Please stop taking flash on Poppy

Just take summoner 6. It goes so well with her kit for sticking that summoner 4 is rarely ever useful on her. It was the same before her rework. The ghost helps you stick better and helps position for the stuns a lot better. It also makes her a gank train if you are the jungler. No one expects a short blue girl to run that fast and pin you to a wall out of nowhere.

People probably think you can flash behind them and ult towards your tower or something

Summoner spells are the only thing that makes this game diverse anymore.

With so much people relying on meta/item builds/skill prioritization it's sad that people are uppity about summoner spells.

I prefer the S1 method. Fuck around with things and see how they work, THEN tell people about what you found and see if they would try it as well.

It just pains me to watch a jungler poppy take flash because they kind of awkwardly wander into lane trying to do something. When if they took summoner 6 the enemy laner would be dead. I could only really see taking summoner 4 on Poppy now against people you really want to get away from, but it is very rare as the front line to have to run away. I could see needing flash for top lane if they have a super bully like MonkeyKing or Darius.

If you're enemy top laner is to far extended, chances are you'll always be able to land a stun, or have to force a flash. With ghost? It's like, " Oh Poppy is ganking my lane, let's just avoid the walls. " Gank averted.

Flash is kinda useful because Flash E into a wall and the person has to use flash or they're dead.

Idk, flash is a pretty damn good summoner spell. I find it hard to part with that. I mean, couldn't the enemy just flash away if you ghosted in anyway?

Flash just feels like the best choice. The devs even balance around flash it's so good.

eh, i prefer flash cause i can use it to get out of failed dives easier and can flash to a better position for peeling or engageing(like say flash e'ing someone for the stun or flashing on top of your adc and pressing w to protect them) or even flashing onto my shield if i absolutely need it.
