LOL...damn that's a joke. Late game nidalee being countered? Late game Nid basically becomes siege Nid, then when you get people low enough, engage, kill them all in cougar form.

Late game Nidalee build is basically Morellos/Magus jungle item (depending if you are laning or in jungle), sorcs, deathcap, zhonyas, lich bane, void staff. And elixir of sorcery. And you take the blues too.

(80+120+120+80+70+40+Runes (I have 15) and masteries (22 at lvl 18))X 1.3 (Deathcap) X 1.05 (masteries)X 1.03 (Drag) X whatever else you have = at least 770 AP. 40% CDR. 35% Pen plus whatever you have in your runes and masteries.

You will be chucking spears from range, let's say they dodge the furthest ones, so average maybe 100% ratio out of 120%? That's a 1100+ damage nuke per shot, every 3.6 seconds, not counting resistances and penetration. Then when you get counterpoked, you get a 500+ heal every 7 seconds, which also buffs the target's attack speed.

I'm not even going to go into the rest of her kit, but just that alone makes her more than viable late game. With the rest of her kit? Lategame being her counter is a joke.
