Elise Starseeker is best used in decks that can cycle through their deck quickly, such as [[mill]] decks.

Strategy

Elise Starseeker is a minion with decent stats for a 4-cost card, and features a highly unique and powerful effect. By playing the The League of ExplorersMap to the Golden Monkey and the The League of ExplorersGolden Monkey in turn, all of your hand and deck's remaining cards are converted into legendary minions. Due to their high average of quality and special effects, this can provide a huge stream of threats that overwhelm the opponent, making it a great win condition.

Elise is excellent in a control-oriented deck, which already have the removal and healing spells needed to stall the game. This makes playing the Map and the Golden Monkey inevitable come late-game. Elise herself is a solid minion in the mid-game, and can help with board control against more aggressive opponents.

Elise can also be good in decks that can cycle through their deck quickly, such as mill decks. The Rogue spell Blackrock MountainGang Up can be helpful, since Elise herself doesn't have too bad stats, and added maps means more possibility of Golden Monkeys. The Map to the Golden Monkey can also be used as a combo spell if you don't have anything else, and three Golden Monkeys make the all-legendary ability far more likely to trigger. She also delays Fatigue by one turn by adding two cards to the deck, one of which has a card draw effect.

Be wary of Priest opponents, who can LegacyThoughtsteal, Mean Streets of GadgetzanDrakonid Operative, The Grand TournamentConvert or The WitchwoodHoly Water the Golden Monkey and use it for themselves.

If playing a The League of ExplorersReno Jackson deck, be wary also of triggering Elise's Battlecry more than once (through The League of ExplorersBrann Bronzebeard, copy effects, or return to hand effects). It will add multiple maps to the deck, disabling Reno's heal condition until all of the maps but one are drawn.
