Yup that's true. She gets out poked by most Champs on mid. Betr to play her top or in the jungle. Only ones who can fight her on even ground or give her a run for her money would be Jayce, Kayle and Urgot.

The issue players come with is that they don't gear her properly and as a result, her performance becomes unstable. You need to focus on gettin AP but at the same time you need gears that help stabilise her in both forms. So you need HP in both forms cos you're squishy as fk and get owned in no time if bursted. You need AS for last hitting and for your spider form to kick ass. ANS most importantly, you need CDR to help you transform everytime.

So in short, you need Rylai's and Nashor's asap. Afterwards, you can buy anything you want to specialise in either forms. You wanna do betr in Spider form? Get Malady. You wanna be able to nuke ppl down to death? Liandry's is your answer. Regardless of what you go, let me tell you this. Rabadon's is not as compulsory on Elise as it is on most AP Champs since she has a stable scaling on her Q.
