The Shaco vs Poppy matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 19 recent matches analyzed, Poppy wins with a 57.9% win rate compared to Shaco's 42.1%, giving Poppy a 15.8 percentage point advantage. Game phase dynamics play a critical role here: Shaco controls the early laning stage, but Poppy outscales as the game goes longer.

Poppy has a strong advantage in this matchup. Shaco players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Poppy overextending.
