Yeah that would be overkill. You would render him virtually useless with those nerfs. He's countered by poke for one, his aa range is short, his hook is slower than blitz's he has less health than most tanks, lower armor naturally, and relies on souls to really scale through the game damage wise. Plus his ult damage is capped against a single target. The slow applied to others is strong but short too. Unlike Blitz who can completely tear an opponent away from the team Thresh has to dive in unike Leona who can buff herself with enhanced defenses and lacks minion problems with her Zenith Blade but has a lower damage output but more hard cc.
