Nerfing an early game lane bully/duelist's early game power when they have weak team fight pressence and poor late game scaling seems like a terrible idea to me.

Personally if they wanted to buff AP Nidalee they should increase her cougar ap ratios back to what they used to be and give cougar Q a proper AP ratio. The reduced both ap ratios and the base damages by about 25% when they reworked her. old pounce AP tatio was 40% and old swipe ap ratio was 60%.

They want to play with Takedown damage values I have a solution for that too. reduce the normal max damage down to 200% from 250% and have hunted targets take 50% increased damage instead of 33%. This is a net damage reduction on the spell in both iterations. 300% max instead of 333% max. Then reduced the cooldown to 4 seconds instead of 5.

AP ratio changed from 24%-60%/80% to 40%-80%/120%

Since they are moving the reset mechanic on pounce onto pounce its self how about increasing the cooldown on swipe to 6 seconds but making the marked effect reset the cooldown on swipe so it can be used twice and encourage longer engages.

I'm more concerned with the power of ap Nidalee but I also don't want to just gut AD Nidalee
