Elise is strong, but very underplayed

When I have to jung, I always pick Elise. I used to have a really good win ratio with her before I got into diamond (like 65%). I thought: "well I'm doing good for now with Elise because I didn't get to the hard part yet, I'll probably see later when it gets harder why people don't play her". Nope, Diamond 3 now and still doing really well and she remains my main jungler. My win rate did drop a bit (around 58% atm), but I still get complimented often for my performance and overall I'm doing great with her. I think most people don't build her right, this is my build (always, except when full ad): hp jung item, t1 boots, abyssal, randuin, magic pen boots, FH/locket depending on their team, last item either rylai if fed or thornmail/visage if need tankiness. Abyssal being the most important part of my build.

her cds are way to high, punishing her for any mistakes at all, and even when she gets full build there are other late game champions id just rather have. her early game is great but she just falls off and really needs to make that difference early game. her main problem is when laners see her coming and elise just cant get anything from the enemy team, and then she becomes "annnnddd....... what"?

I think she is still good too if you take the time to adjust to her changes.

I am not a big fan of building a lot of health on her though. From my personal experience building a lot of health/tank on Elise is very feast/famine. If your team is doing well, you will do great. If they are doing poorly, you will likely be doing to worst.

She is pretty good, but she isn't played much I think because a lot of other jungler's just outclass her right now.

Yeah, Elise is fine. She's just not easy to play, and, like you say, people don't know how to build her.
