Is Yorick better when played alongside Thresh?

There is no one best companion for Yorick that will always be his best synergy. Yet, Thresh is a relatively poor teammate for Yorick. By locking into the same side as Yorick, he decreases their win rate by -1.1% to 49.2%. This signals that there is a harmful bond between Yorick and Thresh that results in them performing worse together than alone.

Thresh has a greater difficulty than Yorick. That means you should be cautious when lining up Thresh teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a greater level of skill to play well with you.

Working cooperatively, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to tank a lot of damage. Together, these two might be able to provide enough cover for their team's carries.

Although, by aligning Yorick and Thresh together, you probably will not be providing your team enough magic damage. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that fills this disparity in their capabilities.

Regardless of your Thresh ally's skill level, you should focus on increasing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
