Legit every duscussion or question about Nidalee gets ignored. Doesnt matter how much attention a post gets about her ( reddit front page ). Can we please gets some Qol for her? Her kit has been nerfed for her competiteve dominance but that was 2 seasons ago. Items got changed jungle got changed and bunch more. Not to mention she didnt get compensated well enough during the runes reforged update. Her ganks without the element of suprise are laughable and her ability to kill or duel is so dependent on her passive that without it u have little to no chance of winning which is funny since the only actual way of getting it is by a super slow projectile thats so easily dodged which basically states my second point her human w is so unimpactful aside from clearing the jungle. The dmg is so little it cant even kill a mini krugg, its so easily dodged or avoided. People usually just step on them cause they have so little impact. Why shouldnt they? Youll have healed the dmg it die in 5 sec. Nidalee may have been broken in the past but alot changed. Due to the nerfs shes gotten in the past she only performs well in the right hands but basically useless on everyone else, having a high skillcap is not a bad thing but Unlike riven and yasuo theres no average play on Nidalee you're either good or your trash. Even now when teams in lcs coups benefit from early game ap junglers theyre just not willing to pick her at all. Can riot stop giving her the cold shoulder.

I've gotten responses from them about helping her out in lane but they seem to think she needs drastic changes and don't have the time for her :/ Would love for them to just revert her back to before 5.2 and retry with jungle nidalee so lane nidalee doesn't have to suffer.

Did they define drastic changes? Like mini rework or full VGU?

"larger scope changes" Is the exact quote. I don't remember the other responses off the top of my head.

That sounds like a mini rework. Though to be honest Nidalee's looks imo have not held up super well and her voice work even less so. I doubt they want to give her new animations since if I had to guess, she would be on the rework list in a year or two. More than likely it will be altering how her kit currently works. I think part of the issue is that she fails to have a solid identity. She is this weird assassin/DPS/Support hybrid. She has the nuke combo, but she also has a pretty big attack speed steroid, but also a situationally really big heal. And what is her theme? A predator? A hunter? Isn't that Rengars theme too? She just suffers I think from more than a few issues and could use a decent amount of cleaning up.

Honestly she was fine before they forced her into the jungle. She could either be an ap assasin mid or a dueling bruiser top the problem is she just became way to op in the jungle and they didn't deal with it properly at the time. She doesn't really need another rework the first one was fine and like I said before they just need to revert and retry with her as a jungler but properly nerf her this time.

I suppose, I still just hate her visuals. She has some gnarly potential but some of her model just bothers me.

i wish she was more tanky at the cost of some damage.. i'm forced to queue dodge when someone locks in nidalee, because it never ends well when she is always cced or bursted down instantly, her kit doesn't work unless their enemies are unexperienced however it's always your ally team with the worst people..

That woud be possible if overgrowth waant a rune only Sion and mundo took. Unlucky that riot wont change the rune to how it was when it first got introduced.
