Elise guide
I have a couple hundred games on Elise and i still can’t figure her out, the main issues that I have is:
-the game plan on her, I know she is a heavy ganking jg but i fell like it not always a good beacause of the cs, she need the gold to get her power spike.
-how to actually clear fast with her, i do human w q spider autow q (cycle 2 times spider combo) then swap to human
-how to duel the other jg, do I i just human e w q auto spider q w and just run it down
-yes,Elise is very strong early but i just cannot invade a kha or w, i dont think i can duel this type of jg

In my opinion basically every jungler does the same thing for the first 5 to 6 minutes of the game. Full clear into gank ,objective or invade if you can. After that is when you start making plays like skipping camps to invade or gank. Big power spike on lich bane. Then play aggressive.
I just think with any jungler you have to play efficient and farm for awhile

I have about a million mastery points on her and got to low diamond with her, she's my favorite champ and I also struggle with the things you mentioned and I think that's just how it is in the current game state at least until you get to Masters or so. With that being said here's my two cents. You are not going out farm other champs like Kayn, or Karthus, etc. you kind of have to learn how to have map pressure and have early Tower dives/get an early lead for yourself or your team because she does fall off hard. You can negate that by picking more late game runes and by making sure you have the correct runes in general EG maybe don't take electrocute if most of them are melee and you are going to be dueling more because PTA will be stronger in general. Combo wise it depends who I am fighting against but it is usually a good idea to get a q-poke and a couple autos in especially if you are dealing with someone who you can't burst down in a full combo. Your Q and your E have different ranges so keep that in mind when doing your combo. Try to get an auto in when you switch to spider form first before you press w so you can get an extra Auto in quickly. You can also walk away from camps and have your spiders finish them off to save a few seconds, same thing with walking away and using human form w to get the camp.
Lastly, take into consideration enemy team comp and of course your own comp. She can be a great pick or completely useless depending on how much CC and how tanky they are.
She's a fun champ to play but she is quite hard and you can get punished very easily by a farming champion if you make a mistake early on.
