A serious discussion about Nidalee

Ever since her rework and jungle changes its extremely difficult to play her in any other role than jungle. Her top lane AD build (which I loved) was nerfed into the ground and is way less viable now. Her Q is so slim that I feel like when I land a spear its luck and not skill on my part. Jungle is the only place I can find some type of benefits to playing her, and thats only because I can free farm and its easier to land a spear from fog of war. I miss playing Nidalee in other lanes other than jungle. Spears are so easy to dodge now, which is sort of fine, but her whole kit is now tied into applying her passive to jump in, and since her bruiser build was nerfed its easy to blow her up if she does jump in. You either do amazing with her or you are a handicap to your team.

She isn't even a good poke mage anymore, there are so many better options whos poke does aoe damage. it is so much easier to land skillshots with these guys for a good amount of damage, and its aoe, some of them even go through minions. The spear is such a core to her playstyle that she is near useless unless she actually hits it. I'm not even sure what can be done with her, but I feel off when I play her in actual lanes. Maybe increase the missile speed of her Q and thats it. The way I see people easily dodging spears is depressing.

I know how people feel about her but we have to admit, can use some love.
