PSA: Relic Shield + Thresh is working as intended.

For everyone that keeps posting "bug reports" about thresh not being able to execute minions with relic and it's upgrades here is why.

  1. Thresh is a ranged champion. He uses none projectile AA's which make it look like he is melee and this is where all the confusion is coming from.
  2. Relic shield and it's upgrades only execute if your AA's are melee.

Now, the gold share is for everyone, but Thresh and other ranged AA champions have to last hit to get it to work. It's much easier for thresh thanks to his Flay passive.

P.S. As a tip for the boards use the search option before making a post as there is a chance that someone has made the report before you.

Also if a Rioter sees this can I ask why my Icon for the boards is stuck on the Draven face even though I am using the Doom bots icon?

its a shame that his point blank auto attacks aren't considered melee, it would add basically nothing since he can't reliably trigger the animation, but it would be a fun little tech.

Is this really happening? #bronzeboards.

Whenever I play Thresh I just build Talisman and laugh at enemy Threshs trying to last hit.

You should rephrase this, it's a little confusing.

"The Spoils of War passive is triggered no matter what method is used to kill the minion, but the execution aspect of the ability only works with melee autoattacks."

They should just get item 3069.
