Note: This isn't from someone who played her in a match, but rather played her against a bot.

First, I want to note that if it wasn't obvious, she is now a Tank. You can thank Repetoir later, for now, lets show how and why I like the update (personally).

Alright, her passive is kind of fun. Can get a little overwhelming in late but fun none-the-less. It works on turrets, it works with items, and its range gives her a one-up on dashers that get away from basic attacks (like Renekton and Yasuo). The shield is only a bonus, and its automatic shield can activate after destroying structures.

Next, her Q now doesn't confuse the life out of me. It doesn't work on structures now, because its a ground pound. Its a lot like Sion's only they need to be closer and it rewards more.

Her W isn't as rewarding unless someone is able to dash around her. Yet, it does give a big MS boost, but not as long as it use to. The passive is a nice touch. Giving that bonus Armor and Magic Resist help her a lot... just don't get bellow 40% health... She continually says "Don't give up" over and over every few seconds....... Its not fun.

Her E functions as it use to, so not much to say there.

And her R... Well, you get the gist of it. I find it very reliable to get enemies away from turrets and can be possibly used to stop ganks.

Her look is by far the best improvement. I also see that the same voice actor for Tristana seems to be the voice actor for her. (I think its cool.) And I also think the lore is very silly, and not in a bad way. Poor Poppy, she's so amazing and yet she doesn't even notice. I'm now all for her and Rumble getting together.

Also, she is now the third female Tank, right after Leona and Sejuani. And, if Amumu is not realized as a yordle later, they still have a tank for Brandle City (Demacia now has 3).

I can't wait for Taric's rework. Glad that Poppy turned out just as powerful and as fun as she was before (only it makes sense and she isn't overloaded).

P.S. I love her new joke(s).
