Thresh, The Chain Warden is a Ranged Support whose CC abilities make him a threatening lane presence, with a hook similar to 
Blitzcrank. His lantern can be used in very creative ways from simply shielding your ADC, to throwing it over a jungle wall and allowing an instant gank from the jungler, much like 
Nocturne could initiate. His passive makes him a very tanky body late game, as stacking up souls while building the common aura Armor and Magic Resist items will cause you to become quite difficult to bring down.
[edit] Description
| Lore:
|
Thresh is a twisted reaper whose hungry chains ensnare the souls of the living. A moment's hesitation at the sight of his ghostly visage and there is no escape. He leaves in his wake hollow corpses, their souls ripped loose and trapped in the sickly green light of his lantern. The Chain Warden takes sadistic joy in tormenting his victims, both before and after their deaths. His grim task is never complete, and he stalks the land for ever more resolute spirits to unravel.
Thresh carves careful, deliberate paths through Valoran. He handpicks his targets individually, devoting his full attention to each soul in turn. He isolates and toys with them, gradually eroding their sanity with his twisted, maddening humor. Once Thresh takes an interest in a soul, he does not relent until he possesses it. He then drags those he captures back to the Shadow Isles for an unimaginably dreadful fate. This is his only purpose.
Little is known about the Chain Warden's past, and many of the details live only in nursery rhymes and campfire tales. They tell of a sadistic jailer from centuries past who took great delight in torturing his wards. Patient and brutal, he used a variety of methods to break his victims' minds before their bodies succumbed to his grisly designs. Chains were the jailer's preferred instruments of terror. Their shrill scrape marked his dreadful approach and promised agony to those he visited. His dark reign went unchallenged until his prisoners escaped during a massive riot. They overwhelmed him, and without ceremony or remorse, hanged him from his own chains. Thus began the unlife of the horrible specter known as Thresh, or so the tales go.
Thresh now haunts the land, leaving an aftermath of horror and despair. However, there is a devious purpose behind his dark machinations, and the meager spirits of average men are insufficient. He seeks stronger souls. Only when he has broken the wills of Valoran's most resilient warriors will he finally have what he needs.

[edit] Competitive Usage
[edit] Patch History
v3.08
- Death Sentence
- Fixed a bug where Thresh could cast Flash while casting Death Sentence
v3.06
Death Sentence and its passive were providing too many benefits at early levels with their high poke, burst damage, and lowered cooldowns. By moving the passive damage bonus from Death Sentence to Flay, Thresh players will now need to think strategically about how they level their skills.
- Death Sentence
- Damage increased to 80 / 120 / 160 / 200 / 240 from 80 / 110 / 140 / 170 / 200
- Passive moved to Flay
- Flay
- Damage reduced to 65 / 95 / 125 / 155 / 185 from 65 / 105 / 145 / 185 / 225
- Now has Death Sentence's previous passive (bonus damage on basic attacks)
- Fixed a bug that caused the passive's damage to be consumed when attacking wards
- Fixed a bug where Flay sometimes dealt more damage than intended
v3.03
- Death Sentence is no longer consumed when attacking wards
v1.0.0.154
Thresh released.
