The gank combo is human E (Cocoon stun) → Q → W → R (spider form) → Q → W for burst and finish.
Your E in spider form (Rappel) makes you untargetable — use it to dodge turret shots or key abilities.
Elise is an early game jungler — force ganks early and snowball your lanes before you scale poorly.

Playing against Elise
How to counter and exploit weaknesses
Her Cocoon (human E) is a linear skillshot with a long cooldown (14s) — if she misses it, she can't gank effectively.
Elise scales very poorly into the late game — if you survive her early game, you'll have the advantage past 25 minutes.
Her Rappel (spider E) can dodge your ults — bait it out before using your important abilities.
Place deep wards in the jungle to spot her early: she's extremely dangerous in ganks with Cocoon.
