Karma's Kit a bit overloaded?

Snare, slow, shields, team shields, enhanced nuke with aoe slow, self heal with incredible AP ratios.

If you think this is a QQ post, you're right. I'm tired of this champion being picked into me when I chose Draven. It's literally impossible to get to the ADC with Karma snaring and slowing, making me drop my axes and not being able to move. The champion is a huge cockblock.

Karma's Q slow is rather weak mid-late game unless Karma is building a lot of AP, and her only hard CC is single target. Karma's only real strengths lie in her strong early game and the massive shield and speed boost she can provide her allies.

Her identity is really unfocused. She has too much of everything. But hey, you should be happy; a champion that doesn't excel at anything can be beaten at everything.

As a Karma main I wouldn't mind if some of her artillery (poke) and disruptor (mega root) stuff would be cut, and if she got better at enchanting and dealing damage instead.

Maybe we can agree that this might improve her.

She does a little bit of everything because she has no identity. She does minor things other support champions can do.

The only thing she can't do is stun or heal her ally (unless she gets Athene's.)

Q: A very basic projectile spell. It can't pass through enemies and hits in a small AoE. It's a medium range spell. Enhanced Q: It has a bigger hit box and does a lot of damage initially in the early game. This WILL hurt early on against squishies, even when she doesn't build AP.

W: A tether/snare. She has to wait the same (if not more) time as Leblanc to snare a single enemy. This spell is very rarely leveled 2nd (before Q or E) and therefore generally has a very low snare time. Enhanced W: Just makes the snare slightly longer until max rank W+R which can make it 3 seconds (but it's still a tether before it's a snare). If she's close enough to use this late game she is vulnerable to other enemies jumping on her. Yes, it heals her, but she seldom gets a ton of Hp making this not so good on a smaller health pool.

E: Her shield has the lowest base value. 190 at max level. It's meant for getting allies in or out of position moreso than being a shield. Enhanced E: Minor Sivir ult, and a very strong shield on a single target (other targets only get half the value)

Her Ult isn't up very often in the early game. take advantage of that.

She can't Team Shield, Nuke AoE, and self heal all at the same time. Her ultimate has a cooldown, she can only pick one when her ultimate is up.

Her snare has a 2 second delay, you and your support have plenty of time to punish her from trying to keep the tether connected.

Best counters to Karma are easily Thresh Zyra and Velkoz because they can cc her when she gets close from a distance. Don't pick Braum against a Karma support.

Karma is a decent counter to Draven.
