Zyra vs Poppy

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Leverage Zyra's strong early CC and poke to control jungle paths and river vision.
Respect Poppy's high invade resistance and terrain-based gank threat near walls.
Prioritize brush control and plant zones to limit Poppy's engage angles and mobility.

Jungle Plan

Path for early Scuttle control when nearby lanes can assist and hold brush for root setups.
Counter-invade camps only when Poppy commits (W) or misses (E) wall stuns.
Use plants to zone Poppy from objectives, forcing her to fight in unfavorable terrain.

Danger windows

Avoid isolated river fights before level 3 when Poppy can stun against walls.
Respect (W) dash denial when near terrain or during forced objective setups.
Be cautious contesting objectives without vision as (R) can displace and reset fights.

Early game

Start full clear to reach level 3 quickly and contest Scuttle with lane priority.
Avoid early river fights without vision as (W) and (E) punish dash-reliant invades.
Use brush control near river entrances to set up safe Scuttle contests and counter-invades.

Power spikes

Level 2 root plus plant poke enables early jungle pressure and safer Scuttle fights.
Level 6 (R) provides strong zone control to turn fights around objectives or counter-ganks.
Mid-game power spike when brush control and root follow-up deny Poppy's engage angles.

Win conditions

Convert brush control and root setups into secure Scuttle and dragon vision dominance.
Use (R) to zone Poppy away from objectives and enable safer teamfight positioning.
Deny Poppy's engage by forcing her into plant zones, limiting her ability to reach carries.

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