Additional Poppy Build Insights

League of Legends Poppy players could find her to be a complex champion to build out properly. You will notice that her build is modified when she is up against either well-rounded or specialized team compositions, indicating you should not take the same Poppy build every single game of League of Legends

The most critical items to incorporate into your champ's build include: Divine Sunderer, Sterak's Gage, and Dead Man's Plate. Those who added these items in their gear had a much better win rate than players who used other builds for Poppy. Moreover, if you are facing a well-mixed enemy team composition, you should strongly consider getting Poppy the Sorcery, and Domination runes. In recent games, she won the greatest number of her rounds when using these runes.

We set our Poppy build suggestions by analyzing 35,921 recently ranked LoL games with her in them. We only recommend the best winrate Poppy builds that have been built by ranked LoL players enough times for us to advise them.
