i have some issues about the inspiration runes and i think that especially in low elos minion dematerializer and stopwatch are better ..cosmic is good also ..

Although I believe that minion dematerializers have been set out as appropriate due to Thresh Players being forced to now buy Ancient Coin as the first items, (Unless you want to save up the extra slot for inhibitor minions in late game - not that efficient), I find myself taking stopwatch against all burst enemy lineups where I can be an easy target so yeah always feel free to change up the runes as you wish!

Don't forget to update your cheatsheet to the coin build. You still have the relic shield build in there so you're kinda sending mixed messages at the moment, haha.

Got It!

What can I do if I'm playing against a Lux support?

Always Play Aggro Against a Lux Support, Try to get a lvl 1 flay and aa combo to trade, go for an all in play at lvl 2, she will be forced to flash away!, I will try to update more on my versus champ matchups later when I can

wow!!! Sick skills!!!

Hi Lanternman (that fitting name though :^),
Now I can finally be sure that I'm buying the right items on . I played him a couple of times in Ranked at the beginning of the season, now rather in normal games with friends to practice more.
I also wasn't quite sure which Skill I should max first. Sometimes went E max (sorry bro), but more often Q max. (Maxing lantern second didn't quite come into my mind so often haha)
AND you also assured that taking instead of is better.
Thanks for the guide!
Regards,

Thanks!

Thank you Lanternman, i found this guide very helpful and your video/plays to be very awesome. Thresh has been my main for a while now, even though im still new to the game and in pretty low elo (im still trying to get to gold as a supp main ;-;). However it seems that i am the only person who likes taking windspeakers on thresh. I take windspeakers because of how much i shield/heal my teammates w/ face of the mountain(and the heal passive), locket, and sometimes redemption (and thresh's lantern). I usually go for these items, to support and save my teammates, and rushing the ruby sight-stone for the 10% items cd rather than going for all the tank items. There are some other reasons i like this style of thresh and was wanting some feed back. Do you think i should keep using this play style if it works for me or if i should switch to the meta of courage of the colossus/ tanky thresh? Do you have any others supports in mind that you think i would more prefer with this play style? Anything you would have to say would be great, i would love the advice! Thanks for the help :)

Hey, I used to take Windspeakers as well at the middle of S7, tried to max my lantern and stuff. I didn't notice the ingame differences much so I like to stick with the traditional colussus, and the now resolve tree. I really thought it was cool to go that so you weren't alone! Check out my new updated guide for S8! lmk if there are any revisions youd like me to make also, thank you.

Really nice guide! I was just wondering why only 3 glyphs of CDR?

I was just wondering why you are not making an ADC matchup. I know it's your adc's job to keep that in check but it will help. I'm thinking somewhere along the lines of matchup synergies like how alistair is easy to handle but then you have someone like vayne and he's probably going to be harder to handle. What are your thoughts?

Hello D.V.A545! I will definitely be adding an adc matchup to my guide, thank you! Also, check out my updated guide on Thresh!

why get Q lvl 1? I don't really see a reason for it unless you're invading. It's much better to get E first so you can poke lvl 1 and make a play lvl 2. It's not very likely to be able to make a play lvl 1 with just Q.
