Would it be possible to try some changes to nidalee to help get her back into lane? I have a few ideas of things you could try.

  1. Would it be possible to make her cougar abilities cool down with points in ult? this would help her late game out with out pushing her over the top during her first clear.

  2. Would it be possible to return her auto attack resets and put some type of modifier on her abilities to reduce her damage to jungle camps. This would atleast add a little bit pf power back into her so she can get better trades.

  3. Adding her auto attack resets back once she puts a point into her ult this would keep her really weak in early lane still but atleast add a little bit of power once you do hit 6 with out making her first clear to fast. Also adding back her resistances to cat form but only after putting a point into ult.

  4. Adding some power back to her Q when building AD and also make her Cat form Q adaptive so that if you are building AD it does physical damage but if you build AP it does magic damage. This would get rid of the hybrid damage problem that riot doesn't seem to like and it would open up more item choices for AD nidalee. She could build things like black cleaver and items that give lethality.

  5. just straight up buffing the base damages of her abilities to help both AD and AP nidalee but either remove her hunt passive working on jungle camps or again adding some type of modifier that reduces how much damage she does to jungle camps so it balances out.

Currently nidalee has a very weak early game and even in the past she has had bad early game but made up for it with good mid or late game. However right now she doesn't have a good late or mid game to make up for the weakness of a weak early game and she doesn't have a good early game to make up for the lack of mid and late game.

She simply can't trade with most champion as AD or AP in either Top or mid lane and she doesn't have a kit that lets her play passively and farm up. Even if she could passively farm up she doesn't have the scaling to be useful later in the game regardless.

Anyway i just really want to see nidalee return to lane again. I'm not asking for her to return to the times of just one shotting people with spears as AP nidalee pre rework and I'm not asking for her to return to that short state she had in top lane when she bullied inexperienced players really badly. I think she was in a really good spot after she got those nerfs to target her top lane and before she was changed to have her passive work on jungle camps. That is the nidalee I would like to return to for lane.
