But how can evil win. They don't know how to use their weapons. No evil person has ever managed to hit a good guy as they run away.

Not in %90 of movies, but Evilness is far more powerful and overwhelming in Warhammer 40k. Actually, there is no good entities in this fantasy universe, only neutral races and evils.

Chaos overpowers humanity in full potential (all Warp armies), Necrons are not even using their %10 powers.

My theory is that she suffers from a combination of imposter syndrome and a very real fear of responsibility.

Meep Man3 votes

Not sure about any of those, I just dont think she has much self-confidence and is stubborn.

But it fits perfectly! Quoting from wikipedia (imposter syndrome):

referring to high-achieving individuals marked by an inability to internalize their accomplishments and a persistent fear of being exposed as "fraud".[1] Despite external evidence of their competence, those exhibiting the syndrome remain convinced that they are frauds and do not deserve the success they have achieved. Proof of success is dismissed as luck, timing, or as a result of deceiving others into thinking they are more intelligent and competent than they believe themselves to be.

i personally think she's senile she's like grandma yordle old at this point

Karma Deified8 votes

Poppy was once a strong, determined, respectable Yordle with a purpose and honour.

"Valoran will know harmony." "Their defeat is non-negotiable!" "If it will bring peace."

But now...

"I'm in one-hundred-percent! That's everything, right?" "Just had a thought - three pigtails!" "I could really go for a nap." "Know what I could use? A cart." "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, uh... hammer!" "And the Freljordian says, "I'll drink anything, so long as-" Wait, hold on, let me start over." "Shieldy." "Whoa. You went far." "Wait, what did I come back for?"

Poppy is a literal dumb blonde, absent-minded, oblivious, lazy Yordle with a George Bush reference to amplify just how dumb she is. A George Bush reference ffs!

The cringe is so hard while playing her cause it's like every quote is either.

"Hey, notice my lore? Hey hey? Did you read my lore? Well, just remember I'm pretty stupid and oblivious."

"Hey, hey about the lore again! In case you didn't read it, I'm very one dimensional. Oh and oblivious."

"Hey, hey, hey! Are you going to go read my lore? Just listen to all this stuff I'm saying, go read it! Please go read it."

And from time to time,

"Oh, this isn't in the lore, but I'm kinda lazy too."

And why?!

Dumb brute trope is already taken! Trundle

Xenohaz9 votes

Trundle isn't really dumb though. That was a big point in his lore that he isn't as stupid as most other trolls are. He's much more intelligent and manipulative. His quote from the lore is "Outsmart anyone you can't beat, and beat anyone you can't outsmart." He's not a genius or anything, but I don't think he fits the dumb brute trope.

Karma Deified1 votes

Fair point, but you wouldn't get that from his quotes eh?

missinggrave7 votes

Most of his threats and quotes are witty with double meanings though!

"Smashing!" - What he does, and a way to describe something delightful

"I'm gonna knock 'em dead." - What you say when trying to impress someone, when in reality he's actually knocking 'em dead

"You got a problem with me? Join the club!" - This is literally a threat that's a pun

"C'mere princess!" - Casually mocking royalty with Trynd and Lissandra.

Trundle is hilarious and I'll have nothing to do with anyone calling him a dumb brute.

Trundle's a Troll after all. He knows how to push the right buttons to piss people off while avoiding any punishment in the process.

Lazy? Are we looking at the same character? This is a yordle who will stop at nothing to accomplish her goal. This tiny creature literally got stepped on by a walking mountain and then just nonchalantly split it in half. Yes she may be a bit absent minded, she may a little dense, but there is much more to Poppy's character then just those few lines.

Poppy is DETERMINATION

CoffeeDave8 votes

I just assumed she was in denial. Like she doesn't WANT to be the hero. Maybe she's just hoping the hero is someone else. Anyone else but her. Because perhaps she feels she's not hero material.

They've built her naivete into her very quotes, which are rarely updated, so essentially she's locked into being an idiot until she gets an lore update.

Keep in mind league is currently stuck in a time-stasis when it comes to lore and champion depth, especially when it comes to what happens on the Rift. Basically nothing changes individually every time a fight happens

missinggrave2 votes

False. Zilean still exists and his entire character revolves around the fact HIS BODY ISNT IN TIME STASIS. We just ignore what the lore team makes up at this point since there's been no proper explanation for the open-world league yet. Or....that's what I do at least.

Correct me if I am wrong, but are all the yordles in the game not more or less insane by our standards?

Insanity of a character doesn't give a writer license not to explain a character's actions.
