Overall, Ekko sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Thresh. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN.

When Ekko is paired with Thresh, he observes a little drop in his complete damage dealt. This change may indicate that Thresh does not support by providing protection for him to dish out more damage or that his presence on the team also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Ekko is played with Thresh on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when he plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Thresh.
Moreover, when Ekko plays with Thresh on the same team, he typically receives a little less damage than when he plays alone. Taking not as much damage could mean that Thresh does a decent job of protecting Ekko in teamfights.

Is Ekko better when played alongside Thresh?
There is no universally accepted best synergy for Ekko that will 100% of the time be his best teammate. However, overall, Thresh is a relatively poor ally for Ekko. By playing on the same side as Ekko, he lowers their win rate by -2.2% to 48.8%. This shows that there is a negative synergy between Ekko and Thresh that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.
Thresh has a lower difficulty than Ekko. That means Ekko players don't need to be careful when enlisting Thresh teammates to fight alongside, as they will have to have a relatively low level of skill to be able to play well with you.
Playing on the same side, Ekko players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to support your allies. When paired, these champions will help their other teammates secure a victory.
Although, by grouping Ekko and Thresh together, you may not be giving your side a lot of tankyness. We recommend you include other champs on your team that offsets this relative hole in their potential.
Regardless of the skill of your Thresh ally, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
