Poppy's Ultimate Keepers Verdict needs changed

I've been playing a lot of poppy and I've noticed that while her kit is nice her Ultimate makes no sense to me, if you quick tap it does some damage and knocked the target straight up. Yet if you fully charge the ability it does a little damage rockets the enemy and everyone it hits back to their side of the map and in effect saves the enemy team from being wiped out in a team fight. I last week a game where I full ulted an enemy hero the damage dropped them to 50hp and knocked them back to their tower and they safely ran back to base due to taking zero fall damage.

Why can't Poppys ultimate when fully charged just rocket everyone into the sky causing damage from the knock up and falling back down onto the spiked rubble you caused from the ground slam? It seems like it would be a much better effect and CC ability for team fights considering Poppy is a melee and should be causing that king of destruction with her ultimate.

The only issue I have with Poppy's ultimate is that it's the type of ultimate which in Lcs play it makes her really good while in regular play her ultimate is kind of meh. It has it's uses in teamfights that can turn the whole fight around but for the most part, at least in lane, it doesn't do anything unless u get away from a gank or finish a kill with it. I don't think it needs to be changed right now it might need one in the future since it feels a strong in lcs weak in low elo type of ability. If it does get a change, I think that her ultimate should give her around a 1s stun if u middle to fully charge the ability (increasing on duration of the charge). It's just an idea, but the rest of her kit is perfectly fine (except for the people playing against her, because they don't realize that she doesn't need to hit her stun to win a dual. If that was the case, she would need a buff. They also hate tanks who do tons of damage but I mean poppy has more counter play than most if not all of them).
