Karma Matchups Overview
Karma General information
Karma tips and tricks
Aim your
Q so it hits the enemy and the minion wave together so it pushes the minion wave and pokes the enemy at the same time.
In team fights, use your empowered
E rather than your empowered
Q as the shield is more valuable in a team fight.
Try and poke the enemy down as much as possible with your
Q in the early game. Use your level 1 ability advantage to get a lot of damage down early.
