Lee Sin vs Poppy

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Lee Sin is a high-mobility early skirmisher aiming to force river fights and invade before Poppy can establish terrain control.
Prioritize early river control and use (Q) and (W) mobility to contest Scuttle and punish Poppy's slower clears and anti-dash reliance.

Jungle Plan

Clear camps efficiently but prioritize early river pressure and invade before Poppy completes her three-camp clear.
Use (Q) to initiate fights or invade when enemy jungler pathing is tracked and lanes have priority.
Contest dragon and Rift Herald setups by leveraging (R) to displace Poppy and deny her objective access.

Danger windows

Respect Poppy's early invade timing around terrain where she can stun with (E) and block dashes with (W).
Avoid isolated river fights near walls where Poppy can easily land (E) stuns and (R) knockaways.
Be cautious contesting objectives when (R) is available to deny smite fights or disengage.

Early game

Start with a path that enables level 3 invade or counter-invade when nearby lanes have priority.
Fight for first Scuttle only if your lanes can collapse quickly to avoid Poppy's strong terrain stuns.
Avoid extended fights near walls where (E) can stun and (W) can deny your dashes.

Power spikes

At level 3, use your full kit to force river fights and invade before Poppy can react.
At level 6, leverage (R) to isolate key targets or disrupt Poppy's objective control.
Respect Poppy's first tank item timing as she becomes harder to burst and her (W) dash denial becomes more effective.

Win conditions

Convert early invade pressure and river control into dragon and Rift Herald advantages.
Use creative ward-hop ganks and (R) displacement to secure kills and snowball lanes.
Deny Poppy free farm and scaling by tracking her pathing and counter-jungling when lanes have priority.
