| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Warwick | Level 1 favours you because Poppy has feeble early damage and only wants to farm. |
| Level 2 | Even / skill | Level 2 is even as both build toward a spike with no decisive combo yet. |
| Level 3 | Warwick | Level 3 favours you: Q reset and Blood Hunt speed out-trade her weak early kit. |
| Levels 4-5 | Warwick | Levels 4-5 stay yours since your sustain and burst beat her low tank damage. |
| Level 6 | Warwick | Level 6 is yours because Infinite Duress bursts her before her tank stats matter. |
| First item | Warwick | First item favours you as your bruiser spike beats a tank whose damage hasn't scaled. |
| Two+ items | Poppy | Two-plus items swings to Poppy: full tank HP, dash-block, and knockback win the late duel. |
Levels 1-2 are yours — Poppy has weak early damage and just wants to farm, so trade with Q, sustain her poke, and mark her with Blood Hunt when she drops low.
