Elise's human form feels too weak.

Perhaps someone can explain why my feelings are incorrect but when I'm playing elise, her human form just seems weak.

  1. Her spider form has more mobility, tankiness, and AA damage.
  2. Her spider form has the ganking power in its E. I can't complain about her human form having a stun.
  3. Her spider form's Q has the killing power (human Q sucks if the target isn't full or near full)
  4. Her spider form's W feels better for clearing. In laning, her human form's W feels both weak and clunky.
  5. Her human forms AA is weaker, feels slower even if it isn't, and overall seems useless. It's definitely not fun to be standing back AAing as elise in human form. In spider form it's a lot more fun.

And to be honest on her base skin her spider form is a lot cooler than her human form's looks.

Overall her human form seems like the kit's after-thought and only exists for creating spiderlings. One small tweak to the passive (make it time based and the time goes down as you rank your ult) and she probably wouldn't even need to go into her human form save for a single human Q to start a fight followed by a stun with her E. It feels like riot wanted a spider only champ and then tacked on a human to it at the last minute.

To the people who play her a lot, do you spend much time at all in her base human form or is it spider 95% of the time?
