Karma

Flexibility is the core of Karma’s design. Every game she effectively chooses which ability to upgrade on the fly: Mantra, available from level 1 without a skill point, empowers her next spell with an additional effect, and her passive Gathering Fire refunds Mantra’s cooldown whenever her damaging abilities connect. The result is a support and mid laner who trades aggressively not just for lane pressure, but to recharge her strongest tool faster.

Her base kit covers offense, control, and protection. Inner Flame is a straightforward exploding poke orb; Mantra turns it into a cataclysmic burst for real kill pressure. Focused Resolve tethers an enemy, revealing them and rooting if the link holds — her main pick and chase tool. Inspire shields an ally and speeds them up, and its Mantra version spreads the shield to nearby teammates, converting a single-target save into a teamfight-wide engage or disengage button.

Where she fits

As a support, Karma is a poke and tempo enforcer who shoves lanes, shields her carry through all-ins, and speeds the whole team into or out of fights. In the mid lane she plays as a utility mage, sacrificing raw burst for constant harass and roaming speed. Her defensive stat lean means she survives skirmishes that delete squishier enchanters.

Karma suits players who enjoy making a decision every fight — spend Mantra on damage, the root, or the group shield? — and who value constant activity over big cooldown moments. Her weakness is committal: with everything spent, she offers little until Gathering Fire recharges her.
