Well, then it might just be me, but when I try to poke thresh and/or his ADC it most of the time ends up with my ADC eating the thresh auto + possibly a hook while I have all my skills on cd. That's probably me being bad though, so yeah.
Still, I think those autos should hurt just a bit less maybe.

Also, vs Soraka, you have full mapcontrol over bottom half of river and your ADC shouldn't be behind in cs. I think that does qualify as doing whatever you want.

Maybe he's improved, and I don't want to shit on the team before they even play, but ugh.

To be fair, he should have less pressure on him since he doesn't have to play with scrubs like Innox and Snoopeh.

yellowpete is not wizfujin

My apologies. I'll replace those two players with an even deadlier combination of Daydreamin and NintendudeX


What are you talking about? Daydreamin was legit. He just lost his will to live due to the team he was on.

As somebody mentioned a few posts ago, he is the Lee Sin of support. Ironically, that does make him a god. There's a reason you can nerf, nerf, nerf, and nerf Lee Sin a dozen times and he still is one of the best junglers in the game. His kit will always be great just like Thresh's. The numbers on abilities almost don't matter because of the playmaking and utility they both can provide if done correctly.

It's not really that their character designs are flawed, but rather it shows how boring and bland so many other character designs are. To be fair, many champs in the past couple of years are better than previous ones, but there are still always the ones with a cohesive idea that play/look/feel phenomenal.

Well I think that's more because Soraka is rather problematic right now, at least in lane.

if you want to talk about amazing supports that have been nerfed a bunch and still get played like crazy the only character that comes to my mind is janna.

Thresh is a very good support that is versatile and is easy to make plays with. It says a lot that there's a lot of one-hit wonders at the pro level who are basically Thresh mains and only ok on other Supports. But I wouldn't say he's the most powerful Support though after a lot of the nerfs. I think that title still goes to Janna. Morgana is also top 3 in my opinion.

Oh for sure, I didn't mean to imply that he's A#1numeroUno. However, he will always be a great, probably top tier support, unless they actually nerf him into the ground just like they'd have to do to Lee Sin, because they're both gods.

Janna was pretty awful after the shield nerf (the one where the buff dissipated if you broke the shield) all of your peers getting nerfed 2+ times =/= staying good after a nerf.

also her ult got a fairly heavy buff in the downtime.

You guys really placing Janna above Thresh? I cant agree on this unless you play her like Wolf did today. I mean Janna can be a better pick in certain setups but Thresh fits almost anywhere.

Thresh is still #1 Support in my book.


I think he falls into a slot that means, based on most people, he is the best support you see most often. More people can play him competently at a high level than a couple of the other good supports. However, the other supports are more difficult to use properly so you see a higher average of good Thresh players. I'm definitely less happy to see a random thresh in my game than any other support, but I'd rather run into a great thresh than a great Janna, Morg, or maaaaybe even Nami. (Edit: Obviously this is a hard discussion in the abstract given so many factors that change from game to game)


2nd late edit: Having begun playing a lot recently after many months off, did something happen to Heimer recently? Anytime I see him in a game (although I'm never placed against his lane) he just seems to crush.

I never said I don't consider thresh a top 3 support.Just that his power isn't his 2v2.

You prefer a great thresh because it is much easier to followup on great thresh plays compared to janna for example.The thresh does all the work most of the time while the janna will give you the opportunity.

With the tools he has his power shouldn't be 2v2. But then he's still surprisingly strong in those 2v2 situations.

One of my favorite memories of early LCS was everyone thinking Daydreamin was going to be a downgrade from Bloodwater, and then all of a sudden #HookCityBitches.
