How to Play with Sylas as Thresh in LoL

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

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

Is Thresh better when played alongside Sylas?

There is no universally accepted best ally for Thresh that will always be his ideal ally. However, overall, Sylas is a relatively poor ally for Thresh. By playing on the same side as Thresh, he decreases their win rate by -2.9% to 45.6%. This shows that there is a negative bond between Thresh and Sylas that allows them to perform not as well together than without each other.

Sylas has a lower difficulty than Thresh. That means you don't need to be very careful when enlisting Sylas allies to play with, as they will require a lower level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Playing cooperatively, Thresh players should see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magic damage. Together, these champs can blast through enemies with magic damage.

In contrast, by grouping Thresh and Sylas together, you will not be providing your other teammates a great deal of anti-tank damage dealing potential. Plan to have other champs on your team that nullifies this hole in their kit.

Regardless of the ability of your Sylas ally, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
