I have really bad luck against Karma players. Whenever I fight them I get harassed a bunch by her Q and she roots me down before I can punish or even retaliate against her. Then late game she can pretty much solo me by tethering me, running after me as I hopelessly try to break the tether, root me, and then blow me up.
This is when I play squishy champions.
So how do you fight Karma as a melee champion?
SoundChaosDebug8 votesBe a nice guy and karma will be nice back, I dunno
KraDEsluP2822 votesi don't fight karma, I just farm under tower and beg that I don't die more than twice in lane.

The same way you fight every counter champion. Bore her to tears by playing like a giant B, and then blow up her tower when she backs.
Allow her to overextend constantly and then bait your own jungler over by saying "Yo, free kills top"
Ralanr3 votesBore her huh? I can do that.
RookPusher2 votesYou'd be shocked how short of an attention span these people have. Build for survival, wait them out. First they get bored, then they get cocky, then they overextend, then they feed, then they're tilted.
Also, if you're unsure of your matchup going into the game, take Siegemaster and just ruin their life. I don't even worry about falling behind in CS. It's a long game. You'll catch up. And nothing is worse than giving up kills. Nice and easy. Throw on some tunes. Build a ZZ'Rot. Enjoy yourself.
Ralanr2 votesI usually do it when playing against heavy lane bullies as a tank. Works wonders against Riven players.

Ralanr1 votesMid lane. But let's assume top as well.

Ralanr1 votesTalon or Ekko. Sometimes Diana.
Tyrone Lannister1 votesWell the majority of her dmg come from q, use your dash to dodge it when she misses and punish
venomous frost1 votesyou don't
ask to switch lanes, or just abandon lane and roam
Wild Wes1 votesYou can't. Karma's a bitch.

M0RDEKA1SER1 votesDance around in and out of minion waves. Bait her Q as often as possible, run her out of mana. Once she has <10% bait the last bit of it then all in her.
redniwediS1 votesIf you have burst your goal is to surprise her. If you don't have burst your goal is to out map pressure her, or be more important than she is during team fights.
The goal is to win, and winning the game does not always involve winning lane. Survive, don't fall behind, and be more useful to your team later on than she is to her own.
Shaydrox1 votesEh she's one of those champions that plays themselves in some scenarios. Karma vs melee just automatically wins 99% of the time, especially within a laning phase as you don't have enough space to get to her through her snare/slows.
