Is Thresh better when played alongside Poppy?

There is no universally accepted best champion pairing for Thresh that will 100% of the time be his best teammate. However, Poppy is a very typical teammate for Thresh. By playing on the same side as Thresh, she has no effect on their win rate by 0.0% to 48.5%. This shows that there is not really a strong synergy between Thresh and Poppy that results in them performing at the same level together than without each other.

Poppy has a lower difficulty than Thresh. That means Thresh players don't need to be very careful when arranging Poppy comrades to fight alongside, as they will need a lower level of skill to be able to play well with you.

Working alongside, you will likely see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to support your allies. Together, these champs may be able to carry with the power of their abilities.

Although, by aligning Thresh and Poppy together, you probably will not be giving your other teammates very much magical damage output. We recommend you pick other champs on your team that offsets this hole in this pairing's capabilities.

Regardless of your Poppy ally's skill level, you need to focus on increasing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you will do well, regardless.
