i noticed you had a jungle route in the guide (btw nice guide) and it starts at blue but it's more efficent to start at wolves then blue because buffs spawn later than other camps.

If you wanna see how play elise, just watch me, shes my gal. haha mid is the best for her and i usually just wait til lvl 3 where i have all my moves and i can nab first blood against near anyone without my jungler. i like to get abyssal sceptor and ryalis first for the utilty and ap. then the iceborn gauntlet pretty much guarantees that i can stick on my target til the end. a tank item after that and then topping it off with liandrys makes elise a force to be reckoned with

So, I got some comments. Elise is my favorite champion and I play her a bit differently than you, but always as a top laner and bruiser. First of all the first item I get is usually boots, MR or DEF, depending on who i'm going against. Second I get malady. After the update of season 3, malady got actually really awsome and strong, and giving her that extra atk speed is essencial. This way in early game you'll have a decent survival and decent damage output. By this time you can mostly harass or kill your enemy lane if you play well. My third item is rylais, since elise lacks the slow in spider form this becomes a really important item. Third item used to be frozen heart, and can still be it, if your enemy is a high damage dealer with AD, but I prefer the new ice gaulet thingy. This way you'll get extra AP, DEF, slow and CDR. After that her itens are mainly situational, if I'm doing really well and no one is really doing that much to me, I get the new mask for the penetration and extra health. If the game is tight, I tend to go for Abyssal Scepter at this point for the extra magic resist and the magic resist pene it gives out, also the AP. Or if the enemy APC isn't doing ****, I'll get a zhonya for the extra defense. This is my build, being Malady and Rylai's my core, and must get. My masteries are different, is 22 offensive and 8 on defense, getting extra armor and MR mainly and also some hp. As for runes, I have two rune pages for her, I usually tend to use flat armor or hp over the levels. Glyphs is flat AP, as well as quisstances and marks are magic penetration. I find that this way you cna have a much killer Elise while still having a huge sustain.

For Elise Mid i love to max q first.
Just cast it on your ememy everytime it is possible And then if you are oom he is low just change into spiderform and kill him/ wait for your mana to regenerate. ^^

I really recommend to review the jungle guide or remove it entirely. She is really squishy early game. I recommend to use atleast 9 defensive masteries, i prefer 12. even with 12 defensive masteries and armor runes you cant start with boots. Because you wont have enough health to gank early game. So start with cloth armor and 5 potions or health regen into philosipher stone.

A couple of things I dont agree with in this guide:

1) You say that Elise's Q doesn't do a lot of damage. That is only true if you don't max it first (AND YOU SHOULD). Her Human Q can take up a HUGE chunk of health at all stages of the game since it's based on the percentage of life your target currently has. And as long as you're not trying to finish an enemy with the Human Q, you will be wrecking a LOT of their health. I generally only max W first when I'm jungling. Not to mention, the minions can be a pain in the *** if they are in the way. Although hardly any champs can outrun Elise's Human W, it's still not as reliable as her Q (in both forms).

2) I feel like Deathfire Grasp is extremely unnecessary, since Elise's Q's (in both forms) do the exact same thing, and without a huge CD or taking up an item slot. DFG isn't as viable as it once was since the CDR was taken off of it.

3) A suggestion you could give people for farming is to last hit with Elise's Spider Form Q after zoning them out. This will almost guarantee you a minion kill each time, ESPECIALLY if you max it first. And for some odd reason, everyone I play with runs away from Elise when she turns into spider form. Must be some mental association with humans, spiders, and fear xD

4) When jungling, I generally take Exhaust as my summoner spell instead of Flash. I believe that Flash is a little overrated for junglers (unless you are Fiddlesticks). Exhaust will help you catch them no matter how fast they run, even if they flash. With Exhaust on top of your Spider Form E, there's no escape. *** I have noted that you put this as a viable pick, but I'm only reinforcing that idea and perhaps trying to justify it as a main pick :) ***

However, don't get me wrong, I do not by any means think this is a bad guide. In fact, I almost completely agree with your items. Almost. :) Your runes are perfect, and the combo is spot on correct. This is a great guide, I've yet to try your jungle build, as I have my own idea of what to build, but your ideas seem solid. Great guide, I'll give you an upvote, but you should really consider maxing Q first, it will help start and end the fight more efficiently and reliably.

yea but for example an ap yii own elise at mid lane, just hide behind minions and spam his alpha strike at u. u cant really trade with him.

i figure most tanky mid champs with no skill shots might be a problem

If you use the combo from this guide versus another Champion at mid lane, let's say someone with skill shots. If you manage to dodge at least one, then you can use the combo and the enemies Health will go down WAY below yours. It's a beast combination especially the speed boost with the spell vamp in the Spider form ;) I'll look into it. I've been extremly busy with tests lately.
