Poppy updates

So many updates. In the 4.17 discussion, they mentioned poppy updates again in a way that sounded like they were in some way possible.

At this point many characters scale as big as poppy at full build... none of them have as horrible of an early game (Fizz, Vi, Riven). Very item dependant melee, but nothing to help her farm... with no natural regen, or escape mechanism. If you can hit someone into a wall, she can stick to them pretty well, but if she charges anyone without hitting a wall, most people can just out pace her.

She's on the level of other players once she boosts her mana pool, mana regen, move speed, and gets some health regen. By the time she's on the level others have started at, they'll have an infinity edge or blood thirster.

hmmm is this a joke? Poppy is incredibly overpowered, once she gets sheen on her first back that lane is pretty much done for her opponent.

Poppy has a weak early game in the same way Nasus does. By that I mean both CAN have a weak early game, but they also are able to steamroll their way into an early late game.

Vi has a bad early game top where mana is an issue. That's why people jungle with her instead of going top as intended. I wonder if riot is ever going to fix that.
