Playing cooperatively, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to soak up damage. When paired, these two might be able to provide enough cover for their team's carries.
In contrast, by grouping Alistar and Zac together, you will not be providing your other allies very much sustained damage output. We recommend you have other champs on your team that fills this relative gap in their potential.
Regardless of your Zac ally's ability, you should focus on increasing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well anyway.
