Overall, Amumu sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Poppy. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN.

When Amumu tries to synergize with Poppy, he observes a barely noticable drop in his total damage dealt. This may indicate that Poppy doesn't help cover for him to deal more damage or that her support also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Amumu is played with Poppy on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Poppy.
Additionally, when Amumu plays with Poppy on the same side, he often receives less damage than when he plays alone. Taking not as much damage could indicate that Poppy does a decent job of protecting Amumu during teamfights.
