The optimal clearing route includes:

  • Start at Raptors (Blue side)
  • Clear Krugs and Red Brambleback
  • Move to Wolves and Blue Sentinel
  • Finish with Gromp

Key advantages of this clear:

  • Completes in just three minutes
  • Enables early ganking opportunities
  • Allows counter-jungling
  • Creates time for Rift Scuttler and Voidgrubs control

Current competitive status:

  • Top 5 jungle pick in LCK Cup with highest KDA
  • 6.5 KDA in LPL 2025 Split One
  • Underutilized in European and Americas regions
  • Considered a high-skill ceiling champion

For mastering Nidalee, study Kim "Canyon" Geon-bu's gameplay, currently Gen.G's mid-laner. With Fearless Drafts becoming more common, expect to see Nidalee's presence grow in competitive play.
