Well, in lane at least, now this is just my opinion as I haven't done 5's bot at all for a while nor have I faced a thresh support, but Thresh is stronger in lane as a support, though his grab may not be as good he has a way of locking down whoever he's grabbed and it doesn't  cost half his mana to throw out a q. If you dodge a blitz Q you make him suffer for it since there's nothing he can do, Thresh still has his flay and shield to dissengage and mitigate damage. Also his death sentence passive to allow him to do damage at range. He can make any jungler into basically nocturne and gets free armor and damage, both ap and souls on his death sentence. Plays are easier to make with his lantern and he has better lockdown potential if he catches someone, leading to better ganks.
