This build is for you to go solo middle.

It will work on top and bottom lanes but with this build it will rape middle and at level 3 spear if you manage to land one out of every 3~5 tries it will still beat bushwhacks damage.

AND NOBODY IS THAT Stupid to walk into you traps so please don't start thinking this is a troll guide

The 21 on offense if for damage
The 9 on Utility is for leveling quicker

This is where people start to rage because around level 11~18 is where all the team fights start
Max your spear first it will benefit you no matter what in a game

Have 1 on bushwhack just for warding.

People say you max bushwhack first for easier/more damage output. This is NOT true.

So the order for maxing is Spear>Heal>Bushwhack and you add cougar whenever you get to 6/11/16

Tank runes are the best choice.

If no matter how much AP/AD you have if you have a lot of armor and magic resist you wont lose a lot.

The runes are for early stability and damage. Alternative is (what I use) all tank runes and 3 AP Quintessence.

Doran Ring- HP,AP, Mana Regen

Catalyst- Longer laning and stability

Rod of Ages- THIS IS A MUST! Best Hp/Mp/Ap ratios for the price and help you lane easier

Mejai Soul Stealer- One reason. Because I said so and if you try this build you will know why

2 Rabadons Deathcaps- Most ap in the game. Zhonyas isnt needed because the only time you will go into a close range fight is in cougar form and im sure you wont jump into 5 people

Lich Bane- With all the items you should have 700 ap at least without any stacks on the mejais so in cougar form when you fight it will give you a edge, also used for pushing towers.

Make sure you don't die.

Nidalee has the best escapes possible.

1 Spear at 700 ap can deal around 1.5k to a carry

In team fight just chuck spears until everyone is weak and you are able to go into cougar without dying

In middle at level 6 just be SUPER SUPER SUPER Aggressive. Because when you hit a spear with a Level 6 vs Level 6 fighting a caster or a ranged dps that spear will take away around 200~500
And with that being said you jump into cougar pounce>Swipe and Q

All these elements will get you a win ^^
