After core items, you adapt. You can play as a tank or as a damage dealer.
How to play
General
Use Hextech Rocketbelt active to poke your enemies all the time, earning gold with First Strike.
Adapt to the enemy team. Build tanky or more damage. You can play as a utility tank, poke, or even you can go some AD items to still have plenty of damage. Depends on the team and how you want to play.
For utility tank, remember that Liandry's Torment works good with Serpent's Fang (to counter shields) and Oblivion Orb (to counter healing).
Cosmic Insight reduces the cooldown of all active items, so Zhonya's Hourglass really works well with this build.
Wait for the First Strike and proc it with your combo, to deal damage and earn gold.
Be careful to not get poked, because you waste First Strike procs.
Your main combo is First Strike + Hextech Rocketbelt + Q (go in) + use R + E + couple of auto attacks and Ignite.
Your alternate combo just for poke is First Strike + Hextech Rocketbelt, followed up by E and auto attacks (without going in).
Champion
You primarily will be looking to hit Death Sentence (Q). Once you do that, you can (go in), use The Box (R), use Flay (E) and follow that up with auto attacks. Or just do it from the distance, use E, maybe R and a couple of auto attacks.
You can use Flay (E) during Death Sentence (Q) flight. That's a very cool interaction that will let you do some plays and more damage.
Tips and Tricks
Riot
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.
