Patch 6.6 notes

Okay so riot has completely nerfed Nidalee jungle. It is now impossible to do her jungle clear and I feel this is going to cause many issues regarding people who want to play this champion. I feel this is one of the worst nerfs they could have done for Nidalee, making her passive useless against monsters. Just nerf her base damages a bit. Now she is a completely useless champion because of her garbage lane phase and nobody will play her. I have personally dedicated so much time into this champion on improving my mechanics with her and now that feels like a waste. I really wish for riot to see this topic and maybe consider making some sort of new nerf for her instead of destroying her jungle clear.

This was completely in order, nidalee jungle was ridiculously strong. It's not gonna be impossible to play just harder.

Nidalee Jungle in the hands of a very good player was ridiculously strong, yes. But as Riot stated "We’re lowering Nidalee’s ability to run circles around the competition with a lead in pro play without significantly impacting her performance in normal play." Now, how is a normal Silver-Player supposed to clear the first 3 camps without the root? If they atleast kept the root on the W, that would make it harder but still be able to somehow do it. But without that? On the other hand, the really good players will still be able to do it, and then Nidalee will still be able to be ridiculously strong. So... in my eyes they did the exact opposite of what they wrote. Killed Nidalee in the Jungle in those Elos, where she wasn't really a problem because nobody really utilized her to the full potential anyway, while she still remains extremely strong Diamond+ Wouldn't be suprised if there came another nerf in 6.8.

It's absolutely okay no nerf her, but why this? They even stated, they don't want it to affect the nerfs her normal play, and then they remove the one thing, that made her playable for many people in the jungle in the beginning.

Let me tell you dude, I'm not a good player by any means, (Bronze 4 life) and whenever I play her I seem to do extremely well, even if I die to a jg camp early. I have statistics to back this up if you really want.

they need to atleast let pounce keep the auto reset she feels so clunky without it and it hurts lane nid more than it hurts jungle nid if they want to remove an auto reset they should have removed the one of her R
