Playing against Poppy
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
1
Do NOT dash when Poppy's W is active: all dashes are cancelled and you get grounded.
2
Avoid fighting near walls: her E only stuns if you're pushed against a wall.
3
Her charged R can be interrupted by CC — stun her during the channel.
4
Champions without dashes are unaffected by her W — that's an advantage against her.
