I think that Poppy's problem is not that much her farming, but her dueling. I mean, even with lower mana costs she would not farm that fast as some people marvel about, so she has obviously to play aggresive in lane, trade and duel. Problem: How do you really expect to duel if your stun is OVER NINE-THOUSAND times situational?

That's why I play her in Twisted Treeline. Less mana problems due global chalice effect even if you don't own any altar, and even when that map doesn't magically changes her E, it has no wall-less mid crossroad and somewhat thinner lanes, making easier to land the wall-slam.

So I guess that Poppy all in all is viable, Summoner's Rift is not (Joking).
