Lane plan

Although avoiding Thresh’s Death Sentence(Q) is the best possible outcome, there are times when it is unavoidable. Respond when Thresh uses Death Sentence (Q) or Flay(E) to initiate combat with Prismatic Barrier[W] and Light Binding [Q] - Lucent Singularity [E]. If Thresh has Aftershock, try to deal damage with Lucent Singularity [E] after the duration of Aftershock.
