How to win lane as Wukong against Poppy · 55.61% win rate over 223 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Even / skill | Level 1 is an even farm standoff with no kill threat either way, so it reads Skill. |
| Level 2 | Poppy | At Level 2 Poppy's Q % trade and E wall-stun start controlling the lane in her favor. |
| Level 3 | Poppy | By Level 3 her wall combos still win trades, favoring her. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 even out as your items come online and spacing denies her E. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | Level 6 is even because your R survives and her W only stalls your dash. |
| First item | Even / skill | At first item the lane stays even as your bruiser spike matches her kit. |
| Two+ items | Wukong | With two-plus items you out-duel a damage-capped tank Poppy, favoring you. |
Level 1 is even, but from 2-3 Poppy's Q % damage and E wall-stun let her control every trade.
