Poppy
Champions that beat Poppy
- Fioratop
Fiora's Riposte parries Heroic Charge and reflects the stun back onto Poppy, cancelling her single committed engage. Duelist's Dance vital procs deal true damage that ignores Poppy's Armor stacks every few seconds.
- Kennentop
Thundering Shuriken pokes from 950 range against a 475 Heroic Charge, and Lightning Rush gives 100% Move Speed to leave before Poppy closes. He stays targetable throughout, so what beats her here is distance and not immunity.
- Luxmid
Lux's Light Binding has 1175 range and roots Poppy while she walks forward to commit Heroic Charge, cancelling the dash mid-cast. Lucent Singularity slow then zones her out of the 475 range of Heroic Charge before she can close.
- Miliosupport
Milio's Breath of Life R cleanses Poppy's Heroic Charge wall-stun the moment it lands, undoing her single committed engage for free. Warm Hugs shield plus speed buff peels the ADC out of Hammer Shock harass range.
- Morganasupport
Morgana's Black Shield blocks Poppy's Heroic Charge stun entirely — the dash connects but the wall-stun never procs, leaving Poppy stranded next to the ADC with no follow-up.
- Neekotop
Blooming Burst (Q) pokes safely beyond Hammer Shock (Q) range and Tangle-Barbs (E) roots before Heroic Charge (E) connects to slam Neeko into a wall. Pop Blossom (R) AOE punishes Steadfast Presence (W) anti-dash stance and Keeper's Verdict (R) requires standing still.
- Sonasupport
Sona's perma-shield Aria of Perseverance plus Crescendo R AoE stuns Poppy in the W-engage moment, denying Steadfast Presence follow-up. Hymn of Valor poke damage chips her at long range outside 475 E commit.
- Teemotop
Blinding Dart blanks the autos that carry Iron Ambassador, so Poppy loses her shield pickup and her Grasp proc while Hammer Shock keeps landing for chip only. Noxious Trap mushrooms then cover the wall angles Heroic Charge needs.
- Trundletop
Subjugate drains 40% of Poppy's current Armor and Magic Resist, the exact stats she stacks, and the cut lingers 4 seconds after the drain. Pillar of Ice reshapes the terrain Heroic Charge needs, and Frozen Domain hands him attack speed and 25% more healing.
- Vaynebot
Tumble is a dash, so Steadfast Presence does stop it, but Tumble is back every 6 seconds at rank 1 and every 2 seconds at rank 5, while Steadfast Presence comes back only every 20. Poppy cannot deny them all. Silver Bolts true damage chews through her Armor stacks in between.
- Xerathsupport
Xerath's Eye of Destruction pokes from 1000 range without Poppy ever pressing a button back, keeping her outside the 475 range of Heroic Charge and bleeding her HP across the lane phase.
Champions Poppy beats
- Alistarsupport
Steadfast Presence (W) passive stops every Headbutt (W) dash before it lands. Heroic Charge (E) stuns Alistar into a wall, denying the W-Q chain entirely and wasting Unbreakable Will (R) defensive cooldown.
- Camilletop
Camille's Hookshot anchors to a wall on cast and her engage path lines her up with terrain — Heroic Charge gets a guaranteed wall-stun follow-up against the same wall she just anchored to.
- Ireliatop
Irelia's Bladesurge dash gets grounded by Steadfast Presence mid-cast, denying her the mark-reset chain her DPS depends on. Defiant Dance damage reduction cannot save her from Heroic Charge wall-stun follow-up, and Flawless Duet stun cannot fire on a grounded target.
- Jannasupport
Iron Ambassador (P) hands her a free shield to eat the Howling Gale (Q) chip, and the Steadfast Presence (W) active stops every dash your team uses to disengage. Keeper's Verdict (R) displaces Janna away from her ADC before she can channel Monsoon (R).
- Leonasupport
Leona's Zenith Blade dash gets stopped mid-air by Steadfast Presence — she lands grounded, slowed, and unable to follow up Shield of Daybreak stun. Heroic Charge wall-stun follow-up locks her against bot lane terrain.
- Nautilussupport
Nautilus's Dredge Line hook is a dash that Steadfast Presence cancels mid-air — he lands grounded, slowed, and unable to chain the Riptide slow. Heroic Charge wall-stun then locks him against terrain.
- Rakansupport
Rakan's Grand Entrance is a dash Steadfast Presence cancels mid-air — he lands grounded, slowed, and unable to chain Battle Dance ally-recall escape. Heroic Charge wall-stun against bot lane terrain locks him for ADC follow-up.
- Riventop
Riven's Broken Wings third cast dash gets grounded by Steadfast Presence mid-air, dropping her slowed and unable to chain Valor shield or Ki Burst stun. A Heroic Charge into any top lane wall stuns her long enough to win the trade.
- Threshsupport
Poppy's Steadfast Presence W AOE stops the Death Sentence Q recast that drags Thresh onto his target, so he stays out of range of his own catch. Heroic Charge E pins him to terrain for an auto-knockup stun.
- Veigarsupport
Heroic Charge (E) wall-stun displaces Veigar through the Event Horizon (E) perimeter to a side wall, denying the cage stun trigger. Steadfast Presence (W) blocks dashes but not his Flash, and Keeper's Verdict (R) ends every disengage attempt with a long knockback.
- Yasuomid
Yasuo's Sweeping Blade gets grounded by Steadfast Presence mid-cast, dropping him slowed and unable to chain Steel Tempest tornado. Wind Wall does not stop Heroic Charge, and any wall turns that dash into a stun that wins the trade before Yasuo can answer.
- Yonetop
Yone's Soul Unbound E forward dash gets grounded by Steadfast Presence mid-cast, leaving him stranded with no return blink. Mortal Steel tornado cannot fire while slowed, and Heroic Charge wall-stun against terrain locks him for the trade.
