Nidalee often has a much larger longest kill spree than her counter does. Typically, Nidalee takes more damage than Zilean. This typically indicates differing health capacities; however, it can also show that the one champ has less mobility and thus is unable to kite away from further harm when poked or engaged.
In Nidalee vs Zilean matchups, Nidalee commonly totals less CS than Zilean. Champs that do not get much CS usually don't have to have much CS to be effective. Instead, they are capable of scaling well off their skills and stats alone. Yet, champs with scores of minion kills, such as hyper-carries, typically have to have a lot of gold to be useful. In either case, try to do better than the averages displayed here to do well.
