About Elise

Class: Mage
Primary lane: Jungle

Why this matchup plays out this way

Elise is a mage, and mages tend to have well-known strengths and blind spots that hold up regardless of the current patch. Picking a champion from a class that naturally answers mages gives you a structural edge before either of you has even loaded into the game.
