Pyke has a lower difficulty than Thresh. That means Thresh players don't need to be very careful when arranging Pyke comrades to fight alongside, as they will have to have a lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.
Working cooperatively, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal physical damage. When paired, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.
In contrast, by pairing Thresh and Pyke together, you will not be providing your other allies much AP. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that neutralizes this gap in their abilities.
Regardless of the skill of your Pyke teammate, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
