How to Play This Matchup
Power Curve
Alistar is strongest early game while Elise peaks early game. Play around your power window.
MR Priority
Both deal magic damage. An early Null-Magic Mantle or Mercury's Treads can swing the lane. Hexdrinker is also an option for AD champs.
Range Advantage
Elise has range advantage. Alistar should look for short trades when Elise uses abilities on the wave. Freeze near your tower and wait for jungle help or an all-in window.
Exploit Elise's Weakness
Elise's main weakness: Falls off hard late, skill-shot reliant, squishy. Play around this to maximize your advantage.
Alistar Win Condition
W+Q combo engage, R damage reduction, peel
Elise Win Condition
Early tower dives with rappel, cocoon ganks
