Quick easy counter to the poppy nerf on her Q

After ramming a target into the wall, auto attack one time, then slam them with your Q.

The auto attack with happen during the time duration that Riot's supposed buff tries to help you aim her Q, thus you can completely skip it without having to worry about your Q being aimed for you.

That is a good idea, but the problem I have with that is that during that time the enemy will begin walking towards the area you are about to Q, which means there's less time to zone them.

But I'm pretty sure this patch corrected that. There's a timed delay before it auto targets now.

Incorrect as they are stunned after being rammed into the wall, which your auto attack goes off immediately, getting in the damage while they are still stunned, then you can Use Poppy's Q, aiming it in the direction the enemy is going to run trying to get away from you. The slow that Poppy's Q gives will keep them there long enough to hit them with the second damage part of the ability, while you are still punding on them with your auto attack.

This is exactly how I get passed the nerf on her Q.

I'm done with the boards. This shit was LITERALLY JUST ON THE PATCH NOTES. Let me read it to you since you can't get it through your thick skulls:

#COMBO BREAKER We've improved the E-Q combo from 6.1. Hammer Shock will now only auto-aim toward your target if your mouse cursor has not moved significantly after casting Heroic Charge.

So, LIKE I JUST FUCKING SAID, you move the Q up so that when the stun wears off, they walk into the zone instead of out of it.
