Scene: Rework team office, 2014:

Designer 1: Alright gentlemen, here's the situation. Nidalee is a horrifying, braindead pile of festering garbage, an incomprehensible abomination of nature, a thing of such disastrous, malignant, cancerous design that should not have existed for even a femtosecond in all of the nightmare ramblings of every incoherent idiot sociopath in the history of mankind. We have created the ultimate antithesis to the human species, a feverish, guttural yell to the cosmos, screaming- "We are not worthy of existence, we live only to destroy, and humanity exists only to ruin and sully the universe, an unending, seething mass of filthy, dirty humans stretching from one arm of the galaxy to the other, existing only to play this broken piece of shit". It's that bad. So- gentlemen- how do we rework her?

All: Dead silence.

Designer 2: how about we lovetap her Q and then give her a bunch of random buffs for no reason

And so it was.

Riot, I get that you have an exclusive group of atrocious champion designs that can never get properly nerfed- Lee, Cait, etc. But does Nidalee really have to be one of them?
