I love how he just gives up half way through the video and calls Thresh top a troll pick then switches striaght to Shyvana

[@XUIW]

“Very Ady-like”

[@highjumpkick999]

The reason why he takes double MR runes is because Thresh' passive grants him armor. So consider that when playing this pick :)

[@Tenny-Sea]

Isn't his base armor still super low to warrant armor against AD matchups?

[@weshouldbelovers]

you should always take hp in runes, it outscales armor/mr lvl 5

[@LuckyGnom]

He took double MR cuz that was a screenshot against AP laner. He had double armor in the actual gameplay.

[@esqzk]

@@weshouldbelovers lvl 5 not 3

[@Briezar]

@@weshouldbelovers armor and MR gives "effective" health which makes healing and regen more effective on you, it matters more in the early game. For example pots will heal 20% of your max hp instead of 15% max hp if you took HP shards.

[@nguyenphamkhoi4472]

I love Ady's style lol, he just thinks what he wanted to do top, or just simple as finding something that can both deal and absorbs damage, then just casually plays them regardless of the champion/meta. Truely Gigachad.

[@greensword02]

Like Baus says, this guy is the best player in the world.

[@Lol-zu7pq]

imagine if he had a real weapon

[@kelvinthenedy]

[@Za_Phantom]

there's a guy that has a whole channel about thresh in top lane and other off meta stuff. he isn't high elo but his thresh knowledge is very good. His channel name is Cryo.

[@thelostsoul9446]

I was just thinking about him! But whether his version of thresh top is actually viable or not is still to be questioned. He usually goes Titanic hydra/bruiser or real tank. I'm approximately his elo and tried it a few times, and while yeah this pick works somewhat when surprising enemies, it can't imo be meta in high elo when you meet the same people often. Your damage/survivability ratio is mediocre as best, his base stats are still originally done around a support's stats. And while the durability patch helped him not to get tower dove if he misses a single hook, it still didn't help Thresh a lot: Thresh doesn't have an armor growth like other champions, he just doesn't gain armor with levels because of his passive. Since the durability patch was done around resistances growth, Thresh instead got more hp per level, and not that much honestly. If i'm gonna play a tank top with high damage and CC, i'd rather go ornn, and most bruisers are better at doing most things Thresh top does apart from CC :/

[@Gonzalo1904]

His content is good tho

[@max-bc5uo]

if he isn't high elo it means the playstyle is bad

[@d4s0n282]

@@max-bc5uoduh no one said he was any good lol

[@topi2643]

CryBeat is gonne be happy, that somebody make his thresh top viable

[@minhlecong9065]

This challanger had use alot of support including: taric, rakan,... ( most likely champion has strong roaming) to go top. I remember he once use taric and solo kill wukong 3 times in a row

[@jeremyshiu]

Wait is this the same as the fried ady guy from baus stream? Lmao what a legend

[@refused-_-8491]

Yes it is

[@boxBob313]

Finally the gigachad fried ady top gets some recognition!

[@raffy10100]

Thanks dobby. I'll be seeing this more on my ranked games

[@takumifujiwara300]

Even if you explained everything LoL Dobby. Ady is a next level Alien any normal human being can't comprehend on Ady's plays.

[@kupo4914]

thanks for the shyvana build been feel like picking her up again when i realized ad build fun

[@blastcraft9067]

Finally, this guy is one of the motivations why I don't follow the meta.

[@sharpasacueball]

Yeah you go king

[@arab6745]

You have to take into account that thresh top works because players are not used to the match up. So Ady has experience against all matchups, but the others have none against thresh

[@eddiot03]

so excited to see first time thresh tops in my ranked games

[@natdaone5075]

Might try this Thresh build in Aram. Such a fun build

[@juice2090]

I play something similar in ARAM when I get Thresh a lot too. Vs a non tanky team you can go with Kraken, beserkers and such as well. Runaan’s is fun to use too since Thresh’s auto is considered a ranged auto attack. Basically building thresh as a ranged adc. Once you get Kraken en boots it starts to get fun. Edit: you might want to pick up some lifesteal for sustain.

[@MrMrtvozornik]

Imagine taking Runnan instead of RFC 2nd item for long range slaps. Thresh doesn't have sustain damage. This troll pick has been in the game since he was released. People tried to make the crit tresh with sheen in build for literal decade. Never worked, after his E passive damage goes away he just doesn't do enough if he's pure AD. Building him bruiser for spacing is far more viable, because his kit allows him to peel for his team while still doing some damage if you play him in solo lane. Even on ARAMs you'd probably do far more damage with Iceborn, Berserker greaves, Wits end and maybe Warmog as third item. That would allow you to deal damage and CC but also regain HP since on ARAM Warmog is OP item, thus allowing you to actually tank something for your team. Other option is full support CDR build so once you get 90ish AH you can perma hook someone. AD Thresh has always and will always be suboptimal troll pick.

[@rogeriomacedorodrigues2324]

Counter: Team Distrust. That's a big counter

[@dinhthochuong7633]

I've seen many of Ady's champs. But Thresh? wow that's insane

Seeing top shyvana again is actually nostalgic

[@kta_0187]

I love how this is infamous and trolling in Korean while this is normal in my Gold elo games.

[@ZDY66666]

I love heartsteel Titanic and fulll tank with berserker greaves and lethal tempo in ARAM. Almost guaranteed to do most damage and tank most damage as well while having highest CC score

[@karol_one]

this actually seems so fun :D

[@wooof8575]

"Ady doesn't care cause adc are more important now" I'm pretty sure Ady *never* cared.

[@LoLDobby]

Haha true

[@GreGorMIF]

and the top lane, such a build works great for Zak and Shen, Maokai, etc. or Although press attacks increase the damage of the item

What's up with poppy? she's almost in every clip of the video does she have a high pickrate in high elo or what?

[@sirollieman]

I wonder how riot will react to this- because I feel as though if they didn’t want thresh to be a somewhat strong duelist that they wouldn’t have given him the adjustments and tuning that they have given him..

[@avitamin1436]

what adjustments are you referring to here?

[@WyvernKnightBright]

Eh... I wouldn't be worried. From my time watching Cryobeat for fun, I know that Thresh has a horrible gimped auto-animation specifically to prevent things like this happening to him. His first auto always has a wind-up time to prevent Thresh from properly being able to kite people, meaning he can't properly abuse attack speed unless he stands still. Then there's the fact that Dobby even threw shade at this build by calling it troll and derailing the video into a Shyvana spotlight mid-way through.

Alright guys, time to unlock shyvana!

Top thresh is still troll. In those tf, either the threat was already dead right before he got there or the team was already ahead that any top laner would have done the same thing. Only a lane niche pick

If i had to stumble upon this guy , i would pick volibear , though i am pretty sure I would loose but the tower trick wouldn't work on me or jut pick nasus farm all game since this guy doesnt have the damage without the tower and then just perma freeze the lane in a spot where even if he hooks you its not close enough
