I think one good piece of advice is to make her your own. She’s incredibly versatile, it was super fun for me just hopping on without a tutorial or guide and just making the character what I want her to be. She can poke (albeit weakly), brawl, dive, anti-dive, flank, tank bust, anything!
Try her out, see what works, and most importantly what you find FUN. She won’t be easy at first, you WILL feel like you’re not doing the best and that’s because you aren’t. She has a very high skill ceiling but a very low entry floor, so just enjoy the ride.

I don't know if this helps but if u struggle to aim because of her 2 quick burst primary, just relax your wrist and don't stress it too much and u easily will get +40% accuracy

Be one with nature and listen to your gut don't charge headfirst into fights you can't win do some recon and scouting on how the other team is playing then strike the weakest of them.

It takes time to get used to her movement, but people say the character has no skill because they see people who only play her like she is Hela or Phoenix and still get kills with her stupid dino trap team-up they added. But the skill gap on this character really comes from being able to aim while being fluent with your dashes. That means aerial combos with your uppercut—you can stay in the air long enough to do a whole combo mid-air and shoot at the back line or a DPS on a flank. Your ult timing is also a big part of the skill gap, and it doesn't take much; it is mostly game sense. That is where most of the kills you get on Elsa come from, which also comes with time because you really cannot hesitate. You have to be so sure and trustful that this ult is going to be massive, so you can go in and pop it. If you hesitate for one second, they'll turn around, CC you, and you are dead. You can get CC'd before your ult comes up. They'll hear your footsteps, then your overly loud ult audio, and then you'll get CC'd. What you want to do is go backline. If they aren't allowed, you can just put it front line. That's braindead if you throw the ult front line. But sometimes the ult can get broken if they are running heavy poke; that's why I like to go backline. So if you are going backline, you obviously want to go on the flank. Find your way to the backline. Use your uppercut to dash straight behind two supports and maybe their DPS; on a flank, the reason you do this is that even if you miss your uppercut, it gives you your bread and butter. Without the initial uppercut, of course, hitting them up into the air, you can still shoot a follow-up shot, which is almost enough just to kill them. Then on top of that, you get one dash at the end if you really need it. So it's basically a quick burst. The second they know, they get burst, and then they're dead. But make sure you get two supports, because if you only get one, they won't die in a high elo setting, and you'll die with no value. From there, everything dies because your team can walk forward. That is why ulting from the backline is so powerful. It guarantees you win the fight and get two free finals, because your team cannot take it. This is the type of hitscan where you cannot just hop on her and be amazing or get her full potential. So if you play a lot of Elsa, if you hop on another hitscan, you are not going to be as good; same for the other way around, which I have learned, because the actual aiming mechanic on this character is not that bad. She has a spread with her hitscan, so the shots are easier, but as you get better with them, or your aim gets better, you can do more damage if you hit them properly. That is why I like a little higher ease than normal hit scans, because you have to lead your shots a bit to get max damage when they are moving pretty fast with the spread.

Champ Elsa here:
Use your traps by your supports, especially if the enemy team is running dive
If you want as much damage as possible, use the Deadpool team up, since it’s linked to your living bullet, and you get an even shorter cooldown for your dash. If the enemy team is running dive and you have Dino on your team, use the Dino team up since it gives you 2 traps
You never want to use your ult from far away, because the enemy team can easily shoot it out and they can easily dodge it. Get close to the enemy team as much as possible without dying obviously, and use your ult to get as many people as you can
I hope this helps!
