Yeah, no. One of the most well designed champions in the game with great niche.

"well designed"

Sure hard countering half of the champ roster for pressing 1 ability that also does something even if you're playing against someone without mobility, high %hp damage while building full tank GREAT DESIGN here boys.

Something has to counter mobility.

Too bad shes good vs immobile champs too (even better actually), her W gives her armor mr and movespeed regardless if you're completely denying whole champs kits or not.

But hey its great to watch 70 minute world games where poppy presses W every time someone tries to make a play and then nothing happens, very engaging gameplay.

K. But her W doesn't hurt immobile champions as much as it does mobile champions.

"Well designed". Any champion that's oppressive upon their release and then gets nerfed into non-viability is NOT balanced.

Because Riot never accidentally overnerfs champions?

Of course they do, but if a champion has to go through that upon their release, they're generally not a very well designed champion.

AbyssphereOct 31, 20162 votes

Based on what? A champion being overnerfed just means they were a little bit strong at one point and Riot messed up the numbers when balancing them. The only thing Poppy being nerfed in the past indicates is that they made her numbers too high upon initial release.

An ADC main wanting a tank to be nerfed. Seems legit, gotta follow it*[slayer-jinx-unamused]*

Imo they should disable all the meta champions, the standard 25 that only worlds use.

Then see who the real League of Legends pro players are.

Adapting in critical situations far outweighs playing the same champion in 2,000 games.

Get okay at the game.

If Faker thinks Poppy is overpowered, that just means Faker is shit.

Facts are facts.

How about we nerf Cait out of playability instead?

She's even more boring. Punishes you for making the correct decisions. Nerf that shit.

They need to revert the fucking rework. I can't stand Poppy now, whether I'm playing against her, or playing with her.

A champion with mostly delayed attacks or situational damage and CC needing nerfed...Q is delayed and easy to just walk out of, W only blocks dashes 1 time and only applies to "dashes" and E's stun can be avoided by just staying away from walls. Poppy is not a problem and I'm actually happy when I go top lane against her, at least then I know I won't have to worry about the ranged champions and I can actually just farm and not get harassed every time I leave my tower.
