LOL

Also I never made the attempt to compare Sona/Soraka
I said Sona/Janna because I know from experience that they are easily gibbed due to their low base health.
or something like that....

if any of you have an account I'd really appreciate just an upvote. I drew one of the pictures for this guy and he had an old thread with over 300 upvotes that got closed due to outlinking to imgur or something like that.

AD Thresh is actually really stupid strong... I've seen him do extremely well toplane.

I think the passive scaling on his Q is going to get nerfed pretty soon.

Thresh has a fundemental flaw which will keep him out of top lane, incredibly low base armor + no armor gain per level. If he every starts getting bullied around he's that much further behind then other heroes would be because his stats / level are incredibly low to non-existant, sure he might be okay if you're winning but when a darius or riven is continually kicking your knees out he quickly crumbles.

That being said maybe if he gets ahead through ganks / opponents mistakes he's like Kayle can just dump all over his opponent but I'm not so sure he's got the tools required to do so.

His passive is actually extremely easy to keep built up, so it's really only the first 2 or 3 levels that are difficult, and even then you just play like a puss and don't die and you're fine.
You can't exactly be denied souls either because he can pick them up with his lantern.
There was a post on Reign of Gaming about the potential value of each soul for his passive.
or something like that....

Jesus christ bob, just shut the hell up man. You repeat the same stupid shit every 3 posts. Everyone who reads the thread knows it's full of the musings of 900 elo to 1200 elo players. I don't think one of the 3ish real gold players in this thread have posted anything meaningful in this thread in at least 6 months. Everyone knows it's ridiculous opinions through trial and error at the skill of the player posting. Just assume everyone in here adds an invisible "at my skill level" to every post. Like honestly man, you just want to be an asshole and it wears ridiculously thin. Trust me, I say a lot of shit just to be an asshole, and it doesn't change anything but people's perception of you. Like do you really think by calling Zepher bad is going to stop him from posting opinions in thread? Also, how are you complaining about anything anyone says in here because they are bad, you've been 1100 ELO for like 3 years, and have been a horrible feeder in every game I've personally played with you. Bad is relative dude, so almost everyone in here is your peer or your superior. Maybe you should take some of this "bad player" advice and use it to try to rank above 1200 for the first fucking time.

lol calling me bad.
I have no idea what my actual ELO is yet, but I'm definitely not bad.

Also I never said it was OP wtf. Forgive me for thinking a 200% scaling AD passive is probably going to get nerfed.

Well, I didn't take the time to accurately count, I was just counting the 3s team that did it. I don't know if all three of them ever hit 1500 in solo before the stat reset. I think pretty sure we have more then just them though. Hindu, Mehplusrawr, Nuwen, Fate, Staeg, Ankamius(who is retired pretty sure unless he really did come back) and you are the only people to ever hit gold in Solo I believe. So, 7 tops, with probably only a few more close-ish. I'm not sure how many of them actually got gold in solo last season(I'm guessing only Staeg, you, and Hindu). My point still stands about none of the better players really posting anything worth reading though.

The passive regens really fast anyways

I saw him threeshot a Kennen in midgame with just a Bloodthirster and the parts for a sword of the Divine.
He broke even in gold with his lane too.

He shouldn't be able to farm if he's the AD carry. And i'm not sure how many people he really beats top.

He's a ranged melee so he autmatically wins where rightclicks are concerned in toplane
Plus his shield means he can win trades.

On equal skill he should win vs champs like Panth and Olaf since he can peel for himself.

I just want to point out that Q-ing an ulting, ghosting awy Olaf is absolutely fucking hilarious.

Thresh is not "ranged melee"
He's short range.

To clarify, Hurricane works on him, so he's considered "ranged".
