Hello my name is Xelnos and this is the first build i have ever made for league in the 3 years i have been playing. Among my favorite champions is Nidalee, AP Ezreal, and Anivia. i like just about all casters so i was rather excited when i saw Elise come out and instantly fell in love. The build that i have made seems to fit her playstyle nicely and works well for me so i decided to share ....you lucky peeps ^_^

i went with the runes i did because for her spider form you need survivability. ap quints, magic resist blues, armor yellows and ap pen reds. give her the survivability she needs as well as a little more damage.

I go 9/21/0 for her masteries for the sole purpose of making her live longer. she still gets the ap and spell pen from offensive and the full benefits of the defensive tree to ensure lane stayability.

The set of items as seen above gives her the neccesary stats to be a little tankier for spider but still be able to dish out damage in both spider and human form

i know a lot of people that play her usually go with her q first then her w but from what ive found is i like having that bush check ability at lv one. and extra heath regen when attacking minions i prioritize q after lv one and put points into q at levels 2 and 3 then get her e at level 4 if you are going against a decent jungler then i reccomend getting her e at level 3 instead.

i believe these spells are self explanatory. but ignite can be replaced with exhaust for the initiation/escape/gank

well this has been my first guide so please be sure to let me know if its any good in your future games. thank you for all constructive critisism.
