Talk:Nidalee/@comment-4888212-20130301143721

probable fix to this state of nerf:

'''i think decreasing the cougar base damage, giving her innate tankiness back, increasing her jump CD and increasing her scaling in cougarform would encourage this.

=> nidalee deals less dmg as cougar when extremely tanky. => nidalee is less tanky when she wants to deal damage with the higher scaling (which would have to be AD now tho) => wouldnt hit AP nidalee at all.

if going full AD she would fulfill the role of a melee-assassin, and being squishy, if she goes full tank, she would be exactly that: tanky! and many tanks get some kind of motivation to go tanky, here it would be the 30armor/MR in cougarform.

if she would go for a bruiserbuild, she would get balanced damage and balanced tankiness, no over the top damage, and no over the top tankiness.

also, giving her cougarform abilities AD ratios would encourage a new form of hybrid playstyle on her, and riot always states that they want to have a high buildversatility. sure it would make her squishy, but her spears wouldnt hit so hard, and it would be more of a melee-assassin-playstyle, maybe similar to akali; so one could argue, somewhat unique.
