Also, lets remember that she can pounce away... but it turns her into the champion with the lowest AA range on the game. Her MS when out of bushes is not that good, even with her ultimate up (Thats level 6... you need to get level 6 first) she stills pretty much a a ranged champion with ranged stats, her heal and AS steroid she can only use on her human form, so if shes on her cougar form, she cant heal herself easly and she can buff her self, also, if pounce doesnt hit you she cant do nothing to catch you. She has no CC, her AoE is AP based, same with her pounce.

Her traps provide nothing but vision and a small debuff early game, if you see her traps, then you will dodge them (dont stand in the bush, its obvious she will have a trap in there).

If you go AP nid, thats pretty funny, but really useless in my experience. Most solo top champions will dodge your spear 24/7 because its OBVIOUS and even if you hit them once, a solo top champion is usually tanky enough to soak up your spear and has a good sustain usually so....

Your heal has a 0,7 AP ratio so its not THAT great because it only provides an AS steorid, useless if you go AP, still 0,7 AP heal is the only thing making AP solo top nid, something to consider. (Prelevel 6)

Your trap cant be used to zone out because the damage they provide is weak as shit, and as a ward, a high elo player will dodge bushes. (They dont replace wards)

On your cougar form your pounce can help you scape yes, but its only a really small dash with no extra effect, meaning that nidalee will outrun you on a long chase, but on a small chase, Rivens Stun and dashes are 10 times better. Irelia can dash to you AND slow you (you dont have a CC) same with Jax (stun) or even katarina. They all have long range dashes/blinks and because they are melee they are always fast, meanwhile you have to go back to human form to use your heal if you are being ignited to death. Shes pretty weak IMO, shes fun and powerful when fed but really inconsistent.
