Riot Buffs More Utility and Basic Abilities, Knowing Mantra is The Real Problem.
Per Riot NeuroCat
Developers like Meddler said the same thing in the past. The problem is that, yet again, Karma is getting another band-aid fix that will eventually be nerfed. Anything on this champion is always buffed and then nerfed because nothing is ever being worked on. Guess what Karma is getting with the "band-aid fix" more changes to Q and utility through-out her kit. Where are changes like this?
Q was already buffed in damage, the slow was already increased, the splash damage was widened, and now Q is being buffed again with a stronger slow. Great!? Buffing something that is not the actual problem but leaving the Mantra abilities the way it is. Also, the movement speed duration on Karma's abilities was already touched, but E is getting massive buffs. Let's not actually find a way to make Mantra E more interesting and unique to Karma. At least the rework Mantra made it more useful in a 2-3 man group setting.
Let's get down to this because I've been harassed, belittled, down-voted, and name-called enough. Let's all take a minuet and talk about the good parts of the cancelled rework that were not actually bad, but the back and fourth buffs and nerfs are made a top priority for years now.
THE PROBLEM WAS THE ALLY MECHANIC THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A BALANCE NIGHTMARE, TOOK UP ALL THE POWER BUDGET IN HER KIT, AND DIDN'T EXACTLY FIT KARMA. I mean, wouldn't it be perfectly acceptable to give us these changes, the ability to give mana to allies with Mantra W, and with Meddler's stupid passive idea/rework? Why aren't half of the rework changes being implemented when it is very much aware by everyone that the problem lies in her Mantra abilities? In hindsight, I would have been more accepting of these changes without the stupid overpowered ally mechanic that lowers cooldowns, than these back and fourth buffs for years now. The additional Q slow will not make a da** difference and the E changes will be nerfed. Q has already been buffed to death and it will make Tank Karma even more frustrating to play against and the E changes even more annoying to play against.
