How to Play with Poppy as Neeko in LoL

Overall, Neeko sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Poppy. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Poppy helps Neeko perform not as well in competitive League of Legends games. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Neeko tries to synergize with Poppy, she observes a small increase in her total damage output. This could demonstrate that Poppy provides protection for her to dish out more damage or that her presence on the team also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Neeko is played together with Poppy on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays without Poppy. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Poppy.

Additionally, when Neeko plays with Poppy on the same side, she on average receives a little more damage than when she plays alone. Receiving more damage could indicate that Poppy does a poor job of protecting Neeko in teamfights.

Is Neeko better when played alongside Poppy?

There is no one best ally for Neeko that will always be her ideal synergy. Yet, overall, Poppy is a very typical companion for Neeko. By being on the same side as Neeko, she drops their win rate by -0.2% to 49.2%. This clearly indicates that there is a weak synergy between Neeko and Poppy that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Poppy has a greater difficulty than Neeko. That means you should be very careful when lining up Poppy comrades to fight alongside, as they will require a greater level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Fighting alongside, Neeko players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to provide utility and CC for your side. When paired, these champs will help their other teammates secure a victory.

Although, by aligning Neeko and Poppy together, you may not be providing your team a lot of sustained damage output. Plan to pick other champs on your team that nullifies this relative hole in their kit.

Regardless of the skill of your Poppy ally, you need to focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
