Darius is going to hold her at arms length and just keep swining his Q. What, is she going to E in? Great, now half her mana is gone while Darius has enough left in him for 4-6 more swings.

Her damage isn't high until lvl 16, she has no sustain, and has abyssal mana costs.

Lets look at Nasus at lvl 5, where both characters have settled into their lanes but haven't gotten their ults yet. Poppy's Q does 60+80 damage against 1000 health. Nasus does 70+(3x). Assuming Nasus has farmed a bare minimum of creeps with his Q, hes doing more damage than Poppy.

How much does Nasus' cost? 20 mana.

How much does Poppy's cost? 55 mana.

Which one of them has the lifesteal passive?
