Small Buff for Thresh
As a Thresh main, my opinion might be slightly biased on this but hear me out:
Thresh has never been in a spot where he's unviable. He provides a ton of utility and CC for his team, and I really like his passive which gives him free stats. But there's a problem I have with his passive right now which I didn't have in previous seasons:
His base armor a static 16 at all levels, which means ~90% of his armor is bonus armor. The reason why this is a problem is becasue of the revamped Last Whisper items, which give 45% Bonus Armor Penetration. Compared to any other champion, this change hit
the hardest, because it essentially means any AD champion with this item ignores more than 40% of Thresh's total armor, due to his extremely low base armor.
I find when I'm playing Thresh I get shredded ridiculously fast as soon as the enemy ADC picks up this item, and I feel Thresh deserves a small buff specifically to counteract this change, without changing anything else about him. This is what I thought of:
- Thresh now gains 0.3 base armor and 0.45 bonus armor for each soul collected, changed from 0.75 bonus armor per soul.
This change would not have any direct effect on Thresh's impact on the game, aside from its interaction with
. I feel like this would be a good QoL buff for him since he was hit the hardest by the Last Whisper changes without being given any compensation. What do you guys think?
