This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Thresh.

Is Zac better when played alongside Thresh?

There is no top synergy for Zac that will 100% of the time be his #1 ally. However, Thresh is a relatively poor ally for Zac. By playing on the same team as Zac, he decreases their win rate by -1.8% to 50.0%. This clearly indicates that there is a negative synergy between Zac and Thresh that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

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

When playing on the same side, you should see an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magic damage. Together, these champions are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

In contrast, by bringing Zac and Thresh together, you will not be providing your other allies very much attack damage. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that fills this relative hole in this pairing's capabilities.

Regardless of your Thresh ally's skill level, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you should do well, regardless.
