Elise vs Fiddlesticks

Updated Jun 4, 2026

Overview

Elise is a strong early ganker and diver who must leverage early pressure to snowball before Fiddlesticks hits level 6 and scales.
Prioritize early invades and river control to disrupt Fiddlesticks's slower, farm-heavy clear and limit his vision setup.

Jungle Plan

Use early pathing to invade Fiddlesticks before his first reset, focusing on camps that snowball lanes with priority.
Fight for river control and Scuttle when lanes can collapse on Fiddlesticks to deny his vision and objective access.
Prioritize early dragon setup after successful ganks or invades to leverage Elise's early lead and pressure.

Danger windows

Beware of Fiddlesticks post-level 6 when his ultimate can ambush from fog; avoid isolated river fights without vision.
Avoid fighting for objectives when low on health or without lane priority, as Fiddlesticks excels in vision-denied teamfights.
Respect early invade windows where Fiddlesticks might counter-invade if lanes lack priority or vision support.

Early game

Start with a three-camp clear into an early gank or invade to capitalize on Elise's level 3 power spike.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority to avoid risky isolated fights.
Avoid full clears that allow Fiddlesticks to safely reach level 6 and set up ambushes in fog.

Power spikes

Elise's level 3 with access to (E) cocoon and rappel enables lethal early ganks and invades; use this to force Fiddlesticks off camps.
Fiddlesticks's level 6 (R) creates high threat; respect this by avoiding isolated river fights and maintaining vision control.
Elise's early burst and hard CC allow her to punish Fiddlesticks before he reaches his teamfight scaling.

Win conditions

Convert early gank and invade leads into dragon and Rift Herald control by coordinating with lanes that have priority.
Use Elise's strong dueling and CC to punish Fiddlesticks's farming path and deny him free camps before level 6.
Maintain river vision and pressure to prevent Fiddlesticks from setting up ambushes, enabling safer objective control and teamfight access.
