Hi ! Nice post , and a good argument to be made . I ' m no professional that the game only Plat IV , but I think I can offer some input as a jungler . You have great points here . Camille , with both her hook shot and ultimate , is debatably going to be one of the best assassions in the game with fantastic mobility , hard crowd control and quite literally the best lockdown ability in the game . She has sustain , traverses the map quite well , and can take good advantage of both buffs fantastically well . As a result , jungle is looking to be quite an optimal role for her which is awesome , which makes lining her up against our current jungle roster really important . Nidalee ' s strengths lie primarily in her excellent mobility and burst . Once she ' s on you , if she has efficiently farmed and played the fight right , you ' re almost guaranteed to go down . Her teamfight is poking with spears and setting up opportunities for her Pounce so she can wipe the squishies out before the fight can really begin . And in the jungle , her jumps , great offensive ability set high single target damage with a useful AoE , and heal make her incredible at clearing . Now , both of these explanations make it sound like they ' re similar enough for one ' s success to wipe out the success of the other . However , look a little closer at the matchup , and the differences start to appear . First , jungle clears . Nidalee is indesputably a better jungle clearer than Camille . Shorter cooldowns , twice the abilities , and singlemonster buff camps make Nidalee thrive clearing the jungle . And later on , her AP gets high enough to let her wipe camps out fast . Camille , on the other hand , is not as lucky . Her Q is fantastic , being two autoresets in one ability , but it ' s not enough early game . Her E can stun camps , but that just helps her survive , not clear significantly faster . She ' ll power spike with items , but that won ' t be until ~ 1015 minutes . Second , ganks . Here , Camille ' s likely got Nidalee beat . By level 6 . There ' s no question that if you ' re ganked by a Camille with ult , you ' re either fed , your jungler ' s there , or you die . However , levels 35 , Nidalee ' s still got great ganks . If she can mark you , she can stick on you extremely well . While Camille can stick on a target well too , it doesn ' t make her automatically better than Nidalee in that regard . Third , duels . In any evenly matched or possibly slightly disadvantaged duel between Camille and her target , Camille will win . Barring a crazy outplay , of course . And last , teamfights . Here , the emphasis is on how different the champions are . They just accomplish different things . Camille will absolutely flourish in the midgame and will scale well as a skirmisher . Nidalee will hit late game as a oneshot combo assassin . Camille can ' t poke and heal teammates like Nidalee can , but Nidalee can ' t set up a kill for her team like Camille can . They have differences . Then they go in for a kill they ' re just as deadly , but outside of that dive moment they have very different tools to set it up . Hope this was of some use . Happy thanksgiving !
