Nidalee 100/0 or 0/100?

Cherysse··2 votes·314 views

Nidalee Am I able to land a needle on another needle? If the answer is yes then you are god tier, if the answer is no, well you should consider refunding the champ

The changes they did on Nidalee have made her useless for regular players and OP for highly skilled ones, there is no middle ground for her, and it is not ok, because Riot sacrificed 3 roles to allow her to be played as a jungler. I even have Headhuntress Nidalee, but I don't play her any more, they ruined her base AD and AD ratios, which made her useless on the top lane, they made her traps useless, and her midlane is just lame now because her spears are telegraphed and easy to dodge, if she lands a spear and you see when she throws it you deserve to die. She could be more of a middle ground champ, by once again making her spears more relliable and reducing their damage, and by moving some of the damage towards her traps.

This was my build actually: item 3078 item 3151 item 3087 item 3285 item 3001 item 3165

But once again, if I don't land a Q I'd better refund the champ and the skin... and believe me, If I could, I would.

Try playing lane nidalee the same as jungler. Your job isn't to win lane it's to make side lanes and enemy junglers laning experience hell. I play her in mid and top all the time and I almost always lose my lane tower or go even while forcing my team mates to win theirs.

I dunno what your rank is but I'm Low elo tand this worked for me in silver 2 last season and it still works now

Why would you build lyandry's on Nid? She's a burst champion and none of your abilities has movement slow effects to abuse lyandry's passive. If you're building her AP, it should look something like item 3100 item 3285 item 3092 item 3165 + item 3157 or item 3089 depending on the situation.

Likely because many built it on her in Season3-4 due to trap spam.

If I remember correctly, that build was still inferior to going full AP / AD nid as she still had her old AP ratios back then and when riot Riot reworked her the first time, she became the bruiser god of toplane.

Correct, it was fairly bad unless siege comp.

Stattik is bad, Tri-force is bad, replace Tri with Lich Bane if you need it, replace stattik with boots, pref mpen or swifties. Like Lilpokfluf said, you don't play her in lane to win lane, you play it to make others win lane and assassinate later when people are solo. Jungle is best spot for her, maybe if they upped spear travel speed it would be better for low teir, but doing that would make her even better at top
