Overall, Zed sees a large worsening in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Lulu. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN.

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

Is Zed better when played alongside Lulu?

There is no one best companion for Zed that will always be his #1 ally. However, overall, Lulu is a not very good companion for Zed. By locking into the same team as Zed, she decreases their win rate by -1.1% to 47.3%. This clearly indicates that there is a bad synergy between Zed and Lulu that results in them performing worse together than without each other.

Lulu has a lower difficulty than Zed. That means Zed players don't need to be cautious when lining up Lulu comrades to fight alongside, as they will require a lower level of skill to be able to fight well with you.

Working cooperatively, Zed players should observe an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal physical damage. Together, these two can tear through the other team with a lot of physcial damage.

Conversely, by bringing Zed and Lulu together, you may not be providing your other allies enough tankyness. Plan to bring other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative hole in their abilities.

Regardless of your Lulu ally's ability, you need to focus on increasing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well anyway.
