Statistical Matchup Analysis

Thresh dominates the meta (1st most popular, 13.9% pick rate) and regularly clashes with Rell (3.9% pick rate). Understanding this common matchup forms the foundation of consistent gameplay for one of support's current powerhouses. Surprising upset: Despite Thresh's higher tier rating, Rell wins 51.8% of encounters. This suggests Rell's kit specifically counters Thresh's playstyle, overriding general meta strength - approach this matchup with extra caution. Every edge matters: In this tough matchup, the proven Aftershock + Font of Life combination (58.9% win rate) plus optimal itemization Locket of the Iron Solari, Knight's Vow, Redemption, and Boots of Swiftness boosts your chances from 48.2% to 70%+ - potentially game-changing.

Vision deficit: Struggling in both the matchup and vision control (0.90 vs 0.94 wards/min) demands defensive warding and heavy jungle coordination. Damage doesn't equal wins: Thresh outputs more damage (364 vs 339/min, 2nd place) but still loses the matchup. The issue likely lies in survivability, mobility, or damage timing rather than raw output. Complete dominance by Rell: leads in both matchup win rate (51.8%) and KDA (2.80 vs 2.70, 14th vs 17th place). Thresh players need exceptional preparation to overcome this counter-pick.

How to Beat Rell as Thresh (Support)

Despite the slight difference in effectiveness, in the Thresh versus Rell matchup as support, neither champion has an overwhelming advantage. The winner is determined by player skill and understanding the intricacies of the confrontation. Studying this guide will improve your chances of success.

The magic damage that Thresh deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Rell has mixed damage, be careful as it may be harder to defend if the opponent gets ahead or plays aggressively.

Consider the excellent vision control demonstrated by Rell, ranking 9th (versus 14th for Thresh) in ward placement among supports. This means the opponent provides better map vision for their team. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.8 versus 2.7) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Thresh Support versus Rell Support matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Thresh player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Rell player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

Thresh tips:

  • Communication is key when making use of Thresh's lantern. Let your teammates know how you like to use it.
  • Death Sentence and Flay can be combined in either cast order for powerful combinations.
  • Thresh can collect souls without needing to kill units himself. Planning your map position to be near the most deaths will help to maximize soul collection.
