Who To Main, Thresh Or Blitz

I'm pretty new to league, roughly 9 ish months I've been playing, and I pretty much main support (I try other lanes in norms but support and mid only in ranked) and I mainly play sup blitz. However some friends have recommended I play Thresh instead. I tried him out and he seems almost better than blitz. But I'm still kinda on the fence about who to main. Who would you recommend I main, ThreshThresh or BlitzBlitzcrank?

Thresh can do a lot more than Blitz

Thresh is just kinda better in all ways than blitzcrank. The effortless team assist with lantern is incredibly op.

depends, do you wanna be good at baiting? or consistent tankyness? thats really what it comes down to if you do a decent blitz build ( buying a fucking tear at least... damnit it frustrates me seeing a blitz with no mana items at all). blitz is good for picks, and better at baiting, thresh is good for utility

Thresh is stronger because of his passive, scales better as a tank, can reposition extremely well with q/w combo. Blitz is to easy to killSteal with.

Depends on your elo. If you are bronze, bronzecrank ftw

Stay with both.

I'm a Thresh main, so my answer would be something like "Stay with Thresh all the way :D !!"

But in low elo, there are lots of people that can't deal with a GOOD Blitz. Even I get nervous when he's coming xDD

Also, it helps you expand your champion pool.

So, both. :D

Thresh in every way is superior to blitz in terms of applying team support. Blitz is just far easier to use and to understand with an added strong early game burst dmg in comparison to Thresh. I'd say just go straight to Thresh. Their play style aren't the same, not even remotely and so you cannot simply play one to attempt at learning the other. Pick one. Thresh allows more advance team plays if your team follows-up while blitz provides you with more early game burst and stronger all-ins. Blitz is also psychologically more demoralizing to deal with than a Thresh if the enemy team's support and/or adc is bad. As well, blitz is probably easier to climb Elo with as a support.

Thresh is stronger but his hook is about 1.5 slower than blitz Idk this is true or not it is just an opinion

thresh, he offers so much more and he doesn't have to commit when he hooks unlike blitz who has to fight because he pulls the enemyright on him where thresh can pull them a bit and back off

Thresh is better but requires more skill. Blitzcrank is a worse thresh but MUCH easier. Your pick, both are fine

if you have to ask then you should just get blitz

Since nobody else said it, well, who do you find more fun? Being optimal is important, but you'll get more out of a champ if you enjoy their playstyle.

Thresh : High Skillcap, can do a lot from the support role and just a lot more than Blitz in general

Blitzcrank: Pick squishy target, make them explode.
