From the trailer actually gave more of an impression as a stance-champion, considering the three elements as the three basic abilities.

At this point, for how the kit is structured, doesn't strike as much as an Assassin as is as a bruiser, or at the very least a Skirmisher. Seems more focused on consistent DPS against single targets and sticking to them than the hit-and-run pattern of Assassins, plus the teamfight ult. However, which a double reset on W and its main function as element changer, would argue she'll end up building TF and IBG for the consistent Sheen triggers.

About skill expression... don't know, doesn't strike as too much though. Cast W, reset Innate and Q, gap-close with E, use R on teamfights or finish up a target with an overkill. At most is which element you want in scenarios where you can choose more than one. And as you mentioned, her potential lies within the jungle, or rather simply outside lanes. Though would consider the stealth an unnecesary surplus to the kit and the extra CC for Q a dangerous balance trouble that may cause issues.

According to Riot's intended design should be a mid-laner that likes to roam alot, but comes out more as a jungler that roams alot, as that way she has access to her elemental bonuses more consistently, whereas in lane won't be noticeable until laning phase is over.
