How to counter Nidalee

Nidalee is a poke-and-execute jungler who punishes from range with her spear in human form and finishes wounded targets with her cougar burst, plus she is very mobile. Her weakness is that she's squishy and her poke is dodgeable, so you stop her with tanks that endure her poke, control her, or block her spear.

  • Sejuani — Tanky and full of crowd control, she tanks her poke and chains her; Nidalee can't poke a tank to death.
  • Zac — Tanky and with lots of crowd control, he tanks her poke and out-scales her into teamfights.
