I have only ever played Elise top/jungle and the main problem I've had is dealing damage after lane phase while still being somewhat tanky. She does very well 1v1 top with her harass and spider form. Its just that AP bruiser items made it hard to deal decent damage in team fights. I mean you can go deathcap and she hits like a truck but then you die as soon as you go melee. These buffs should allow me to deal good damage after lane phase while continuing to build AP bruiser style.

The ignite change ruins the entire lvl 1 jax+red 1v2 blue side strat It also allows players to just spam Ignite on champions, slightly rewarding the casual player more than the semi-pro player.

no new champion none of the preseason changes? what exactly took a week?

They really should allow you to ignite dragon/baron/buffs in addition to champions. It's not a big deal that it makes the game easier for CASUALS (and pros, too), but it's a shame that the change prevents some potentially interesting strats or plays.
To be perfectly honest, I thought they made this change a long time ago but I guess I'm just imagining things.

I'll admit, I've used ignite on blue buff once when I was mid, jungler was dead, and I overestimated the ability of my champ to get blue at half health

I haven't played Elise but my experiences playing against her have been similar to what you described. Even if she gets fed she doesn't seem to hurt very much or else she just gets blown up if she goes glass cannon. Then again, I haven't seen a ton of Elise so I could just be against bad players.

I've barely played any Xin after remake, but do CDR and tank builds have to be exclusive? I've envisioned getting items like Shurelyas, Zekes, and Frozen Heart for CDR. If you were going for more tankiness do you think you'd forgo these items in favor of more health-focused items?
Yup. Frozen heart is great, Spirit Visage is good if you're worried about early magic damage, Randuins has some nice synergy with ult (you can ult, then activate rand aura and if you're fast enough you'll hit everyone with the slow before they get knocked away). Shurelya's is pretty much never bad, Zeke's is great if you'll live long enough for your carry to make use of it (not too common from jungle). If it builds out of Kindlegem, just buy it.
I usually run aspd red/quint, flat cdr blue, and armor yellow. Might swap some aspd out for 10 arpen, but I don't usually focus on clearing jungle as much as I do dicking top and mid repeatedly.

I for one am excited for the ELO reset. Last season I managed to win 14 coin flips in a row and shot up to number 2 in the 5x5 season 2 ladder rankings.

YAY they're fixing the final spark bug.
I'm not sure if it's a buff or just a visual change, but it was a very infuriating bug.
|
So every1 gets a full reset in elo for season 2? If that's true, that's not going to be fun.
|
it's not true, actually read the patch notes.

Yeah because patch notes make it super clear about what will happen to your elo at the end of the season.
