max W or E or do them simultaneously. You max E for the greater slow magnitude and W for the greater shield value.

There are more ways to play Thresh than simply "Lemme try to hook you, whoops missed! Better wait for it to cool down and try again" just like how that wasn't the only way to play Blitz.

Initiating with the shield allows you to go in with an HP advantage which allows you to harass safely OR fish for the support's CC.
