Why so bitter dude?

In lane (2v2 scenario) Thresh would think twice before throwing his lantern (and ADC would not blow as fast as you would expect), and then would be forced to blow other spells like his E to peel for the ADC.

And also - champion size is a counter for his lantern? then Veigar ult is a perfectly balanced spell (hint: 80% of enemy ap as Veigar damage). You can counter him in champion select. I thought rito avoids this kind scenario lately.

What sorts of player wanted to be pulled in the middle of enemy team? Well... there are plenty of them. Any assassin doing follow-up, bruisers (same as assassin), juggernauts, initiators...

If tank missclicks... well - it's would be his fault. Thrown lantern is way better telegraphed than thresh's Q imo (and way more visible).

Random missclicking lantern ADC? Half decent one already bound his 'A' button into attack move.

Yeah - lantern is his strongest part of his kit... I agree. That's why it needs taking some power down from his W in favor for other parts of his kit to be able buffed.

I'm not saying it would solve all his problems - heck, not all ideas works outside the paper. w/o practical testing we won't be sure if some ideas would work.

Also in the light of recent champ releases (looking at kindred and bard), skills that work both on enemy and ally at once are fine in LoL for Riot, so I don't really think it would destroy Thresh.
