Basically, as AD Nidalee, you have to play really safe until level 6 and then you will start doing well. AD Nidalee works really well especially because you can use her auto attacks to harass well early game and hopefully get initial damage off in order to all in your opponent when you hit level 6 into cougar form. Unfortunately, only one of Nidalee's moves is AD, so we can build a tanky AP Item to substitute for it.

Farming should be relatively easy for Nidalee top as she is ranged and most top laners aren't. So farming shouldn't be too much of a problem and her wave clear is quick when she hits level six so she has split push potential if you build BOTRK

Pros

1v1 potential
Can out farm
Natural lane sustain
Roams well

Cons

Weak until level six
Not too much teamfight
Not many moves scale off AD
