Just played a game VS a poppy, she went full tank build

Poppy did the most damage doing 37k and also took the most damage with 25k physical and 8k magic damage totaling 33k damage taken.

Nobody could kill her, she also did more damage 1v1. Has a shield, an E that doesn't allow you to dash or hop which is like 99% of the champions AND just in case you are close to killing her she has a disengaging ult.

As a really, REALLY invested Poppy main I can probably ease your woes a bit. Most likely most of her damage came from her matchup top lane. If she's against someone durable but with little kill pressure, the lane turns into a slap fight for 20 minutes. This really adds up when you consider she's spending that entire time trading with her Q. Also could explain how she tanked so much damage.

Also, not to insult you, but you are playing at Iron I. At that elo absolutely any champion can run away with a tremendous lead. At that level it's less about champ mechanics and stats and more about gold and xp difference. You can unironically get 3-4 items up on people at that elo, which is usually the cause of massive stomps like this.

Mind showing us the game?

None of the tracking sites I used show you playing a game in the last 4 days.

Also, no offence, but an unkillable Poppy in Iron is nothing unheard of.

Would you mind providing a link to said game? I can't find it anywhere, even on third-party sites like OPGG or Blitz. Would love to see this Poppy for myself because this sounds like a major case of "nobody buys item 3071 item 3035 item 3153 item 3033 item 3036 item 3135 item 3165 item 3151 while constantly staying near walls and letting Poppy do whatever she wants unpunished".

Poppy is only as strong as you let her be without itemizing against her. While it might be a nice idea to stick to a rigid build path that's pretty safe, sometimes champions like Poppy Sion exist and you need to consider tank-buster items much earlier than usual. (Note: Blade of the Ruined King on its own with no armor pen is not much of a tank-buster item.)

Why are you entitled to a Rioter explaining how Poppy's balanced when you're the person hyper feeding?
Maybe bring actual dps if you want to kill a tank on 3 armor items? That or don't feed lane as Aatrox playing into a tank. I know you're not the marksman in question to bring the dps, but, if that's the case, you shouldn't have fed so hard.

Poppy's not a problem. You getting dunked on is.

Yeah you just said her E denies dashes.

Shitpost detected.

Also, "full tank" build my ass. 3 of those items do damage.

And I bet her 1st item was iceborn. BTW what was your team's carries doing? Not buying pene I guess. xD
