I think you still failed to actually read Primal Surge but hey w/e. There are restrictions only multi hit spells if they hit multiple targets.

Thanks for noticing my fail on swipe. I took out the health shred completely.

Takedown ignores the defensive stats of prey instead of lunging at targets or dealing more damage. Makes sense for an execute and honestly doesn't add too much power but also allows her to deal with tankier foes while having nearly no effect on squishier targets.

I think you honestly need to take a step back and look at what is going to be optimal when it comes to leveling skills on this iteration of Nidalee. Cougar skills are ranked with human skills not ult. Her ult needs to give something because of this thus the flat armor and MR. It essentially gives nothing but bonus defense and a little movespeed.

Because cougar skills are ranked with human you are going to want to rank for the most optimal pathes which will be daamge and mobility/utility. Which leaves you with 2 first options W and E and leaves Q for last. The only thing you rank Q for is the cooldown since the base damage is abysmal and the mana cost is flat and trying to spam it early is going to destroy your mana pool.

This leaves Nidalee's early game with basic attacks and setting up cougar combos with Q instead of just trying to get lucky shots with Q. Later on Q because better at poking but also more reliable for setting up comboes because it has a lower cooldown. because you aren't going to want to rank Q first the cooldown is going to be realively high.

I don't know why you can't seem to grasp this. It's as if your looking at live Nidalee's values instead of this Nidalee's.

Having a stacking system like you suggest doesn't offer any kind of innovative or intriging gameplay for the Nidalee player and offer a bit too much counterplay for enemies in team play. you aren't going to be strong at all in team situations if you have to get stacks and all you are doing is encouraging spamming with a your idea to have her gain bonuses from subsequent hits with excessive penalties for missing.
