Elise Build
the Spider Queen
Elise is a deadly predator who dwells in a shuttered, lightless palace, deep within the oldest city of Noxus. Once mortal, she was the mistress of a powerful house, but the bite of a vile demigod transformed her into something beautiful, yet utterly inhuman—a spider-like creature, drawing unsuspecting prey into her web. To maintain her eternal youth, Elise now prefers to feed upon the naive and the faithless, and there are few who can resist her seductions.
The most played Elise Jungle build on patch 26.21 runs Dark Harvest with Cheap Shot, Grisly Mementos and Relentless Hunter, plus Coup de Grace and Triumph from the secondary tree. Take Smite and Flash. Start with Scorchclaw Pup and Health Potion, then build Lich Bane, Sorcerer's Shoes and Shadowflame, followed by Zhonya's Hourglass, Rabadon's Deathcap and Void Staff. Max Q (Neurotoxin / Venomous Bite) first, then W (Volatile Spiderling / Skittering Frenzy), then E (Cocoon / Rappel). It has a 50.7% win rate and a 2.5% pick rate.
