This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Zed.

Is Yone better when played alongside Zed?

There is no perfect ally for Yone that will 100% of the time be his top ally. However, Zed is a not very good ally for Yone. By being on the same team as Yone, he decreases their win rate by -2.8% to 46.5%. This signals that there is a bad synergy between Yone and Zed that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Zed has a lower difficulty than Yone. That means you don't need to be very careful when finding Zed allies to fight alongside, as they will need a relatively low level of skill to play well with you.

Playing together, Yone players should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal physical damage. When paired, these champions can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

In contrast, by grouping Yone and Zed together, you will not be providing your other teammates a great deal of crowd control. Make sure to pick other champs on your team that fills this disparity in this pairing's abilities.

Regardless of the ability of your Zed ally, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
