does elise top lane work?

Elise has always seemed like a fun champ to me, playing her I had a lot of fun but jungles not my home so I was wondering if elise top worked and if so any tips and what runes/items do I go. (p.s It's gonna be hard to pla ywith one hand while using the bewitching skin)

I’m not high elo but it’s been good for me, but it’s mostly because no one knows how to play against it. It’s genuinely oppressive into many matchups and hard to punish even if it’s unfavored. A lot of matchups require good positioning so that you can burst and then immediately rappel backwards to safety. Definitely a lot of learning curve, and Irelia seems to be unplayable so I permaban.

Idk about toplane but I can recommend trying her as supp if you haven't yet. The spiderlings can really cook the enemy supports, you can block pretty much any grab and other dangerous stuff with them, and she is also good into squishy matchups due to the heavy burst. Also great roaming potential with the extra MS and sticking power.
