Thanks for the post! I'm glad to have a little bit of attention on my guide. Thanks for the tips and I'll explain a couple of things I chose and the reasoning behind it:
- I listed flash as a good alternative to ignite, and I tend to switch it up depending on who I'm going against. For example if it's someone who has a hard time early, I would end up taking ignite to secure some kills (mostly because I try to rely on positioning to not have to escape.) I usually take flash against some really strong tower divers and really tanky champions. Hopefully I won't be going against them as Nidalee anyways
- My rune page was mainly for people who might be new and don't have the IP to afford a lot of runes. To my understanding, armor yellows are pretty universal and health yellows are good on certain champs over others. I'll add more about runes later! Thanks :D
- I'll keep in mind the skill order. The reason I had Q maxed first is because I get sheen first. I like using spear then auto attack to poke. I'll play around with other skill orders!

Thanks for the attention on the post. I'll keep all of your advice in mind for when I might update the guide again!

Hi, my name is Pinks and I'm a fairly decent Nidalee player.I have a couple comments/questions if you will ^.^

Since I believe this is a top lane Nidalee guide, I will base my questions off of that assumption.
  • First, please grab Flash and Teleport as your main summoner spells. I've noticed that lots of lower elo players like to grab Teleport along with an offensive spell such as Ignite or Heal. Please start using Flash because this spell is honestly more useful than Ignite because you can Flash and deal more damage to an enemy, or you could Flash to just not die. Teleport is the meta for top laners nowadays, if you grab Ignite, then you will have to force the fights under the enemy tower because the enemy top laner will not dual you unless he/she is far ahead or if you make a mistake. Teleport also allows you to support your bot lane or jungler if they are not doing so well, and it also allows you to help your team take control of objectives.

  • Secondly, if you go for a 21/9/0 style of masteries, then get the last mastery, Havoc . There is absolutely no reason to not grab this mastery. Period.
    I would also gravitate towards the CDR to AD side of the offensive mastery tree, and not the AP route. Hybrid Nidalee generally gains her AP from either runes or from AP that comes from Sheen into Trinity Force or Sheen into Iceborn Gauntlet. Bruiser Nidalee is known for her poke and AD scaling on her cougar Q, Takedown.
    Lean towards the AD side if you choose to play Bruiser Nidalee as it is highly more effective than a bursty AP Nidalee.

  • Your runes are fine, but I would recommend running AD quints over AP quints for the auto attack poke and last hitting. I would also recommend having a second rune page setup with scaling HP Yellows if you choose to build Iceborn Gauntlet over Trinity Force.

  • As for skill order, I would recommend leveling Primal Surge over Javelin Toss because Nidalee top is mainly known for her sustain with heals, and her annoying poke with auto attacks. I would only level Javelin Toss over Primal Surge if I know that I can kill the enemy top laner easily. Lastly for skill order, max Bushwhack last because the AP scaling and damage scaling is worse than the other two skills. There is no reason for this skill to be maxed before your Q or E.

  • As for your item build, mostly everything looks completely fine.
    I do not recommend buying mobility boots ever on Nidalee. There are lots of better choices such as merc treads or Ionian Boots of Lucidity.
    Also, please try Statikk Shiv one time because it gives Nidalee lots of harass damage with the Sheen and shiv passive.

I think that's all I really have to say.
Sorry for the really long post :(
I'll be sure to add any comments I can think of later.
Please leave a response ^.^
