To be fair, the old ult was as well.

Arguably even more so, since she could waltz by towers too.

Hello? What is this? There's 5 of you guys? Okay, I'll just slaughter your carry and leave. No worries.

Actually that's the most surprising thing for me. I thought that, however much they want to keep from Poppy's original feel, her ultimate had to go. Completely. But even though it's a functionally entirely different skill now, I think it still fits this "fuck you, I don't care" feeling.

Yes, but this one has much more counterplay too it. It's much better designed

Poppy W and R make me think...

"Hey, Leblanc. I see you want to dive my ADC." "But what you really want? Is to back." "I'll help you out."

She's just flipping the middle finger to the League of Mobility and sending assassins out of the field.

Leona diving your team? Haha.

Support Poppy to stop Naut/Leona from doing anything engage-wise? :D

Diggy Hole DwarfNov 24, 20154 votes

Cool... Assassins are doing really well nowadays, so it should be fine to make a champion that counters them entirely. XD

RalanrNov 25, 20153 votes

I'm not complaining. I'm smiling so much that it hurts.

AnidanNov 25, 20151 votes

I won't because even though it sucks to play against a fed one, we shouldn't celebrate uselessness of anyone - that's just bad design.

RalanrNov 25, 20154 votes

Tell that to tanks who couldn't protect people from assassins. Really I'm just happy for something that counters Yasuo 's E spam.

AnidanNov 25, 20152 votes

Oh. I thought you just meant someone like Talon, who, when he goes in STAYS in and gets the kill and likely dies, or fails to get the kill... and likely dies.

Yasuo I usually don't regard as an assassin. He just doesn't feel like one to me. Anything that hard-counters that annoying CertainlyT monstrosity is fine in my books.

RalanrNov 25, 20153 votes

Ahh, sorry for that. I have nothing against Talon (he's a lot like Pantheon in how they can't escape from a fight gone wrong) just against annoyances like Yasuo LeeSin Zed etc. Mobile as hell annoyances that just rub me the wrong way when they dance around the battlefield.

I'm happy that she says, "Nope." to them. Very excited.

AnidanNov 25, 20153 votes

Oh, to them, hell yeah. I'm with you. An ultimate 'fuck you' to those 3 is freaking beautiful and brings a tear to my eye!

RozzetaNov 24, 201522 votes

No, her W is probably the biggest Fuck You.

LeeSin Ok, now Q to her and then escape to a nearly min... WTF?!

Poppy HAHAHAHAHA!

PartholonianNov 24, 20158 votes

Poppy Oh look, Kalista has called in her bounded soul.

Poppy I mean, it would be a shame...

Poppy if someone...

Poppy knocked them both faaaaaaaar away.

Drive By MaxNov 24, 201513 votes

I'm curious as to how far the range actually is.

SpecterVonBarenNov 24, 201531 votes

I Rioter on reddit said it has a range from mid lane blue turret to just inside mid lane red turret agro range. So about 14 Teemo's I think.

alasarcherNov 24, 201512 votes

I will miss old ulti, when you ulti poor Jinx or Kogmaw and just proceed to sodomize them while their entire team waste all their abilities doing nothing :(

shaiithNov 24, 20152 votes

Wait, am i wrong or did stuns work on the old ulti?

Only from champion u ultid. If you ultid some champion without any form of CC like Corki for example, there was no force in universe that could stop you.

alfavhunterNov 24, 20158 votes

New way for junglers to recall to buy

Gank poppy, she will send you back to base

I can see the hilarity of ekko tho

Gets punted

He ults back

"I'm bbbbaaaacccckkkk!"

charcharmunroNov 25, 20158 votes

I like how all the female Yordles have "FUCK YOU" buttons for ults now.

ChaosThiefNov 24, 20156 votes

200/300/400 (+90% bonus AD) on a 140/120/100 second cooldown. You can also knock away minion waves, and if you're feeling trolly, jungle monsters (excluding dragon/baron)

I feel like orianna ulting targets into one spot then poppy ulting them all away would be the most evil thing. You can wombo combo them, and if it somehow fails, they're too far away to do anything.

softest boyNov 25, 20151 votes

WAIT... IT CAN KNOCK BACK DRAGON/BARON?

ChaosThiefNov 25, 20158 votes

Excluding means it can't knock them back.

That would be hilarious if it could.

ZLbSwAR23INov 24, 20155 votes

Opponent is in the very middle of your lane.

Flash behind them.

Ult them back into your turret aggro range.

Charge into them when they try to escape to again knock them back into turret aggro range.

Laugh.

It looks like they always fly towards their base.

ModKnightsKemplarNov 24, 201517 votes

That's what the tooltip says. It's useful for getting rid of people in a big fight. It is NOT a huge knockback.

What you are talking about is the reason. That would be crazy OP.

LankPantsNov 24, 20152 votes

If you don't charge it it acts kind of like a Bard ult for enemies only though, since an uncharged ult knocks straight up.

ModKnightsKemplarNov 25, 20156 votes

... I think Riot's description of it is more accurate. Bard's ult isn't a knock-up. It's like Ali's Q.

What Love Tentacle said....The knockback is only ONE direction no matter where you are...and they get knocked back to THEIR base. It's so dumb. worst ult change Ive seen so far.

RozzetaNov 24, 201524 votes

Entirely team fight and objective control oriented. Enemy wants to take dragon? Back to base. Baron? Back to base. A tough frontline defending a squishy carry? Back to base.

Also, it seems that charging up increases distance rather than damage, so quick would be like a Malph's ulti.

TransgressorNov 24, 201514 votes

Wanted to play a game of League of Legends? Back to base.

Poppy Hey Yi, do you want to 1 vs 1 that guy? Just Alpha to him, I got you covered.

Teemo or FeedmoNov 24, 20154 votes

no,the biggest fuck you on the game is picking Annie against Yasuo

ps: the fuck you is to yasuo

ZioviNov 24, 20157 votes

btw, i guess poppy's new W will prevent yasuo to dash while she's close? if yes, then picking poppy will be a big fuck you to yasuo as well

Secret BallerNov 24, 20153 votes

It already is... Nice windwall Yas! Too bad it doesn't stop PEOPLE FROM COMING THROUGH IT! (Incoming massive blunt force head trauma)

IronwallJacksonNov 24, 20152 votes

Actually, Winwall might stop her ult since it blocks anything that the game deems is projectile, ie, "is an ability or autoattack that moves from one point to another." The damn thing blocks Braum's ult, Rumble's ult, and a slew of other abilities that don't look like projectiles, but are coded as such.

Also, I think Poppy's new W only stops one dash? If that's the case, then champions like Akali, Ahri, and Yasuo who have multiple dashes might be largely undisturbed by it.

RalanrNov 25, 20152 votes

I thought it prevented dashes in the vicinity of the aura?

IronwallJacksonNov 25, 20151 votes

Yeah, but as far as I can tell, it deactivates after one dash is used within that aura.

RalanrNov 25, 20151 votes

I hope that's not the case. I want a "no dash zone" ability.
