I never liked the Coin start on Thresh. It leaves him so squishy and lasthitting with Shield really isn't as mind numbingly difficult as everyone seems to insist it is provided you start with Flay. Mid lane champions have to lasthit with less of a steroid than that, so why can't Thresh?

Face of the Mountain suits me well because I'm not very sold on Thresh's ability to initiate and just leave that dirty task to an ally. I spend my teamfights sticking to my MVPs like glue (including dumping a 500+ HP health shield on them if they get focused).
