The Vi versus Nidalee matchup in the jungle is favorable with proper positioning. Use your statistical advantage and prevent the opponent from realizing their potential.
Except for rare builds, Vi deals physical damage. Focus on eliminating enemy carries. Meanwhile, Nidalee deals primarily magic damage (84.36%), additional magic resistance may be required.
Consider the farming superiority demonstrated by Nidalee, ranking 44th (versus 52nd for Vi) in farming efficiency among champions in this role. This means the opponent can build gold advantages more quickly. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.8 versus 2.5) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.
Despite the statistical advantage in the matchup, overconfidence can be the main mistake. It is important for the Vi player to maintain constant pressure on Nidalee, not allowing the opponent to safely scale up, and actively use the advantage gained to help their team.
