Nidalee Counters :: Counter Picking Stats for Nidalee by CounterStats

DesperateShaco says “Nidalee is a huge counter to shaco especially in higher elo where people know how to properly play her. Her passive that marks enemies allows her to see you even in stealth so if you try to Q away from her she can still target you and use her pounce to follow you. Since she also has insane damage and burst she pretty much wins any duel and even if you have the upper hand she can still just run away. She can easily out gank you and counterjungle without you being able to do anything really. Luckily Nidalee isnt really played anymore so she is not worth banning. A good tip to counter her engage is to ult as soon as you think she is going to jump on you, this makes you pop on top of her allowing to burst her down with auto attacks.”

Doubtfull says “Nidalee is a skill match up that favored Rek'sai. Dodging her spears while burrowed can be difficult, so sometimes I find myself unburrowing just for vision. You can cancel her leap ability with your knock up. If you flash onto her, she is usually squishy enough that your combo will one shot her, though remember that she does have a heal. She will also build Zhonya's more than likely at some point, so watch out for that as well.”

Doubtfull's Challenger Rek'sai Guide by Doubtfull | Diamond Rek'Sai Player

Hidon1 says “This match up is simple. If she can not get an early lead you stomp her to the ground. You have better ganks so try and counter gank her first gank. In order to do that get early wards so you know where she starts. Then expect her to full clear to the other side of the map, then do your best trying to match her first gank. ”

KamiKZ says “This match up is slightly Graves favored. You should ways dodge nidalee´s spear with your E. As long as you do this, you should never lose 1v1 to her, the only problem is her high mobility makes it difficult to kill her 1v1 aswell. But it´s okay to be even in the early to mid game against nidalee since graves scales better than nidalee. ”

Rhoku says “Very slippery, mobile and can potentially deal tons of damage. Very snowbally too. A Nidalee can take over a game by herself once fed. You need to prevent this. Dodging her spears is very easy but if you are on autopilot, she can actually reliably land them. Her only reliable way of beating you is through outplaying your Q and kiting you with her superior mobility. In fact, most of the time she'll look to try to take whatever objective you are fighting over and leave. This means you beat her in a straight up all in VERY HARD. She is one of the matchups I'd recommend going damage against, as you will be able to just oneshot her VERY QUICKLY, before she can actually counterplay anything. ”

Veralion says “Clear down. Below Diamond you probably don't have much to worry about. Platinum and below Nidalees are basically memes. However, a skilled and confident Nidalee will be in your face from level 3, hunting you down and stealing your camps. This is an extremely obnoxious champion to jungle against. Getting hit by a spear is certain death. Flash the damn thing if need be. Concede crabs, buffs, gromp, whatever you need to unless you have lane priority and attempt to path around her. If you can make it to level 6 without being put in a pit, you can easily gib her with your all in. She must retreat if she is taken by surprise and cannot set up on her target from long range. ”

Rek'Sai has a solid amount of mobility to chase Nid, but you'll need to start fighting her before you blow all your cooldowns. If you can start hitting her and then use E, R and/or Flash to chase, you should be able to kill her.

If she has red buff and sees you step away and concede the objective. Take nimbus clock and chilling smite and try to catch her moving in the jungle from the fog of war. You shred her if you can get on top of her and kill her before she finds a nearby wall. You outscale with most builds as long as you avoid giving her to big of a lead.

E in time and her burst is meaningless and your R and Q will heal you all the way back up while one shooting her. Stay behind minions and the laning phase will be a breeze, although she is likely to keep her range as well, making it difficult to kill. You can still die by getting hit by too many spears, but you can also regenerate that back with Q on minions. You are capable of latching Q with her W to follow her through walls which heavily counter her. If she goes all damage, a simple all in will be her end every time. ”

She snowballs well, can counter jungle okay, gank well, and has high sustain. This is a matchup that you gotta be on your toes for, but the challenge is not overwhelming, it's fun. ”

Fyurex says “Nidalee can burst anyone down easily but she is pretty useless in teamfights as she only has damage and doesn't have much health.Watch out for her jumps if she hits a spear on your carry. In early you can easily duel her if you take her by surprise.”

Xelaadryth says “Skill matchup. You can out-trade her with autos, but she can heal back life. It'll eat her mana quickly though. If she lands a single spear on you, she can wreck you in cougar form, so don't get hit at all costs. Focus on last hitting and try to land Qs on her. If she hard engages, you almost always are forced to ult and fight her.”

Doaenel says “Nidalee will always go for early invades, therefore you need to start on the same side of the map as her and make sure that you ward the jungle entrance on the side of the map that you're pathing towards. If she gets an item lead you will die in one combo, so make sure that you play relatively safe early game.”

SirZeros says “She isn't that strong against you, so she won't be a big problem, since she doesn't scale as good as you do. Punish her for farming in cougar form and do not let you get hit by her spear! I'm serious, it's not that hard to avoid it.”

Yuki H. says “A very good nidalee will basically give you no time to breathe as they constantly invade you and look to punish every small mistake you make. However, if the nidalee player isn't very good, her threat level will drop down to "minor." Dodge her spear and do not let her mark you as that is pretty much a guaranteed lost fight.”

yasinpg says “LUL. Go in her face during counter ganks. Teamfights will be like this: she jumps into your team and you will jump into her's. your team will kill her but you will survive and it should turn into a 4v5 basically. Just ward for her ganks, especially top lane. If your team does not feed too much it will be EZ LP.”

4by3 says “In a matchup like this, if Nidalee gets a lead you're most likely over. For the other matchups, them having a lead can fuck you over, but this champion goes to another level. She kills you so easily and gets true vision from her kit. Cheesy champion, if you watch for these things mid game will be a lot easier. ”

MrPuggles says “ Nidalee is a very very easy matchup. There is no reason you should lose this, even if Nidalee snowballs. you will always be able to 1v1 her in almost any situation. her teamfights aren't that good, making her impact on the game nothing compared to yours. invade her jungle and punish her for playing this matchup. Be careful when she buys a Zhonya's Hourglass, as this may get you killed if you're not careful.”

Intello says “Nidalee is an interesting champion. Her spear does more damage the further distance it travels. When she transforms into her lion/tiger she will hop on you and do pretty high burst. Other than that, you can easily EW her and kite her. She's pretty squishy so it depends on your skill. You can burst her down or just disengage.”

Xavier Senori says “Nidalee is super easy to deal with. You out harass her as long as you can dodge her spears. MS quints and T1 boots should help with that. Stay behind your minion line and harass from there. Her early minion clear is awful, so if you want to force her to lose cs, push her under her tower and harass her there. Late game your Seraph's Embrace should protect you from her spear, though you may consider a Banshee's Veil.”

Morzanoth says “Nidalee is probably one of the most annoying junglers to play against. Once she has gotten through her first clear she becomes a machine at everything. She will invade you a lot and you may struggle to farm since she can clear camps a lot faster than you. Her poke can make defending a turret very difficult as well. You can look to punish aggressive Nidalees by warding your jungle entrances and collapsing on them when they try invade. And if you can CC her once she becomes very easy to burst.”
