Who Wins
- You win pre-6 through superior poke and sustain with W, as Thresh lacks reliable engage without Flash.
- Post-6 your R provides better teamfight setup than Thresh's kit, but his R can still turn isolated 2v2s if Caitlyn gets caught.
Synergy & Trading
- Use Q when Ezreal steps up for CS, then immediately W to sustain any return damage while giving Caitlyn movement speed for repositioning.
- Save E for when Thresh commits with Q, using the root to turn his engage into your advantage.
Wave Control/Roaming
- Roam when you have pushed waves and Thresh is absent, particularly after successful recalls around levels 4-6.
- Time roams when mid lane is gankable or when jungle objectives are spawning, but ensure Caitlyn can safely farm alone.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste W healing when both you and Caitlyn are full health, as the mana cost is significant early game.
- Avoid using E aggressively for poke when Thresh Q is available, as missing your root while he has hook creates a dangerous window.
