Its always good to see what you guys are noticing!

EDIT: I'm confused by the downvotes... people come into this thread to see its content because they presumably want to see it, but downvote a comment praising its creation?

alright question. Gnar; his Q more specifically. why does it go different distances. ive tried to test to see if it is how log you hold down q or if its how far out you put your cursor but that doesn't seem to be it. maybe it stops after a certain target? idk any clarification will be apreciated ty!

So I've noticed that with every game I've played with the reworked Poppy in it has been a LOSS if the enemy enemy team has one or a VICTORY if my team has one.

In a match just a few minutes ago a Poppy with only a Black Cleaver and Cloth Armor could do 800 damage with a single Q to a Gnar with 2k healh and 100+ armor and the Poppy with only Cloth Armor had 144 armor and a passive shield that was up so often she basically could not take damage. Poppy's armor would increase to ever higher levels when activating her W passive to a point of absolute unkillable nature even when pinned under tower for nearly 10 seconds and having a whole enemy team leap on her.

SO THE POINT IM GETTING TO IS -

-that this made it through PBE, I'm pretty much positive it had negative feedback about not being balanced but it still hit live servers and now everyone that plays poppy is pretty much a trash talking asshole that ruins the game for everyone; just like that other champion that was recently released Illaoi.

champions that are Late Game strong during the very beginning of the game are already bad enough (cough cough Yasuo) but to make champions that all ready have higher base damage and resistances plus higher damage and resistance scaling coupled with abilities that have little to no counter play is really ridiculous. There are only 6 bans in Ranked/Draft mode and anyone on this forum can tell you which champions almost never get to see the light of the rift. Poppy is one
