This change could signal that Thresh does not support by providing cover for him to deal more damage or that his allyship also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Nocturne is played together with Thresh on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when he plays without Thresh. This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Thresh.
Moreover, when Nocturne plays with Thresh on the same team, he usually takes a little less damage than when he plays alone. Receiving not as much damage may mean that Thresh does a decent job of covering Nocturne during team fights.

Is Nocturne better when played alongside Thresh?
There is no ideal synergy for Nocturne that will always be his #1 ally. Yet, Thresh is a below average ally for Nocturne. By locking into the same side as Nocturne, he drops their win rate by -2.1% to 49.7%. This clearly indicates that there is a bad strategic relationship between Nocturne and Thresh that results in them performing not as well together than alone.
Thresh has a greater difficulty than Nocturne. That means you need to be cautious when enlisting Thresh comrades to fight alongside, as they will need a greater level of skill to fight well with you.
Fighting together, Nocturne players should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal physical damage. When paired, these two should be able to take down targets with auto-attacks and other AD damage abilities.
Although, by pairing Nocturne and Thresh together, you probably will not be providing your team a lot of magical damage output. Plan to pick other champions on your team that offsets this relative gap in this pairing's kit.
Regardless of the skill of your Thresh ally, you need to focus on increasing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
