Why would you buy a Last Whisper on Thresh when half of his damage is magic damage? It's like building a Last Whisper on Nidalee.

I'm not really getting why people are hating on you so much, snowflaxe. To me this is a great build and I've been playin it for a while and it's awesome. Keep up da good work.

Try:
trinity force (+200% ad on hit)
infinity edge (+50% on crit)
bloothirster (90ad omg)
sword of the divine (2 consecutive crits)

300 ad base+
300 + trinity
450 + critical bonus
300 (flay passive)=
1350 on first hit

750 secoond hit= 2100. almost oneshot on all full adc. Just grab and kill XD

I tried this build twice so far in games.
For one, I carried the game. Q, combined with E, and using R in teamfights is just amazing. Not to mention I can safely gather the souls with W, and whenever I manage to catch an enemy, the damage is huge because of the E passive.
But I lost the second one because they fed the top lane (which ganked on bot frequently), and my support was having a horrible connection that he stayed in place and died without doing anything, not to mention Caitlyn is a hard matchup.

This guide is AMAZING. Simply amazing, I loved it. Thresh is a really good ADC.
The only real problem is mobility and range.

[EDIT] Three times.
One death only, and we were ganked a lot. The enemy team surrendered at 20 minutes.
6/1/3, completed BT but didn't manage to complete Statik :PP

I tried this build a lot of times and magic damage done is always really big on like lv 10 i was doing nearly as much (or maybe 80%) magic damage as physical damage. on full build it was like the magic damage was 20% of overall damage without even building any ap items

So I'm a newb, lvl 14. A guy calls bottom lane, I wait until last 10 seconds to see what he will pick, other 3 guys already picked. No ADC's. So I assume he will go adc. He picks Udyr. So we get into game, I remember this guide, I build ADC thresh. Was awesome and fun. bezerkers, static shiv, BT, IE, I felt strong. Had enough $$$ for Runaan hurricane all at once so I grabbed it, holllllleeeeeee ****ttteeeee!

Had a lot of fun, registered to this site just so I could upvote. When static shiv does crit, that's awsome

Having played around with this for quite some time now I have to agree with Exesian on the build order. Bloodthrister early is a must. Your inital hit will be slightly weaker but the follow ups and sustain will more than make up for it.
I've been using Hybrid Pen runes instead of attack damage and Pys dmg quints instead of vamp. More a personal prefernce. Slightly weaker sustain, but much harder hits once you have BT.
I've also been messing around in the trees a bit to compensate for the lack of starting vamp. I've dropped Juggernaught and Vet scars (Probably a bad idea, but it's been working so far.) for Butcher, feast, Spell Weaving and Blade Weaving. As well as swapping Arcane Blade for Frenzy (But I'm still not 100% on that.)
I just Find Blade and Spell weaving to work very well with Thresh's kit and Feast just gives the little extra sustain I find myself missing early one.
Also, Because AD scales so well with Flay, I'd get a second BT over Last Whisper if not considering the alternatives.
Just some feedback, do what you will with it.

Ok, so a few things.
Thresh ADC is largely based around 2 things:
Burst and Hybrid damage.


1) You get statikk shiv too early. You should get BT > IE then you check the situation, I usually get botrk or statikk shiv at this point (if enemy team is tanky botrk, if not shiv)
2) Last Whisper should not be gotten. You will usually do 230% of your damage as magic damage on first attack, and all other attacks you will have a 3:1 AD:AP ratio, it's just too much magic damage for last whisper to be viable.
3) Arcane blade is too weak to actually pick
4) In defence take +12% HP, not +2 armor
5) Your killer combo is not really a killer combo, more like an initate (which is only going to work 1v1 as an ADC).
6) Thresh is not a laning ADC but a lategame ADC, and you include nothing about teamfights.

There are many things I could comment on, but all in all I find your guide very lacking.
