That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Thresh is just a grabber that can pull you to safety. Half of his role is technically outdone by Leona who has an easier time grabbing, is a much better tank, and has a much better lockdown of opponents from a safer distance.

Saving an ADC outright is no longer even exclusive to him anymore as Tahm Kench can just as easily get you out of a jam. And again, a much better tank and with greater damage potential as well.

Thresh is also generally weak against poke comps because early game he doesn't have armor or magic resistance and landing the grab is more punishing as it's only a half grab and he has to pull himself in. Taking all the damage first. If he doesn't have full health it's almost always suicide.
