Nid isn't even OP..

My problem isn't that she's "OP". It's her mobility from her passive to her cougar form W.

Nidalee's cougar form W is always up. While Nidalee is similar, but not the same as Ahri, meaning for most of their kit to work requires landing a skill shot, Ahri's mobility comes from her ultimate which is not nearly the same as Nidalee's cougar form W that is always up. Not to mention it costs no mana, and as a short cool down, which is very similar to my problem with Riven's E.

Tell me more about how Nidalee has ranged waveclear and 3 long dashes. She has one short dash on a basic ability. Riven's E gives her a giant shield that scales with AD. Nidalee's W has a 5 second cooldown with a soft reset if she kills something. Nidalee's primary damage is a long range very thin skillshot. Ahri's main damage is from her W and R which automatically deals damage to targets close to her and it's unavoidable.

There is a reason that despite high play rate, her winrate is way above average. She is easy to play hard to punish and is pretty much overpowered.

I'd argue that spider-lady isn't a furry.

Elise has gone through one period of sustained viability and one period of being unusable. She's only been gutted once. Let's see how Riot handles her next time she's decent before we put her in the Evelynn pile.

Because Nidalee is Ghostcrawler's waifu

Because champions with "lee" in its name are Riots cancer patients that receive special treatment

I honestly think Runeglaive is the problem. That thing needs to be removed, and Devourer needs to be nerfed (it's so powerful that people don't realize they're having this much success with it while it's bugged).
