The ranged attack procs on hits, but counts as a melee iirc.

Which works great for grasp of the undying.

but feels too weird its like a mini Draven axe effect i would preffer a over charged melee attack like her old Q that shields more than that puny ranged attack

Idk, the shield is for 15% of your max hp on a 10 second cooldown late game. Combined with your 12-24% bonus resists and a tanky fighter build, that makes you really hard to kill - and anyone who tries to go out of their way to step on it will probably eat a wall stun as a squishy or an ult to the face as a tank.

I do wish it would the passive would be effected by cdr or gave some cooldown refunded when you pick it up, but I haven't played her enough yet since when I messe around on pbe to really make solid judgement on her balance state atm.

she just doesnt feel good,i would preffer she reworked with a passive melee insted of ranged ,a Q on hit that cleaves instead of place a slow in the ground,the w with resist is ok and the ult knockback is as troll as a Kalista ult in a bronzie hands

btw i love how they downvote but no one post a good reason to downvote

In general, having fewer enemy champions near a fight or contested area is a good thing.

Ult one or two people away from a siege: Your team wins the siege. Ult the enemy jungler away from drag: Your team gets drag. Ult the enemy frontliner out of a fight: The rest of their team has to run or die

why not a simple knockup like Braum ? that would be enough...its one of those ults that could troll the whole team kills i just tested it and pushed 3 enemies away not only 1

edit:if it charges for only 1 second it knocks up instead,but you have to time it perfectly...

It knocks away anybody in the impact (like Braum).

The big difference is that the enemy isn't still there after being knocked up. Somebody like Braum is good for lockdown, when your team is ready to close in for the kill(s). Poppy's ult is solely for peel and disengage. No kill potential, but safer than trying to get past a tank or kill an assassin before they kill your carry.

She's an anti-engage frontliner, suitable for teams that focus on hypercarries or any comp that wants to win via the "slow roll"

Divide and conquer. This concept is so simple a monkey could grasp it.

That passive shield is pretty damn strong, if you think about it.

Vi and Malphite, two comparable shields, only have 10% of their max HP.
