Karma keeps the hypercarry alive with peel and sustain. Enough Siege and Attack sits in the kit to lean on range between objectives. Mantra (R) empowers her next Q/W/E within 8s: empowered W (Renewal) roots longer AND heals Karma herself for 17% missing HP on-cast and again on tether expiry/kill.

Kit quirks

Mantra (R) empowers her next Q/W/E within 8s: empowered W (Renewal) roots longer AND heals Karma herself for 17% missing HP on-cast and again on tether expiry/kill
Mantra-empowered E (Defiance) spreads the shield to nearby allies at reduced power, turning a single-target shield into a mini teamfight shield
Passive (Gathering Fire) cuts Mantra's cooldown by 4s per enemy champion hit by her damaging spells, rewarding poke before committing Mantra

Dragons & win rate

Win rate when Karma's team secured at least one of each drake, next to the all-champion rate in that same state. Teams that take dragons are usually already ahead, so every champ wins more with them — the honest read is the gap, i.e. whether Karma beats the average team that also has the drake. Single-drake samples are thin; treat small counts as suggestive.

Total Magic Damage: 60 / 110 / 160 / 210 / 260 (+ 40 / 100 / 160 / 220) (+ 100% AP)

The explosion creates a field for 1.5 seconds that slows enemies within by 50%, which then ruptures to deal magic damage.

Total Bonus Damage: 80 / 230 / 380 / 530 (+ 80% AP)

Targeting input: DirectionAffects: EnemiesDamage type: Area damageDamage sub-types: MagicSpell shield: See NotesProjectile: Blocked

Notes (3)

Focused Resolve

Cost: 50 / 55 / 60 / 65 / 70 ManaCooldown: 12Cast time: 0.25Target range: 675Tether radius: 825

Active: Karma deals magic damage to the target enemy champion, monster or pet and forms a tether between her and them for 2 seconds, during which they are revealed.

Magic Damage: 40 / 65 / 90 / 115 / 140 (+ 45% AP)

If the tether is not broken by the end of its duration, the target is dealt the same magic damage again and is rooted for a duration, during which they are revealed.

Root Duration: 1.6 / 1.7 / 1.8 / 1.9 / 2 seconds

Notes (5)

Spell shield will block the tether's application and damage but not the aftereffects of one already applied.
If Karma is tethered to multiple targets, the visual effects of all tethers will disappear at the end of the first tether's duration, but the other targets will remain tethered.(bug)
If the target becomes untargetable, dies, or is no longer in sight during the cast time, this ability will cancel but does not go on cooldown nor pay its cost.
If they move too far away during the cast time, however, the ability will cancel as normal but still go on cooldown and pay its cost.(bug)
Summon Aery will still count as the target being damaged this way.(unexpected)

Renewal

Mantra Bonus: Focused Resolve's root duration is increased. Karma heals for 17% (+ 1% per 100 AP) of her missing health once on-cast, and again once the tether lasts its full duration or the target dies while tethered.

Root Duration Increase: 0.5 / 0.75 / 1 / 1.25 seconds
Total Root Duration: 1.6 / 1.7 / 1.8 / 1.9 / 2 (+ 0.5 / 0.75 / 1 / 1.25) seconds

Renewal scales with Mantra's rank.

Spell shield will block the tether's application and damage but not the aftereffects of one already applied.
If Karma is tethered to multiple targets, the visual effects of all tethers will disappear at the end of the first tether's duration, but the other targets will remain tethered.(bug)
On cast, Renewal is treated as 2 abilities for Conqueror and Electrocute, instead of 1.(bug)
If the target becomes untargetable, dies, or is no longer in sight during the cast time, this ability will cancel but does not go on cooldown nor pay its cost.
If they move too far away during the cast time, however, the ability will cancel as normal but still go on cooldown and pay its cost.(bug)
Karma is still healed on-cast.
Summon Aery will still count as the target being damaged this way.(unexpected)
