Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.
Except for rare builds, Pyke deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Poppy deals mainly physical damage (78.49%), additional items against this damage type may be required against snowballing or aggressive play.
Consider the excellent vision control demonstrated by Poppy, ranking 2nd (versus 4th for Pyke) in ward placement among supports. This means the opponent provides better map vision for their team. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.4 versus 2.2) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.
In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Pyke player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Poppy player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.
