Who Wins

Pre-6, you have a meaningful level 2 spike when you get E — landing it on both Zeri and Thresh forces a favorable trade since Jinx can freely auto during the root.
However, Thresh's level 2 hook threat is equally dangerous, so the 2v2 is roughly even pre-6 and heavily dependent on who lands CC first.
Post-6, your R is a strong teamfight tool but telegraphed; Zeri's dash can exit the radius, so the 2v2 post-6 is still contested rather than clearly won.

Use your passive clone to bait Thresh into wasting his hook on a fake target, then immediately follow with your E root onto the real targets — this is your highest-value trading sequence and removes Thresh's primary engage tool for several seconds.
After the hook is burned, signal Jinx to all-in; without the hook, Thresh's damage output is low and Zeri cannot safely 1v2.

You should roam when the wave is pushed to the enemy tower and Thresh has used his hook recently — your R and E give you strong gank assist for mid, and your clone passive makes you hard to track in the river.
Avoid roaming when Jinx is shoved under tower without vision, as Thresh can dive her with Zeri if you are absent and the wave is in a bad position.

Do not use your R as a pure damage tool in lane — Zeri's dash speed means she will simply exit the channel radius before it fully detonates, wasting your ultimate for minimal impact.
Save R for moments when Thresh has already used his E or when Zeri is cornered against terrain with no dash angle available.
