Champions the easily, readily or actively deal more than 3 instances of ability damage to a champion within the cooldown of Thunderlord's. I find many supports prefer Thunderlord's because you can perform 3 instances of damage and then retreat; but the current Brand support fad or any support that constantly harasses would rather Deathfire.

Midlaners follow a similar paradigm - someone like Veigar would prefer Thunderlord's due to him not really having the mana (nor his opponents the health) to continuously reapply Deathfire. However, someone like Brand, Malzahar, Swain, Fiddlesticks, etc, would prefer Deathfire.
