Elise's Spiderlings' Reliability (Give em some hops!)

OyddAWqJ5r··90 votes·3,365 views

Is nonexistant. Since they require being directly on the opponent but die almost instantly in a fight anyway. http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130929122750/leagueoflegends/images/c/c1/Spider_Swarm.png So I propose that spiderlings have a mini-Venomous Bite style attack (Elise Spider Form Q) as their basic attack animation (and give them more range with it).


Edit! One more thing! As many have said they do hop with her during her Q -however- they do not attack with her, they simply reposition and half the time that means they won't be hitting the target. So as another suggestion I'd say the little guys (n gals) should be allowed to perform their attack with her when she Q's. It'd be a spider mini-version of Syndra ult! http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130929122747/leagueoflegends/images/1/13/Rappel.png + http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120830060519/leagueoflegends/images/9/9e/Unleashed_Power.jpg Let the spider flinging madness begin xP

It will never happen, because Riot is scared of Spiders.

Skittering frenzy gives them a hop-attack for the duration?

ChaosThief5 votes

That would be both adorable and terrifying.

Aww, they hop when they auto - OH GOD THEY'RE EATING MY FACE HELP

Elise, we want to talk to you about how rengar might not be a good mentor to your kids.

Ahahaha most adorably terrifying thing I've ever heard.

It would be interesting if they could mimic her Q as well. A reward for keeping spiderlings alive as well as a reason to kill them.

I think they already mimic it,even volatile spiderling mimics it.

But they don't attack, they just reposition and then use their derpy AI to hit the target half a second later (since they still gotta scuttle a bit to the target). Lol

yea if they attacked who you rappel on would make them more useful.

That would actually make her ulti scale into late game. We can't have her be worthwhile after level 5, so that option's out.

This would be a meaningful buff of Elise, thus Riot will never, ever do it.

+1 for hopping spiders.

KoKoboto4 votes

Yeah, especially with most of the champions in this "meta" having a lot of AoE, it makes Elise even more useless Takes away damage and survivability with healing in fights, at least the spiders will be able to attack enemy a few times before dieing

Yes - I always wanted to play Elise - but can't because she's so weak!

NBA APPROVED!

Don't stop with buffing the spiders, buff elise as well. She is much too squishy and her mana cost should be lower.

Cerbearus2 votes

I mean the Volatile spiderling already does this, which is kinda cool

Davidt12342 votes

and during this christmas they also must make a poro elise skin so instead of being eaten alive you get hugged to death by poros!

Tayeus1 votes

don't her spiderlings and W spider already leap onto the opponent when you use her spider Q?

OyddAWqJ5r1 votes

They do but they don't attack. They just reposition with her.

But come to think of it, having them attack when she Q's is probably a good way to go too.

Buff Elise . Overbuff LeeSin so Free Win mains won't complain about her, not being able to Q her. Hence the Elise nerf in the first place since her end-season skin release. Tl:dr : Screw LeeSin mains summoner 3

Not the time OR the place, my friend.

Yeah, whenever I hear the spiders mentioned I hear how good they are for tanking skillshots and creeps. "They're fantastic, like portable fodder. Oh what, they deal damage? I never noticed!"

SoMNia1 votes

Definitely. It's far too easy for opponents to just walk away and avoid most of Elise's damage. Spiderlings are too slow, and just don't get enough chances to attack.

It reminds me of the scene in Naruto, where Deidara threw many tiny bug-like bombs that chased Sasuke. (Sorry for my English....
