Elise is a high early pressure jungler who must leverage level 3 ganks and invades to snowball before Wukong hits level 6 engage power.
Prioritize early river control and camp tracking to punish Wukong's medium invade resistance and delay his scaling teamfight impact.
Jungle Plan
Invade Wukong before his first reset when lanes can collapse to deny his scaling and force early tempo.
Fight for river Scuttle when your lanes have priority to secure vision and objective control around dragon and Herald.
Use early ganks and dives on lanes with priority to snowball leads and set up for early objective takes; avoid direct fights if Wukong is level 6 and ready to engage.
Danger windows
Avoid invading or fighting when Wukong reaches level 6 and can use (R) cyclone to disrupt and counter-engage.
Be cautious contesting isolated river fights without lane priority as Wukong's clone and dash create strong engage angles.
Low-health clears expose Elise to counter-invades; maintain vision and avoid overextending without backup.
Early game
Start with a three-camp clear into early gank or invade to maximize level 3 pressure and force Wukong off camps.
Contest first Scuttle only if nearby lanes have priority to collapse and secure kills or objectives.
Avoid full clears into Wukong who scales better; instead, path to punish his early farming and track his position for counter-ganks.
Power spikes
Elise's level 3 power spike with full ability access enables lethal ganks and invades; use (E) cocoon to lock down targets.
Wukong's level 6 spike with (R) knockup enables strong teamfight engage; respect this by avoiding isolated river fights post-level 6.
Elise's early burst and form swap grant dueling advantage pre-6; capitalize on this to punish Wukong's slower scaling clear speed.
Win conditions
Convert early gank and invade leads into dragon and Rift Herald control by coordinating with lanes that have priority.
Use superior early dueling and crowd control to deny Wukong farm and force him off camps before he scales.
Leverage early tempo to snowball lanes and force teamfights on your terms before Wukong can use his level 6 engage effectively.
