Thresh
GameplayThresh is a champion in League of Legends.[1]
Abilities
- Souls grant a small area of sight.
- Souls are visible to allies and only become visible to enemies if their team has sight of Thresh.
- The probability for souls dropping from small minions and monster on Summoner's Rift starts at 33% but adjusts dynamically to match the expected quota of souls dropped (lowers if above, rises if below, remains if even). Souls collected are not considered when adjusting the probability.
- The maximum amount of souls Thresh can collect is 999,999, granting him 749,999 bonus ability power and 749,999 bonus armor (99.99% damage reduction, reduced to 99.98% when hit by Last Whisper).
- Nunu & Willump drop a soul each.
- Howling Abyss differences edit
- Each collected soul counts as 2 from 1.
- Ultra Rapid Fire differences edit
- Gains 3 souls per pick-up.
- Thresh will track the target if they change locations.
- He will dash to the target's previous location if the target is too far away or moves beyond 2000 units.
- This ability will cast from wherever the caster is at the end of the cast time.
- Thresh will not tug if the target is too close to him.
- Thresh will turn his facing direction towards the cast direction only after Death Sentence's cast is complete.
- If Thresh is facing more than 90° away from the cast direction in either direction, he will turn to face exactly 90° away from the cast direction over the cast time, then turn towards the cast direction when the missile is fired.
- If Thresh is facing less than 90° away from the cast direction, he will keep his facing direction until the missile is fired.
- This prevents the enemy from knowing where exactly Thresh is aiming at before the cast animation is complete.
- Death Sentence triggers on-cast effects (such as Spellblade and stacking Force Pulse) once at the start of the cast, and once at the end of the cast. It may trigger on-cast effects a third time when casting Deathly Leap.
- This is because a separate spell is cast to prevent Thresh from facing towards the target direction immediately, which is (incorrectly) flagged to trigger on-cast effects.(bug)
- Deathly Leap has a maximum cast range. If Thresh or his victim move too far away from one another, Death Sentence will show its cooldown prematurely, preventing Deathly Leap from being cast.
- This behaves similarly to a tether range.
- If Thresh is already outside the maximum range when the scythe lands and the hook is created, Death Sentence will not be on cooldown(bug), however actually casting Deathly Leap will cause it to fizzle unless Thresh has walked into range again.
- Death Sentence cannot be recast while grounded or rooted.
- Death Sentence can be recast even while the target is untargetable.
- Only Death Sentence's first chain tug puts the target airborne. Outside the first ~0.3 seconds, the target is only stunned.(bug)
- Death Sentence will not stun enemies that are displacement immune or immune to crowd control but the target will still be hooked and Thresh is still granted the ability to recast for his dash.
- Thresh will not tug at all if the stun is not active on the target or if he used the recast.
- Spell shield will block all of Death Sentence's effects, including the hook as well as prevent the cooldown reduction.
- Death Sentence's stun duration is affected by tenacity but the hook will always persist for 1.5 seconds, unless the target uses a cleansing effect, in which case the hook is removed.
- Death Sentence's stun will persist even if Thresh dies before the duration ends. The tug will not occur as Thresh is not alive.

- The ally, while dashing, will track Thresh if he changes locations.

- It is
- The lantern's duration and maximum leash range are each displayed as a circle on the ground.
- Dark Passage is special cased to trigger Guardian.
- Since the ally needs to select the lantern, it would be best if it is thrown somewhere where other units cannot obstruct it. On the other side, enemies may create targetable units on top of the lantern to impede allies from grabbing it (i.e Warding Totem).
- Flay's effects start at the start of the cast time. Thresh can cast other spells once the cast time completes, but remains unable to attack and move and use mobility spells (such as Flash) until the chain completed its way entirely.
- Applies area damage on the ability and deals proc damage on the enhanced basic attack.
- The knockback's airborne debuff is set to last longer than the forced movement, but gets removed as soon as the forced movement from Flay ends or is overridden by another.
- Flay's passive's buff icon changes colors depending on charge level. At 100%, Thresh's scythe will glow green and a sound effect will play.

Sadistic and cunning, Thresh is an ambitious and restless spirit of the Shadow Isles. Once the custodian of countless arcane secrets, he was undone by a power greater than life or death, and now sustains himself by tormenting and breaking others with slow, excruciating inventiveness. His victims suffer far beyond their brief mortal coil as Thresh wreaks agony upon their souls, imprisoning them in his unholy lantern to torture for all eternity.

Trivia
- Thresh is one of 11 champions that have an ability that infinitely stacks an effect: Bard, Cho'Gath, Kindred, Nasus, Senna, Shyvana, Sion, Swain, Sylas, and Veigar.
- Thresh's name originated from the verb for harvesting (souls).[2]
- He may also be named after Dennis 'Thresh' Fong, who popularized WASD movement keys and is considered the first professional gamer.
- Thresh was the first champion released in 2013.
- Thresh was the first champion to cost 7800 on first week after release.
- Thresh and Urgot used to be the only champions classified as ranged tanks before having their roles changes in 2013.
- Thresh has three different basic attack animations (depending on how far he is from the target he is hitting) as well as a special death animation when killed while Death Sentence is active (he laughs spitefully at the affected target)
- Thresh's dance references Poi dancing (he swings his scythe and lantern, or his scythe and the lantern's hook if he cast Dark Passage before dancing).
- A side-by-side comparison can be seen here.
- Dark Passage is the eldest ability that grants an allied displacement.
- Thresh's theme references Rain Rain Go Away and/or Ring a Ring o' Roses.
- Thresh is the first champion to feature a Death animation on the Classic skin.

- If Senna and Thresh are played on opposing teams, a quest will trigger. This in-game quest consists in one killing the other to earn the opposing champion's stack of souls.[3]
