Is Ziggs better when played alongside Poppy?

There is no perfect synergy for Ziggs that will no matter what be his best ally. However, Poppy is a relatively poor companion for Ziggs. By locking into the same side as Ziggs, she decreases their win rate by -1.6% to 46.5%. This shows that there is a bad strategic relationship between Ziggs and Poppy that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Poppy has a greater difficulty than Ziggs. That means Ziggs players need to be very careful when lining up Poppy comrades to play with, as they will need a greater level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Playing cooperatively, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to buff allies and debuff enemies. When paired, these champions should be able to manipulate the pace of team fights.

Conversely, by grouping Ziggs and Poppy together, you probably will not be granting your team a great deal of attack damage. Make sure to pick other champions on your team that neutralizes this relative hole in their playstyle.

Regardless of your Poppy ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
