — and how to play around it.

• P
  강철의 외교관

  뽀삐가 던진 방패가 대상을 맞히고 튕겨나갑니다. 뽀삐는 방패를 다시 주워 일시적인 보호막 효과를 얻을 수 있습니다.

• Q
  망치 강타

  뽀삐가 망치를 휘둘러 피해를 입히고 적의 움직임을 느리게 만드는 지대를 생성합니다. 지대는 잠시 후 폭발합니다.

• W
  굳건한 태세

  기본 지속 효과로 뽀삐가 추가 방어력과 마법 저항력을 얻습니다. 뽀삐의 체력이 낮아지면 이 효과가 더 커집니다. 사용 시에는 뽀삐의 이동 속도가 증가하며 주변에서 돌진하는 적을 막습니다. 뽀삐에게 막힌 적은 느려지고 이동 스킬을 사용할 수 없습니다.

  Strong: stops dashes and knocks down the dasher — a hard counter to divers. Weak: engage without a dash, or bait her W first.

• E
  용감한 돌진

  뽀삐가 돌진해 대상을 밀어냅니다. 대상이 지형에 부딪힐 경우 기절합니다.

  Strong: hammers you into a wall for a stun. Weak: it only stuns near terrain — fight in the open to reduce it to a slow.

• R
  수호자의 심판

  뽀삐가 잠시 정신을 집중한 뒤 망치를 휘둘러 피해를 입히고 적을 굉장히 멀리 날려버립니다.

  Strong: can knock an entire engage out of the fight. Weak: don't group tightly when it's up — she needs you clustered to zone or peel with it.

Itemization

Poppy is a peel tank. Don't rely on dashes to engage (her W stops them), fight away from walls to avoid her E stun, and % health/magic damage beats her tankiness. Kite her and kill her carries.
