How to win lane as Yone against Poppy · 50.06% win rate over 1,572 Emerald+ games · Updated 2026-07-27
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Poppy | Poppy wins level 1 — her Steadfast Presence negates your dashes and shuts down your engage. |
| Level 2 | Poppy | Level 2 stays hers as Heroic Charge threatens a wall-stun that punishes any approach. |
| Level 3 | Even / skill | Level 3 evens into a skill check where trading around her W cooldown keeps it neutral. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Levels 4-5 remain a skill check as your cooldown-punishing wins some windows, hers win others. |
| Level 6 | Even / skill | At 6 it's even — Keeper's Verdict can cancel your all-in, so the ult trade is a coin-flip. |
| First item | Yone | First item is yours: your DPS spike out-damages her tank build once her W is down. |
| Two+ items | Yone | Late you out-scale — kiting her limited CC windows and cleaving her down in every extended fight. |
Poppy wins levels 1-2 — her Steadfast Presence hard-counters your dash-heavy kit, negating your Q3 and E-return, and her E can stun you into terrain for a punishing trade. Play around her W: don't engage while it's up and farm patiently.
