Holy hell she takes a lot of micromanaging to clear the jungle to the best of her ability. I knew she was a bit tricky (especially after the root was removed) but was taken by surprise when I went nidalee last game.
If it wasn't for me looking up a quick guide before going into the game I would've struggled pretty hard in the beginning. It just goes to show how useful just knowing a little bit about a champion before queuing up can be
Narvuntien1 votesYeah, that first clear is a struggle if the leash isn't perfect.
I found I really prefer the Spear start and not the traps start, the 6.11 nerfs make me think the spear start might be the best option from now on, without being able to constantly use pounce to clear the jungle.
Still I am pretty bad for the time being.
Also your team starts to get annoyed when all you do is throw spears and run away once the teamfights start.
Slythion1 votesI usually throw a spear and jump in/out before cc can be applied (but that's only from one game's experience when they had a Sion causing mayhem for them). I got a pretty decent lead and was able to dish out some damage.
I can see how those 6.11 changes could really hurt her, that first clear is going to take forever and hurt a lot...maybe a spear start would be better for the first camp

Spear start has the highest win rate and I personally prefer it
