Why has she become so damn annoying as of lately. It's like in lane all she does is Q and then BOOK IT WITH HER MOVE SPEED BOOST and she'll continuously do that without LOSING ANY MANA. mid lane and support. Am i overreacting or is she just seriously hard to deal with?

Like her kit offers her everything she could want, she's basically loaded, whenever she's on the opposite team she always jsut dominates my mid laner then i have to deal with her Nuke Q. I just really cant deal with her

Why has she become so damn annoying as of lately

Because instead of giving Karma a niche or identity - or propper strengths and weaknesses - Riot keeps buffing her values (4 straight buffs in 7 months). And this exactly what happens when you overbuff an allrounder.

But here are a few tips in the meantime;

  • RQ hits so hard because it's basically two damage spells in one. It looks impressive, but the damage is comparable to Zyra, Lux or Morgana hitting with their root and following up with a second damage spell.
  • Keep minions/tanks between her and yourself all the time. She can barely damage tanks and they can bodyblock all her damage.
  • She has no real ult. Most midlaners will outscale her even if she won lane.
  • If she uses mantra on Q, she is vulnerable. If she uses mantra on W or E, she deals very little damage for a while. The same is true if she wiffs her RQ.
  • Karma wants you at the outer circle of her RQ range to hit you most easily. Walking towards her can make dodging very easy.
  • All of Karma's defense is in her spells. She falls quickly when CC'ed.

I hope this helps!

Same, i find it really annoying that i get halfed by a support karma with just frost queens, i would understand that in the mid lane if she had more items, but a support karma with hardly half an item halfing me? come on man, shes already got a stun, a shield, movement speed increase, why does she also need a tactical nuke built in?
