I like Poppy's design

Direct Anti-mobility ability - I hope we see more of these in the future to make up for all the congested cancer this game has. It's not disruptor glimpse, but it's very effective and nice. Pretty sure with ghostcrawler working at Riot you can probably just throw in hunter binding shot in this game.

An ult that doesn't just deal "Tons of damage LC$bigplays buy this hero op!111". I like how in the spotlight it was actually advertised as a decision making mechanical ability that could make a 5v5 a 5v4 or 5v3. It can even backfire if you make a poor play, so its a very important decision to use this ability

Couldn't have said it better.

It was a weird transition, since I mained Poppy before her rework and she no longer has that carry potential she used to have, but her current kit still feels more in-depth and satisfying to play, especially when you get that ult timing right.

Or maybe I'm biased because I love mah little poopy! <3 <3 Poppy <3 <3

I like new poppy as well. I always found old poppy to be absolutely hilarious, but new Poppy feels like she rewards good play so much. You can go in on someone and turn on w to block them from jumping away, or you could jump on them and wait until they activate their jump before you activate it, so they can't just wait for it to end. You can use your ult to damage and knock up to reposition for a wall stun or for your w to come up, you can use it to slam enemies away from a turret they're defending or a baron they're taking. I've found myself in horrifying ganks and good w usage and the ult can get you out without a scratch.

I already have champion mastery 3 on her, and I absolutely love playing as her.
