Mage updates (Just Two More)

I've noticed the mana changes and while I don't have a full opinion on where they're trying to take mages in general. I just want to say you NEED to add Karma and Morgana onto this list or they're gonna be permanently in the bot lane. Not going to go into the 'Why' they should get something like this as a solo lane buff. And I don't want to start the 'Why would you give support champions a solo lane buff' conversation either. But if you don't give them it, they're either going to become way too oppressive or absolutely useless more than they already are in the current patch.

Okay, so I'm just adding this on, because I've went back to OTP Karma mid for a while. It's extremely useful with the Swain Zed Galio meta thing we have here. Also the fact that no one in my elo is smart enough to play Azir, Cass or Ori

(Range counters this mage due to the fact that she can't poke through minions but that's an entire different thread piece.)

Going into just half a day of mid lane has shown me that Karma's laning phase is REAALLY suffering. Mana band is a must have on her because she wasn't touched by the last patch. I'm running out of mana at level 4 while trying to force trades. She already has to burn a lot of mana just for that.

Althens isn't a good buy while at the same time being a must buy. The mana regain for it is the only thing I would buy it for but it puts your damage back by so much that it isn't worth it.

I'm somewhat glad Morg made it onto the list so her early game isn't damage but please, do something about Karma so that she's playable this season as a mage and not just a shield bot.

Don't feel like making another form but every game I'm trying to stack up mana band or poke the enemy I get oom at lvl 3 and ganked due to it.

I understand league is a big game which requires some careful thinking but I can't say I enjoy it when Karma is always left out for three years without any solo lane buffs. Or hot fixed when a problem that never happened to her is only applied onto her due to everyone else getting buffed. Morg was added yet karma was not, that blows my mind in all honestly.

I'll just take a break from it until I feel like mid lane isn't a duo lane or a 'Clear minions wait for other lanes then push and win' one. I miss the times there were actually trades.
