I really hope riot revisits Nidalee. I feel like they just chopped her kit up to a point where she wasn't on the radar and then tossed her on the back burner.

I had some ideas of interest I felt like sharing:

Primal Surge - While active basic attacks will apply hunt to any monster or enemy champion you attack 3 consecutive times. A simple change to allows you to get off marks when landing skills isn't possible.

Bushwhack - Current bushwhack is extemely underwhelming and pretty much only there to occationally proc your passive. The damage is negligable.

My idea:  Allow Nidalee to store up to 3 traps and give the traps a 3 hit effect. If you hit more than one trap within a window of time the traps do bonus effects. First off return the % of current hp damage(current hp damage cannot kill) and split the damage so that one form of Nidalee cannot benefit from it wholely with one build. The flat damage will be magic damage and scale with AP the % hp shred will be physical and scale with AD.

Now for the 3 hit part.

Hitting 1 trap: Flat magic damage, % of current hp as physical damage, marked as hunted, and revealed for 4 seconds.

Hitting 2 traps: Refresh all effects from hitting 1 trap, slows the target, and increases the reveal duration by 2 seconds(6 seconds instead of 4)

Hitting 3 traps: Refresh all effects from hiting 2 traps, snares the target for 1 second, trap damage is all dealt as true damage, and increases the reveal duration by another 2 seconds(8 seconds total)

Traps cannot be stacked on top of eachother and must be placed up to 200 units apart. Trap effects will last as long as the vision duration. stepping on one trap will not be very punishing but it will make you wary of other traps. hitting a second trap makes you a prime target for enemies and hitting a 3rd trap puts you in the danger zone. Traps become effective zoning tools that while not effective on their own become dangerous in groups. A skill that is dangerous when used right but non threatening approached cautiously and you don't need pink wards or red trinket to find them.

I personally also feel like her cougar burst should come down early game but go up late game.
