How good is Thresh as a kill lane support. He has range(granted it's somewhat low) to last-hit minions/harass at level 1, and gains huge threat at both level 2 and 3. Can variably skill depending on what his partner brings, and scales fine without taking CS. I feel like that's where he's going to be seen most, severing a Leona-esque role. The question is more directed towards bruiser+thresh, because he has the ability to bring a shielded angry melee with full cooldowns right up to a squishies face very early on in the game.
Leona was often used in kill lanes before, Leona/Jarven comes to mind. But Thresh and bruiser has potential, gives them a shield that lets the bruiser get up in the face of an enemy and then they can just teleport out after they finish their combo.

hey, just curious if anyone here on TL would be interested in giving some free lessons? i main adc at about 1600 elo, i feel like i'm not getting better and generally blame being camped as why i lost (i shouldn't, but i do sadly) i feel like i need a second set of eyes.
anyways, i'd be willing to discuss theory over skype, and if you would be willing to play some with me to watch how i play, or w/e else u'd like to do to help me, i'd be very happy. i'd be willing to trade sc2 lessons  as im a past GM player. or how ever else i could repay u, thanks in advance.

Ever since we get free wards from Sightstone I spend my leftover money as a support on pink wards. Just makes sense to me.

A few questions on Muramana here: Does it work with Twitch ult? And how? Does it deal 6% of current mana to all who get hit by spray and pray?
Also, has anyone tried AP Koggles yet? I know that it probably sucks due to the huge amount of assassins and gap closers, but is the damage potential still huge? Maybe a tankier build could work? (Tear+Catalyst into RoA+Rylai?
He's been nerfed after competitive usage showed him to be OP—first to his base damage, then to his sustainable damage by raising the cap on his ult's mana cost for consecutive uses.
(Even when played AD his used had always surprised me with the excellent base damage it had so that even played like that you could expend some mana to finish off somebody or soften the enemy duo before a dive. Noone really minded it till AP Kog became popular tho.)

Philo+Pick and sightstone for me normal wards make pinks very affordable. They give you great area control, and carrying a pink in a teamfight with an Akali or a Eve is huge.
Philo, Kage, Boots, Sightstone, Pinks... and only one slot for components/finished items after that?

Fairly good, but landing his Q on a champion is extremely difficult. The windup is so big I would be shocked to see it land on any pro player who had vision of Thresh.
What makes him scary during laning is more his gank assist with W, or the level of aggression he can support by giving his laning partner a free escape coupled with a shield.

I get my boots pretty late, and that leftover slot is usually used for Bulwark. After that I finish up Shurelia/Shard/Twins if I want them or sell the gp/10 item when necessary.
On many supports I'll have sightstone+1 gp/10 before I have my boots. I also run gp/10 runes, money in the bank.

As a sidenote, holy crap LoL is bigger in Brazil than I thought. 22k viewers for a BR qualifier,

really think you need a free spot for wards too, esp if your team is like not warding well.
3 wards cant cover all the spots you really need warded

It's taking the "must get the reset" to the extreme
