Your guide meets expectations in every way, so the one constructive criticism that I can offer you is to aim above expectations, particularly when it comes to the look and field. Thanks for making this.

This is a pretty good guide, the build is great, and I like the runes and masteries. However, I beleive that nidalee has far more counters than just syndra, orianna and twisted fate. Pretty much everyone beats nidalee early game due to her terrible early game (pre 6).

The point of a guide is to teach others your playstyle and give reasons for it. Your reasoning so far has been "it works for me". That's what makes this a terrible guide. Also blanket statements like "i don't miss my spears" are just awful. I'm sure you've missed plenty of spears, and besides this guide is intended for players who aren't necessarily going to hit every spear. Anyway I'm not going to fret over the runes. They're a minor part.

Bushwhack is pretty much universally regarded as the best start on nidalee. Your logic of "i dont miss spears" isn't going to cut it. Give a real reason.

Liandry's Torment is a lot of gold invested for just spell pen. The DoT isn't that great especially after you massively chunk someone with a spear.

-1 from me, mainly because you couldn't come up any real explanations other than "this is the way I play, deal with it", but also a **** attitude with blanket statements that probably arent true like "i land every spear" and "carry every game"

1. As i mentioned it's my first guide i've ever created :P.

2. The magic pen runes i use are enough.. You don't need any ad runes as i explained the style of nidalee i play. I use spears and i don't miss. Once again the reason i have magic pen reds is becuase i start with a dorans ring, therefor my spears do not deal little damage, they hit for 100 hp per hit.

3. I simply prefer it. There is no special explanation to it, i simply think there is nothing else i could use instead of that ( which will help me a bit in the early game).

4. Bushwack sucks. I use spears for trading. As i mentioned before i hit the opponent while he needs to hit a cs and therefor i do not miss him.

5. Landry's is needed heavily as your latest core item. With the little bit of extra magic pen and the damage overtime you can oneshot any adc who felt behind early game (this means he didn't get any defensive items). I've oneshot many supports/adcs.

I think i know what i'm talking about when i made the guide. I will not be convinced by anyone that has something to say about my nidalee playstyle since i have carried every single game when i played nidalee. So what i want to say i wouldn't even care if you would be a challenger nida main, you couldn't convince me. I don't care what other people have to say. Just because some people suck with nida and therefor downvote it..Well good luck.

TL;DR

I don't care what people think is better for her since i'm pretty sure i already know.

A number of issues with this guide:

1) first the coding is horrendous and layout is pretty bad, I can get around that as long as the information is good, some people can't get over a poor layout so you may want to consider adjusting it and adding some coding.

2) Full magic pen reds are pretty bad, especially since you rely on your auto-attacks early so much. Dual-pen reds would be a lot better if not just straight AD.

3) You put 3 points in Expanded Mind as opposed to Mastermind , I would actually invert it. Flash is very strong on nidalee, and really what is extra mana going to provide for you other than a small amount of bonus AP from Seraph's Embrace

4) You should start Bushwhack at level 1 if not heal. Javelin Toss is among the worst starts possible, it does minimal damage, like comparable to your auto attacks. Bushwhack is not only to avoid getting ganked, it's also to scout to make sure the enemy doesn't invade, plus it's pretty helpful to your jungle if you trap his buff upon leashing, far more than the 60-80 damage Javelin Toss will do.

5) Liandry's Torment should not be considered core. I think it's fine as a situational item, but the actual DoT will be quite weak for Nidalee. I'm not so sure about a Doran's Ring start, I haven't tried it enough to know, I feel like Faerie Charm with health pots is still better, because the early AP doesn't really do anything for Nid. Possibly worth considering Chalice of Harmony/ Athene's Unholy Grail.


Anyway, possibly you could give some explanation's to your choices

i liked the guide, i was curious about your thoughts including iceborn gauntlets over lichbane, something i have seen some high elo players using, all in all a very good guide
