By locking into the same team as Thresh, he decreases their win rate by -0.3% to 48.2%. This signals that there is a weak bond between Thresh and Lucian that allows them to perform worse together than alone.

Lucian has a lower difficulty than Thresh. That means you don't need to be cautious when lining up Lucian teammates to fight alongside, as they will have to have a relatively low level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Playing cooperatively, Thresh players will likely observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal physical damage. Together, these champs can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.
