Uhh yea. That's why poppy becomes progressively more invincible as he gets low and that's why philo stone stacking was stupidly good on poppy when nobody paid attention to it on any other champion.

I think the old TL team played a game where enemy poppy was 1v1 against Cho solotop and won the lane.

it was solo bot lane when roaming was popular. Chrispy ended up a little behind Wh1t3z's poppy on cho in terms of pure farm numbers, which more or less means that poppy crushed him since farmed poppy then proceded to 1v5 our team.

The thing I more hate about Poppy is if she gets farmed/fed late game she has maybe the largest burst in the game? Can usually completely nullify a champion and there's nothing you can do about it.

So how do people usually build Poppy nowadays? Pure AP, hybrid?

Why do people complain so much about a champion that is played in less than like 1% of games, though?

I remember a game where the opposing poppy was insanely fed, and so I told all 4 of my teammates to buy QSS. Funnily enough, the moment she ever ulted someone, that person didn't use the active of QSS, and we couldn't focus her down and just ran around in circles. This happened twice in a row and we eventually lost l0l

All options are viable.

You usualy start with a regrowt pendant into a philo stone for laning.
Get merc or socerer if going AP ( if you're building AD poppy, magic pen DON'T work on Q ad part )
Sheen ( core item )

then you decide

AP will go thing like DFG ( ulti's coef work on it ) lichbane and deathcap

AD will finish Trinity Force asap, get an IE and more AS

Hybrid is mostly put a gunblade somewhere, finish trinity or lichbane.

EDIT : QSS only remove the debuff on you ( the +Damage ) and don't affect Poppy invicibility.

Where did this insane argument about poppy come from?
Can't we just all focus our whines on the bruce lee in the room till he gets a nerf?

lee sin just totally bullshit because all his numbers are too high. I don't even think there's a fundamental problem with the character, I just think he needs literally all of his numbers reduced.

poppy's design is just a giant pain in the ass to play against.

Man, so much Poppy rage. She's great in 3v3s and dominion, but honestly she's really bad in 5v5s. So ridiculously hard to get any farm at all until you pass a certain threshold. I'm hoping the remake smooths that out while staying true to her current playstyle as much as possible.

imo sheen > deathfire > lich bane is best. triforce makes a lot of shit easier (farming, move speed earlier in the game, more health, slow on hit) but it's not as potent as a well played AP. CDR is also strong on poppy (good base damage on skills) and the hybrid and AD builds usually get nothing for CDR. deathfire gives 15%. with 9/0/21 and flat CDR blues, you get 29.9% with deathfire, add blue pot or buff for max 40, then have a million Q's and E's and ult always up

Does there need to be balance whining at all?

I expected better of TL.

IDK, there has to be some merit to all the players complaining about poppy having Plat last season (except me lol). I hate poppy because once she ults some one, If I'm playing the carry and she didn't ult me there are 6 seconds of, "OH GOD IM GOING T- oh I died." Flash does nothing (usually) because she moves so fast, I can't exhaust her because of her ult, can't kill her because of her ult.

Honestly, Give her ult more flavor. If she hits someone OTHER than her ult target she loses Immunity.
