The nerf is just another knee jerk reaction to pro play. In solo que she is getting hit harder than needed.

community hate circle jerk. its the same thing with yasuo ( minus his top lane but it still isnt that big of an issue while lulu and cait still exist )

Because shes broken?

This is the problem with this place, ppl think yasuo is overpowerd and shit like karma/lulu/ivern are "balanced"

You're a low elo thats why, karma has been all over the palce in high elo and competitive play.

karma in bronze < karma in diamond+

shes an amazing champion with a bit of an overloaded kit.

karma mains going to get triggered they need to put some thought into their champ before melting the adc with an r q .

Stats are plat+ I'm not sure where you pulling yours from. Also I'm not a karma main I'm a brand main the less shields and healers makes my job easier. At this rate only sona will ever be played for healing or shielding

There is more to balance than winrate, my friend.

Karma is terrifying in expert hands, and needs a bit of excess power trimmed off the top - it's really that simple.

Karma is a odd case but there is nothing in that champion as you described

Riot seems to disagree, as do I. She's really powerful currently and people are abusing it - needs a small nerf. Her trading and late-game 'shield' potential is just too good.

I doubt we will change each others mind - but it is indeed how I feel. Cheers :D

After further research she is just being picked too much in lcs and has nothing to do with that

Because it's fun playing against a fed Cait with Karma giving her an extra health bar when dove and GA giving 1 more just for insurance. She's also a generalist with the amount of utility and random shit in her kit. Shields, heals, 2 forms of CC, large speed buff, viable full tank build, viable damage build etc.

My comment double posted so I edited this one to this

Her "heal" is only good with the full tank build which was nerfed awhile ago so it doesn't work that well anymore and if anything Janna is the generalist of supports. Also you think a shield for a fed cait is bad? Give that fed cait a brand or leona which are both better picks than karma atm and she how worse you fair

Explaination: item 3174 Gets a massiv buff in the next patch. The itembuild item 3174item 3504item 3107item 2301 now grants 195 Ap (100Ap from item 3174 alone), instead of 135Ap. And Karma would definitely use this itembuild. So they are already adjusting her on the PBE. (But there are more candiates which likely need to be looked at: Nami, Lulu, Sona, Ivern and maybe Janna & Soraka)

I'm not sure why they hit her shield. If anything, they should've hit her W again because that ability is still pretty overbearing. A lot of her itemization seems to be getting buffed on the PBE cycle so it probably won't be too bad.
