It's based on range, not projectile. Kayle's E isn't a projectile but it's ranged, Viktor's Q-Auto isn't a projectile but it's ranged.

Same with Thresh. That's why he doesn't get the execute damage against minions with Targons.

well that's because even withouot being projectiles it's a ranged aa let's take the example of Kayle her autos aren't proectiles, and yet she can builditem 3077 item 3748 item 3074, but i'm pretty sure thos items won't work while she's using her e, unlikeitem 3085 And also if you could use those items on Thresh you should be able to use them on Azir too (andVelkoz ? i'm not sure about him, but i think his autos can go through Yasuo windwall)

I still consider Thresh as a part of the 'gets too many cupcakes for free' so they get away quite easily with so many kind of builds. While also being normally played in a position as a support, Even if you count for the fact he gets a rocky start on his armor due to a 'issue' with gaining armor, but is easily compensated and much more via his soul system which also lets him get damage to boot.

It lets him be like so many other 'pocket safe 100% all the time picks' where the enemy team could be playing anything and it won't matter much to you, since a champion like Thresh doesn't have a proper counter against him to make his easy mode support play style get flipped into a living hell to go against. But lets recall that just like champions such as LeeSin Shen Sion Hecarim Zyra Bard Heimerdinger EvelynnBard Brand Nautilus Tryndamere Bard and Bard.

That let such champions get quite abit of free'lo freedom whether its in a bit too much power in their kits (cough Brand having some considerable damage and gets to turn people into % max health bombs that each champion can turn into and it can happen as early as early game and can even middle finger a team fight with his R cough), Can just go 1 damage item and then full on tank for the rest (cough Hecarim cough LeeSin), Even just run one particular item that normally 'no other champ originally ran', but these guys always abused or joined in on the abuse to turn into easy CC or damage wipe a target easy and then run away easy ({{chaso mpion:28}} Thresh Blitzcrank), namely because once those 5 seconds past, item 3117 makes it impossible for you to be caught with nothing short of a flank.

Doesn't help either that item 3071 on ADC champions (Looking at you Lucian and MissFortune) exploit a item normally intended for 'tankie fighters'(Seriously Rito, make the damn thing melee only already so ADCs stop getting drawn into B.S. Armor shred and lethality builds, plus fix tank items too so champions can stop mixing the items and be omnipotently safe basically against any other enemy champion, outside of a group ganking or against a overfed opponent) and a champ like Thresh who can just go this retarded crit build setup and then just whip people to death and if anyone dives him he can just use his flay knockback/pull-in or his R to easily get away and continue his auto whipping with his ability that amps up his autos, especially if he waits for it to 'build up'.
