Is Zyra better when played alongside Poppy?

There is no universally accepted best ally for Zyra that will no matter what be her top ally. However, overall, Poppy is a very typical ally for Zyra. By locking into the same team as Zyra, she decreases their win rate by -0.2% to 52.4%. This signals that there is a weak bond between Zyra and Poppy that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Poppy has a lower difficulty than Zyra. That means you don't need to be very careful when arranging Poppy teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Working together, Zyra players should expect to observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to support your allies. When paired, these two may be able to carry with the power of their abilities.

Although, by grouping Zyra and Poppy together, you probably will not be giving your other teammates a lot of sustained damage output. We recommend you have other champions on your team that fills this relative gap in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Poppy ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well anyway.
