To me, Poppy always felt lacking a proper place in the game. I propose making her better in the jungle by improving her clearing times with a champion specific item she can get at the start, like a hunter's machete

Sigil of Bandle City - 300g

Unique Passive - Butcher: Damage dealt to monsters increased by 10%. Unique Passive - Maim: Your basic attacks deal 10 bonus magic damage to monsters. Unique Passive - Roundhouse Kick: Your basic attacks to monsters deal 50% of your attack damage to surrounding enemies.

This champion specific item would help her jungle clear times and could be built into the usual jungler items later. The new passive should have a similar range as the other splash passives like on Hydra.

A different take would be to put the proposed passive onto a real champion specific item that scales, stacks or can be upgraded similar to Rengar's or Viktor's. You could have her be open to different playstyles - a tanky upgrade, a damage upgrade, a utility upgrade with enhanced range on heroic charge or a movement speed bonus or stuff like that. The thing is I really dont want the splash passive working in the lane, because that would be hard to balance, so lane Poppy wouldnt buy the item or would buy it later for utility or so.
