Lane plan

Avoid Thresh’s Death Sentence (Q) by staying behind minions! Be careful of his Flash-Flay(E) combo even when Death Sentence(Q) is on cooldown! If you get hit with Death Sentence (Q), use Battle Dance [E] on allies to escape or use Grand Entrance [W] on enemy AD champion instead!

Lane tip from this patch's games, play defensive
  • Celestial Opposition

    You complete Celestial Opposition at ~0 min; Thresh completes Solstice Sleigh at ~0 min. You spike together.

  • Level 3: Thresh's Dark Passage (W) is 21s, your Grand Entrance (W) is 14s, so you're back first. Level 6: Thresh's ultimate 120s, yours 130s.

  • Ignite
