Look Riot trying to make Poppy appealing …(PBE)

Ronin Tamos·Aug 10, 2016·2 votes·561 views

Once more Riot is buffing one part of a Champions Kit, After nerfing the other part to hell and back to make them enjoyable. So yes it might work if you tune the numbers of her W to insane ammounts. Then everyone playing Poppy will gladly use it to stand around and watch the enemies poppying of the wall. But then again compared to a nice E into Wall followed by Q or even the good old passive AA reset W buffs pale in comparison. So go ahead buff W till she is once more broken and gets triple nerf hammered. Wont change the fact that +50 range on her E (and before someone starts bitching 50 not 100 pre nerf value) or giving her the passive AA reset back will always be better.

So remember remember the Poppy before 6.7 cause Riot will only buff W.

Bro these poppy buffs are barely buffs, and they are kind of an insult. 5 ms and a very small amount of armor and mr on her w. like 4-5 armor and mr......

I want Poppy to be an assassin again, not a fucking peel tank.

I miss going full ap and 1shotting people. but it all changed when the evil kindred team attacked. stripping her of the brave yordle diplomatic ambassador, so that kindred's ultimate could exist in the game without the risk of poppy's ult interfering

You do realize that her old ult was incredibly unhealthy for the game, right? It was a longer invincibility than Kayle and Taric's max level ults combined at her old ult's level 1, and went up from there. She could melt towers and wreck enemy teams with too much ease and too little retaliation in good hands.

Saying her ult was unhealthy is a joke, and meltingtowers... she could still be damaged during her ultimate, comparing it to kayle a champion who has range as well to a melee champion. and the fact she would have to suffer to farm early game. Also she's been in the game since forever. If she were as unhealthy broken she would of been abused to challenger, but the highest only got to masters.

HOLY SHIT I never even thought about that interaction! Do you really think thats why they gutted the entirety of her character? Is it because they didn't know how to code these interactions?

But STILL I would have been completely ok with a new ult, a new passive and a NEW E (as in i was OK losing the wall slam as long as we got to keep the Q, since it was never a reliable stun like and Old Taric e and it was Poppy's Q that made her kit). We know what really happened, Riot does EXACTLY what you dont want them to do, They focus of her wall slam INSTEAD OF HER Q TO THE DISMAY OF POPPY MAINS EVERYWHERE, then Turned her into a Tank!

They could have changed her whole kit as long as she KEPT HER Q in some kind of iteration and kept her Identity of a diving assassin. Riot does every single thing I didn't want them to do.

They change her personality, they change her Identity, and they completely changed her Play style while managing to keep the the ONE part of the kit I actually wanted CHANGED( and thats the Wall stun).

I understand that people liked the new Poppy but guys... NEW POPPY WAS COMPLETELY BROKEN THATS WHY PEOPLE LIKED HER KIT. WHERE ARE ALL THE POPPY PLAYERS NOW?

Did Riot ask a Poppy main anything before they created this rework?

It would of been pretty insane, poppy ult lasting 8 seconds and then kindred ulting to make sure she can't be killed. Best interaction was with shen :D I'd be jungling and then go to gank bot lane he ults in well i tower dive tanking turrets well he holds one down. Though ulting shaco was nice, because you wouldn't be able to ult his clone so your team would always know who the real one was from the fake. I really love the heroic charge. I actually have a funny interaction I uploaded between her and azir https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQ3cZGCKytw

Lol loved the Video. that Vi getting blown up cracked my shit up. Thanks for sharing.

glad you loved it. I eventually moved on to playing kennen support after her changes, but I've been playing it ever since. His roaming ability and stuns made it really addictive.

Karma feels Poppy's pain.

Her W is a stupid ability and should be changed inot something completEly different.

Nothing about it feels cool or worthwhile. Cool, you stopped yasuos first dash now watch him dash again. Or better yet he hits his knock up and takes his ult but your W doesn't interrupt it because it's not a dash.

Also her auto attack animation with that passive is horrible now. She felt a lot smoother before.

Right now I would consider her rework pretty much a failure.

If you want to play a tank to peel there is no reason to choose poppy over other options.

I miss the REAL poppy, fuck you morello and Poppy rework team. You guys OBVIOUSLY NEVER PLAYED THE REAL POPPY, thats why this garbage made it to live.
