Nidalee is a meme
THE COMBO Begin human Javelin -> Ult -> Pounce -> Swipe -> Takedown Note: Same regardless of lane or jungle. Lategame, do this over walls. You'll know the walls, because you've seen every other Nidalee do the same thing. IF LANING AND AN ENEMY IS STAYING INSIDE MINIONS Bushwhack -> Ult -> Pounce -> Swipe -> Takedown THE FOLLOWUP A) Use any applicable items or summoners and continue to spam Cougar spells B) Pounce away (if Pounce -> Swipe killed minions) -> Heal -> Basic attack until enemy moves away IF AN ENEMY HAS GIVEN CHASE Spam pounce to gain range, then turn around and do The Combo.
These are the only combos you will see a Nidalee do. If you suspect that this is not the case, get it on film and send it to Guinness.
NIDALEE IS A MEME The timings on these combos are the same for every player. The situations in which these combos are used are the same for every player. The items bought and the skill order are identical in all cases. There is no individualism when playing Nidalee. You are not playing Nidalee to express yourself, any more than someone uses a lolcat to express themselves. You are not playing Nidalee because she is fun, any more than someone reads trollcomics because they are fun. NIDALEE IS A MEME You are using Nidalee because she is strong. In fact, you are using Nidalee because she is strong enough that you can do these combos- exactly the same same combos that a hundred, a thousand other people entirely different from you are doing at exactly the same time- and get away with them. Sometimes- often, even- your opponents know exactly what to expect. Sometimes, this gets you killed- sometimes, it doesn't. NIDALEE IS A MEME You do not play Nidalee. Nidalee plays you. When you kappa in a Twitch chat, you are not the thing people see. The kappa is. When you play Nidalee in a ranked game, you are not the person throwing the spears. Nidalee is. Not everyone who plays Nidalee is the same. Some are bronze, some are diamond. Some are 12, some are 21. But every Nidalee is the same. If you could not see the name, you would never guess the Nidalee.
Nidalee is a meme, and that above all else is one thing League does not need more of.
is so exciting without using the same old boring combo.
