Guide to Synergizing Elise and Kalista

Tips for Playing as Elise with Kalista

Spider Form is most effective at finishing off enemies with low health; Human Form's Neurotoxin does more damage to healthy foes.

Elise's Spider Form and Spider Form abilities do not cost mana and can be prioritized when you are trying to conserve mana.

When in Spider Form, Spiderlings will attack the target that Elise uses Venomous Bite on.

Advice to Understand How Kalista Will Play

Rend is a valuable last hitting aid, since its cooldown resets if it kills a target.

Entering a move order once to trigger Martial Poise will not clear Kalista's basic attack target.

Due to her passive, Kalista's Move Speed is effectively increased by Attack Speed.

Working cooperatively, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to dish out massive AD. Combined, these champions can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

In contrast, by bringing Elise and Kalista together, you may not be providing your other teammates a great deal of crowd control. We recommend you have other champs on your team that neutralizes this hole in this pairing's abilities.
