I really hate Poppy... at lvl1 her Q does 2x the damage of mine because of her completely broken passive and if I stick around long enough to auto and activate mine it's even worse. She also managed to stun me out of my E+Q escape 3 times after I had already started moving. Our Xerath was amazing and I feel like pomegranate because I just couldn't make anything happen and this cost me my promo to Gold 1 after two dominating matches. 2nd game was lost because we forgot to ban Azir and someone on my team tried to play him as support. To be fair, the player was the problem not the champ but I can't help but hope that loss could have been prevented if he picked something he was more experienced with. Riot should just disable new champs from ranked for a week to save us the inexperienced players and bugged champion shenanigans.

If Poppy becomes a problem, maybe try ulting her then E-Qing out before she stuns you into your ulti's wall. I think the changes to Poppy's stun in general causes problems for Jarvan because if you ulti her, you're creating terrain for her to stun you (and the radius is so small that if she just charges you in ulti you're probably going to hit a wall). Poppy in general is a pain to deal with, because you have to really punish her in lane to keep her down. If she isn't far behind in items, she's probably still going to do well mid/late game.

Also, try picking Alistar vs Poppy. He's VERY great at countering her in team fights. The issue is he isn't useful during her ulti's duration, but if she ultis you, there's nothing she can do. You can also bully her out of lane and be more useful for your team.
