Poppy rework
So I do see that Poppy is in line for a rework... I'm very saddened by this :'(. I've played Poppy ever since Season 3 when I started and she's my favorite champion. What does Riot have planned for her?

Yeah, I love Poppy too, but I know one thing for certain that has eased my mind about it: they are keeping her heroic charge relatively unchanged. I got that information in a direct Rioter reply, which you can see here: http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/ik9r8Es2-im-willing-to-sacrifice-the-next-champion-release-to-prioritise-fixes-and-reworks-for-old-champions?comment=003700050000000b0000 . That is all he was willing to share about her kit so far though. She is definitely changing, so I would get in as many games with her as possible if you don't trust where she might end up.
Poppy is probably going to be gutted if Riot's history with reworks stands, with Sion being the only good one. It more than likely won't even be Poppy when they're done, like old Cassiopeia who was a high risk high reward lane bully and now she's just a wanna be Veigar (and they only changed the passive and numbers). I did ask a few questions about the rework which you can find below but there are no answers. http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/ik9r8Es2-im-willing-to-sacrifice-the-next-champion-release-to-prioritise-fixes-and-reworks-for-old-champions?comment=003700050000000b00000002 I just hope she stays as a tank assassin because if she doesn't then the entire way I play her is gone.
i own all of poppy skins so please riot don't bone me i love poppy she my fav champ i don't know what you going to change but keep poppy being poppy and don't sex her up like kat akail etc etc etc i don't think that will fit her lore

I don't know how much Riot's thoughts have changed since then, but tl;dr - they're going to make some hefty changes, but like who Poppy is and want to keep that alive. So, not a Sion-level rework. I think she'll be alright, Riot's learned a lot about doing this kind of thing. :)
well seeing as her ult has been broken since release its about time. if you didn't know it not ending on the death of her target is what i mean by broken. in other words if she kills her first target fast enough she can move on and kill others and be untouchable.
