Hi everyone, in this guide, I wanna show you how I play Nidalee. I want excuse me for my bad English : if i say something strange, tell me in comments please. I don't pretend to be a top-elo player and I don't say I am the best Nidalee's player. I will show you what is, for me, the best method to play Nidalee. It is my second guide, you can watch my first guide on Ahri here : http://www.mobafire.com/league-of-legends/edit-build?edit=206583. Now, let's start with the positives and negatives points. |

SPACE | SPACE | This spell can help you to chase and escape easier. And ignite is not viable on nidalee, it's pretty useless so i take the best spell for chase and escape after flash. |
Skill Order
Javelin Toss deal insane damage and have a huge range, it will be your main harass method, so max it by level 9.
Primal Surge is very useful, it grant you sustain and attack speed so i will max it by level 13.
Bushwhack is nice for be used as free wards for your laning phase and reduce armor and magic resist, it's an utility speel so i max it in last.
SPACE | SPACE | Start with Boots help you to escape easier from gank and dodge skillshots. The 3 Health Potion give you sustain. |
SPACE | SPACE | For your first back, you must buy 1 Chalice of Harmony for keep harassing the enemy and get some magic resist, and the feeling of infinity mana is not so bad :p |
SPACE | SPACE | Now, it's time to buy magic penetration.. |
SPACE | SPACE | Give you AP and AD, because you got both ratio. but it's the better way to get a max AP in a few time with the passive. |
SPACE | SPACE | With that item, you get a huge ap boost (+90), more magic resist, mana regen and cooldown reduction. |
SPACE | SPACE | For increase your damage, now you deal insane damages and your enemy will be really afraid of you. |
SPACE | SPACE | With it you can destroy and poke the tank easily and OS the carry of the enemy team, it's very important, Nidalee need more magic penetration than AP. |
SPACE | SPACE | Increase your mobility with that item, a good AP boost and again more magic resist for prevent to be burst. It allow you to backdoor and destroy turret easily. |
Laning Phase
In lanning phase, you are so bad, except a bit sustain, you don't really have good abilities to lane. And more, you are a bad farmer, so if the enemy push you, you are in difficult.
So, as Nidalee, you must unpush with auto attack, and then you just have to farm until you level 6. you have 2 escape (flash and ghost) for stay alive during this hard time.
Then, when you get your level 6, you must roam at maximum, and help your lane by poking and get feed, you can easily surprise enemy with your spears and take easy kills. More you will be fed, more you will hard poke in late game and become a real problem for your enemies.
Team Phase
In team phase, your job is NOT to jump in fight and try to get kills like every other casters. your job is specific, you must do it BEFORE fight, and AFTER fight. you just need to poke enemy team and do not be engaged, a support like janna can help you to do that. Then your team will fight 4vs5 but the enemy team is low hp, so they win it easy, and after the fight, you just have to finish the one who try to run away from your team. Really, your positioning is VERY important to do well and it's hard to play Nidalee well. And many of low elo players won't understand your job, so it's better to play that champ in a decent elo (upper than 1800 i think it's ok).
