When Zed plays on the same team as Zoe, he gets a little drop in his full damage output. This difference may indicate that Zoe doesn't help protection for him to dish out more damage or that her presence also helps extend the game's duration.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Zoe.
Additionally, when Zed plays with Zoe on the same side, he typically receives more damage than when he fights alone. Taking more damage may indicate that Zoe does a poor job of protecting Zed in teamfights.
