If its not a mechanic to be able to hide your body behind a tower or Nash. Then it shouldn't be a mechanic to block a lantern with a body.

I died so often when i could've been saved by a lantern. If you want to hinder someone from taking a lantern then you need cc. If you don't have any CC then you shouldn't be surprised that someone takes the exit. I think its kind of lame that a Champion ability is nullified so easily.

If i'm missing a trick to clicking it i would absolutely love if you shared it with me. Maybe i'm just bad.

Also here an old Post where i described a Utility Only Key that would solve this: https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/gameplay-balance/gevaLRvH-target-utility-only-key

How to fix lantern's problem without having to zoom in to prevent the bodyblock: if you're in range to be picked up by the lantern, just make possible to click thresh himself and get dragged away. Literally 0 problems, ez game, ez life.

I'll wait for the paycheck riot, anytime.

Lol no, Thresh overloaded as it is. This is a counter to his bullshit.

Just like we have an ignore non-champions button, there should be an ignore champions button.

Yeah, the trick to clicking it is to scroll wheel in and then click it.

Disagree. Currently there isn't a counter to him giving his allies a get out of jail free card aside from Poppy's W. Anything that makes Thresh lantern stronger is a bad idea, period. It's the spell that lets his allies play like complete idiots and escape with no punishment.

No, it leaves counter play to his w. Same if you were to throw a ward on top of it.

Frankly, I think the strongest get out of jail free card in the game sans fates call could use more intuitive methods of counterplay rather than just none. Its not like the lanturn doesn't have any uses besides hard countering picks.

I don't know, to me it's similar to how bigger, tankier champions would stand on a smaller, bursty-er as to soak single target spells and aa from them. I think it's fine as it is.

If the lantern you throw is nicely placed, that situation would happen very rarely anyways.
