Max rank, 8 sec. Reduced by 60% if it strikes an enemy. Let's assume a modest 25% cdr from talents/

**2.4 second **terrain targeted dash.

What have people been complaining about for 4 years about Nidalee?

What have people been complaining about for 4 years about Nidalee?

The CD is only that low if you strike and enemy with it. In addition, Fiora is a melee-ranged fighter.

IIRC, the main complaints regarding Nidalee were that:

She could sit back trying to land spears from a long range
Her spears did a significant amount of damage when they hit
She had a ground-targetted dash on a short cooldown, which let her run away from anyone trying to close the distance.

None of which really apply to Fiora, who is melee and whose dash has a significantly larger cooldown if you don't hit an enemy with it. She can't really poke you down from range and easily retreat.

Mind you, I'm not defending Fiora's state of balance. I'm mostly just pointing out that your comparison is missing the point about players complaints regarding Nidalee and that you are incorrectly comparing issues with the abilities.
