Poppy vs Nidalee

Updated Jun 5, 2026

Overview

Review the non-obvious jungle matchup identity before publishing.
Explain whether Poppy should invade, full clear, contest river, trade objectives, or deny Nidalee's scaling window.
Keep broad notes out of this section unless they add real jungle matchup context.

Jungle Plan

Build Poppy's jungle plan around first clear, river control, and whether the first Scuttle is contestable.
Invade Nidalee only when nearby lanes can move or the enemy jungler is tracked on the opposite side.
Convert tempo leads into Void Grubs, dragon, Herald, counter-jungle camps, or scaling denial.

Danger windows

Respect Nidalee's strongest invade, river, or objective fight timing before walking into fog.
Avoid isolated jungle fights after Poppy spends mobility, Smite, or defensive cooldowns.
Treat missing lane priority around Scuttle, dragon, Void Grubs, or Herald as a forced caution window.

Early game

Choose the first clear around lane priority and the enemy jungler's level 3 threat.
Path Poppy toward the first river move only when nearby lanes can collapse first.
Cross-map camps or gank opposite side instead of flipping a bad Scuttle fight.

Power spikes

List only real level, ultimate, first-item, objective, or scaling breakpoints.
Slow down only when Nidalee reaches a verified jungle fight or objective spike.
Push harder only when Poppy's own clear, duel, gank, or objective breakpoint is verified.

Win conditions

Turn Poppy's jungle tempo into objective access and repeatable gank pressure.
Deny Nidalee the clears, objective setups, or scaling windows that let them play on their terms.
Use cross-map trades when direct river fights are not favorable.

Tip: For Poppy vs Nidalee, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Jungle lane check.
