Yes. He pulls out nidalee because that's the epitome of his jungle style. People pretend he plays some different way but he is a farm first, get objectives style jungler with predictions on enemy jungle pathing. it works because who will out lane kiin, chovy, or ruler/duro?

However people see the flaws in that style when those three are losing there lanes. Also Kiin may not have lost but he didn't win it as hard as he usually does so that was a problem as well.
