Can Riot please add some counterplay to Poppy

I have no real objection to the Poppy rework as she needed it for a long long time however, when she dashes, she can push you back rather far, even if you are not standing near a wall at first and she simply does her combo with absolutely no counterplay at all. She happens to be worse then Leona is in terms of how much she can lock people down.

I do not think her kit should change but I do believe that some counterplay should be added to her combo that actually allows her opponant to cast a defensive spell or use a defensive summoners because she does feel like there is absolutely nothing you can do. Plus her damage seems rather high for such a tanky champion, not as bad as Garen but still obnoxious so I think she probably needs more counterplay options. You do not even get time to use item 3157 during her combo.

Her current pick rate in the LCS kinda indicates that there is something really wrong with her.

Poppy's winrate has dropped by 5% in 6.7, as they removed a significant amount of range from her Passive and E. That's pretty much gutted one of her dominant strengths. Just kite her and stay out of range, she no longer has more than 450 range on any of her abilities save for ult.
