s/d vs ele tips?

I’d say stick to your rotations. s/d thief works very well against bunker classes that depends on boons due to the boon stealing mechanic. The daze is always good but it takes a long time to set it up (unless you carry BP and you can do it quickly to interrupt) and you really want to keep pressures on them so they don’t get their cds back quickly.
So I’d say if you’re running the tipical evasive s/d build just stick to your rotation and keep stealing boons while delivering dmg.
I am currently running a s/d with 10/30/0/0/30 with daze on steal and bountiful thief trait that with good positioning and smart use of IS actually works wonders especially versus bunker/boon heavy guardians and eles (while it gets tricky to play against bursty classes, even though it still works wonders when you master it)
Stay on the ele and pressure him with IS toggled, for when/if you get knocked back/down and use flanking/larcenous in the right moments. Don’t waste initiative on cnd and if you stealth via heal/utility, don’t waste time to try to land a daze – dazing is nice, but keeping the pressure on him is more important.
Depends on your build. You can still achieve a 3 second daze in WvW so if that’s your build stick with chain dazing. If you have good initiative regeneration you can use flanking strike/larcenous strike a lot. Don’t just spam 3 though, you’ll run out of init and look noobish at the same time.
