Kled vs Poppy

Updated Jun 3, 2026

Overview

Use Kled's early melee pressure and (Q) tether to deny Poppy safe farming and force short trades near no walls.
Prioritize early all-ins and remount bait to snowball before Poppy can leverage her anti-dash (W) and wall stun (E) control.

Trading pattern

Start trades by landing (Q) to pull Poppy in, then commit burst autos with (W) before she can react.
Avoid trading when (W) is down or if (Q) misses, as Poppy's anti-dash and wall stun become more threatening.
Use (E) mobility to reposition and chase, but respect (W) zone that blocks dashes and can stop your engage.

Danger windows

Be cautious when approaching near walls, as (E) can stun you if she pins you against terrain.
Avoid dashing into (W) zone as it blocks your engage and can turn trades against you.
Vulnerable while dismounted before remount; avoid extended fights without a clear escape or remount path.

Early game

Aggressively trade at level 2-3 when (Q), (W), and (E) are available to force Poppy out of lane or burn cooldowns.
Avoid extended fights near walls where Poppy can punish with (E) and (W); instead, fight in open space to reduce her control.
Use remount opportunities to bait Poppy into overcommitting and punish her cooldowns.

Power spikes

Level 2-3: Use full combo of (Q), (W), and (E) to force early all-ins and snowball lane pressure.
Level 6: Use (R) to initiate long-range engages or roams with team follow-up to capitalize on Poppy's limited mobility.
Respect Poppy's level 6 (R) knockaway as it can disrupt your engage or force you out of fights.

Win conditions

Snowball lane by landing (Q) and using (W) burst to force Poppy out or kill early.
Use remount bait to extend fights and punish Poppy's misjudgments on your health.
Leverage (R) to create side-lane pressure or team fight engages once ahead to close out the game quickly.
