Elise offers a unique and powerful option for the support role, combining high burst damage with strong catch potential. Here's how to master this unconventional support pick.

Core Abilities:

• Q is your main damage source, max it first
• E (Cocoon) provides crucial crowd control
• Start Q against enchanters for trading
• Start E against engage supports for counter-engage

Skill Order Priority:

1. Always max Q first
2. Get both Q and E by level 2
3. Second max depends on game state:
   • Max W second when snowballing for burst damage
   • Max E second when behind for utility and catch potential
   • Hybrid approach: Few points in W then max E

Advanced Spider Form E Usage:

• Clicking ground near you: Elise jumps up and waits for target selection
• Clicking directly on enemy: Elise moves in range and quickly descends
• Use ground-click method to buy more time in the air

Item Build Strategy: Focus on maximizing AP and magic penetration for one-shot potential. Sheen items synergize well with spider form Q.

Early Lane Strategy:

• Against engage supports: Counter with E to interrupt engages
• Against ranged supports: Evaluate level 1 all-in potential
• Against enchanters: Use Q for short trades in human form

This unconventional pick requires practice but offers strong carry potential from the support role. Success depends on understanding matchups and adapting your build and skill order accordingly.

Note: For optimal results, spend time practicing Elise's form switching and ability combinations before taking her into ranked games.
