I need to play thresh more. I live #supportlife but stuck in the old mindset of "if janna aint good enough, nothing is"

every time I try to pick up thresh I always flay in the wrong direction at least 1-2x no matter what.

Laning against Mundo as Trynd really isn't the worst thing in the world. Keep a minion wave in front of you and avoid the cleaver damage and your sustain will keep up with his. Farm the frick out of the lane and be the typical late game beast. I went 1/6/9 due to their mid and jungle constantly ganking (like seriously 6-7 times) and still ended up getting 5 towers and three total inhibs. Had the second most gold in the game. Only 400 behind our super fed Cait. Free farming is just as good as getting fed. When you're 100 farm ahead of everyone else, it doesn't really matter what your score is unless you're like 0/12.

The thing about flay that fricks me every time, is that it isn't a true smart cast (or maybe I'm doing it wrong)

If your thresh is facing a certain direction, and you smart cast the flay, it will only flay the way he is facing. Meaning it won't turn your thresh towards the direction you want to flay to/from, if that makes sense.

So as Cait, if I want to use my Q, regardless of whether I'm facing forwards, backwards, left or right...where I smart cast my Q, is the way she is going to shoot it.

With Thresh, that isn't the case. you actually have to right click your self into position to make sure you are facing the proper direction. Smart casting flay won't work unless you make thresh face the way you want him to.

ETA: AD thresh is bad arse. Attack speed + Statik Shiv = beast mode. I always do it as a support on hexakill. The passive on his E (Flay) is just devastating. It's amazing.
