A Question Regarding the Star Guardian Familiars...

So, last year when we got the first expansion to the Star Guardian skin line, Poppy ended up being the only one (barring Lux, but she's older) to not have a familiar. This made sense just fine, as unlike Lulu and Janna she had nothing that could be used as a familiar, nor was she a legendary skin like Jinx.

However, with this new set, all five of the new Star Guardians have some sort of familiar added to their skin, even Ezreal, Soraka, and Miss Fortune, none of whom have any sort of particles like Syndra at least doesw ith her orbiting spheres.

I just feel like this leaves a weird case for Poppy as the only newer Star Guardian to not have a familiar.

Why are you barring Lux >:(. If they're gonna take the time to update one, they need to update all. Also, this isn't the first thread made on the topic.

You are aware that Lulu normally has a fairy with her named Pix in classic skin and Janna has a bird flying around her named Zephyr when she doesn't use her e, which is also in the classic skin, right?

In all seriousness, Poppy's hammer is her familiar.

Sentient weapons man.

Lux has a familiar named Mimi that hides inside of her staff, but it's stated that some people find their power lies within weapons. Poppy's "familiar" is Light's Hammer, the hammer she uses. It's more like a wizard's Arcane Bond where it could be a familiar or an object.
