As of 4.2 patch, i'm really excited about his auto attack range nerf. I hope it will fix his biggest balance problem: the insane dominance with his aa poking.

Thresh's engages can be deadly but not as Blitzcrank's ones, Thresh has great ccs but not as good as Leona's ones, Thresh has some good "peeling" and defensive game but still lower than Janna's one; however, if you put it all together and you add an almost insane aa poking it's easy to understand how strong he is... Thresh can basically adapt his playstyle to every opponents he has: he can poke low sustain lanes to death, he can engage all-in or he can just stay in the back; he can be super aggressive or just wait for the right spot.

I hope the nerfs on his aa range will make his poking much more punishable.
