By playing on the same team as Thresh, they lowers their win rate by -1.8% to 46.7%. This clearly indicates that there is a harmful synergy between Thresh and Naafiri that results in them performing not as well together than without each other.

Naafiri has a much lower diffuclty than Thresh. That means Thresh players don't need to be very careful when finding Naafiri comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a much lower level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Fighting alongside, you should witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to destroy wih physical damage. Together, these champions can provide a great amount of sustained physical damage.

In contrast, by aligning Thresh and Naafiri together, you probably will not be granting your team much magical damage output. We recommend you bring other champions on your team that nullifies this hole in their playstyle.

Regardless of the ability of your Naafiri ally, you should focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you follow these simple suggestions, you will do well, regardless.
