Read from Milio's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Thresh.
This is Milio's own plan; across 21,375 pooled games the lane is leaning Thresh.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Milio | Your Q-slow and W heals beat Thresh's weak level-1 trades. |
| Level 2 | Milio | At level 2 your campfire spike out-values his poke if you dodge the hook. |
| Level 3 | Milio | Level 3 you still punish him whenever Death Sentence is down. |
| Levels 4-5 | Even / skill | Through 4-5 the lane is even as his hook threat balances your sustain. |
| Level 6 | Thresh | Level 6 his hook-Flay-Box chain-CC overpowers what your ult can cleanse. |
| First item | Thresh | At first item his lantern engage and hook all-in out-play your kit. |
| Two+ items | Milio | Late your R cleanse and global heals out-sustain his single-pick engage. |
You win the first three levels: your Q slow and W shield-heal beat Thresh's weak early trades, and his entire threat is the Death Sentence hook — dodge it and he has nothing. Body-block Q with minions and punish him with your ADC whenever it's on cooldown. Keep spacing so one hook can't catch both you and your carry. His early damage is thin and the chain is the only real threat, so hold the kick for the moment it lands rather than while it is airborne. Keep the campfire behind your line, shield your carry preemptively, and let your sustain outlast a lane he cannot poke.
