@Riot, context on nerfing champs that have a win rate below 50%

why? i understand that riot is trying to lower ability to clear at lvls 1-4 with the removal of root on her spear against jugnle mobs.. my question is... WHY? the nerf to movement speed brought her under 50%, and now your nerfing the proc on it as well

why are we her root as well? nidalee has been under 50% win rate in plat and below for months and she just dropped below 50% win rate in master+.

there are currently 100 champion roles with over 50% win rate why are we nerfing UNDER 50%?? https://champion.gg/champion/Nidalee

Because win rate isn't everything. Her early jungle clear is simply way too safe at the moment. There is no room to invade her or catch her off guard, and if she invades you then good luck. All that's going to happen is that she is going to actually take a bit of damage from her first clear like every other jungler.

um yes, its safe.. whats your point?? nid is a champ designed for early-mid game. her late game is abysmal.

Nasus is designed around getting stacks and becoming an unstoppable monster late game Nidalee is designed around a very strong early game and mid game and that can get your team ahead before and try to win before she reaches the point where she becomes useless.

They don't buff/nerf do to win rates. They don't even like acknowledging them for the most part. lol. They've stated winnrate is not a good deciding factor on overall champion health.

Riot should add more damage on her spears to compensate

she donest need more damage on her spears, she needs % hp back on her traps.. that would at least allow her to do her other 3 roles again.. she only has 1 damaging skill in human form, and that is a very hard to hit skillshot.
