The Thresh, Braum, Lee Sin, Elise and Evelynn nerfs currently on the PBE are more or less just brute force design changes to try and get more variety into the competitive scene before Worlds.

Thresh is exceptionally fun to play, not too unfun to play against and has a modest success rate in spite of having one of the highest pick rates in the game, but he's been dominating the LCS, OGN and whathaveyou for a good while now. That's likely down to just how the system works rather than Thresh being really overpowered, but at this point Riot just doesn't have the time to digest it all and figure it out.
