Guide to Synergizing Elise and Caitlyn

Tips for Playing as Elise with Caitlyn

Spider Form is most effective at finishing off enemies with low health; Human Form's Neurotoxin does more damage to healthy foes.

Elise's Spider Form and Spider Form abilities do not cost mana and can be prioritized when you are trying to conserve mana.

When in Spider Form, Spiderlings will attack the target that Elise uses Venomous Bite on.

Advice to Understand How Caitlyn Will Play

Fire 90 Caliber Net away from the opponent to close the gap or hop over walls.

Avoid using Ace in the Hole in large team melees as it might be blocked by the wrong target.

Make use of her Yordle Snap Traps by placing them pre-emptively to ensure that you'll have one off of cooldown during combat.

How to Play with Caitlyn as Elise in LoL

The Elise Caitlyn synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Caitlyn, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.

Overall, Elise sees a large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Caitlyn. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Caitlyn helps Elise perform poorer in competitive League of Legends rounds. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Elise tries to synergize with Caitlyn, she sees a small increase in her complete damage dealt. This change may signal that Caitlyn supports by providing protection for her to dish out more damage or that her presence on the team also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Elise is played with Caitlyn on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays without Caitlyn. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Caitlyn.

Moreover, when Elise plays with Caitlyn on the same side, she often receives a little more damage than when she plays alone. Taking more damage could mean that Caitlyn does a poor job of covering Elise in teamfights.
