She really strong as a bruiser Top lane and against some Mid laners as well. If the picks lack sustain and or mobility and have no way of counter attacking or blocking her damage they are going to have  hard time. Some counters to old Nidalee no longer counter her and some champions that previously didn't counter her counter her now.

Pantheon, Brand, Malz, Syndra, Jayce, Fiora, Lulu, Gragas, Kennen, Akali, Kassadin, Kayle, Yasuo, and Yorrick all counter her pretty well in lane. Some of them can still be beat and others will stomp you no matter what.

Renekton, Fizz, Irelia, Jax, Ryze, Tryn, Riven, Nasus, Vladimir, Rumble, Shyvana, and Rengar used to be really strong against her but now either get stomped or break even with a skill match.

I personally play her as an AD bruiser top and mid. I normally get 1 or 2  damage items and build full tank from then on.
