Karma Build Guide by Egypsian_Lover

Congratulations, this is an excellent build. I have gotten 6/2/21 with Karma. She is an excellent support.

Even my team told me that I am pro with Karma. :)

Thank you very much.

Very impressive build, ive been trying to get the hang of Karma without reading guides (do this with most Champs) to eventually see where i do wrong on guides.
This guide is so insanely into detail it took me hell a while to get trough it, cant imagine howmuch time you put into this.
I also empathize how you (as one of few) keep saying that Supports should just support and not go for the kills.

One thing that i find more useful myself is to level my E first and at level 2 to get my Q, but thats only on full pre made games, just to help my laning partner to get the first blood

Never the less!
+1 fo this amazing build!

An excellent guide. I am so glad I decided to look at this one (was tempted not to because the other two top guides had much higher scores).

Best guide I have read on mobafire, it easily beats the other needlessly higher-rated Karma guides.
Some points that stood out to me:

- even if you're never going to play Karma, this guide will still benefit you greatly because it includes game basics, shows what Karma's playstyle is like (good to know for playing with and against her) and also touches on universal game subjects that concern all champions

- it touches on "coralling" team mates in order to do well in solo queue, which is a very, very very valuable skill to have and something I have not seen explained in this detail elsewhere

- it teaches the principle of adapting one's item build to suit the opponents' strengths and game flow

- every point is explained well, it encourages customisation and therefore it doesn't give off the "do-as-I-tell-you-or-die" feel that other guides have

- it has basic math (charts and passive explained) to help make some points which I find very valuable as at a high level of play, concerning oneself with the math behind the game is a way to get an edge over your opponents (judging items based on cost effectiveness is really just one example)

- is steers clear of extremes such as "if you do this, you suck" or "get that and you will be godmode" because everything is relative and even a team of fed carries can be beat by teamwork


With that said, a few things struck me as potential improving points for your guide:

The item build section is very well-explained and thorough, although players new to Karma will still have to read and memorize the entire thing. A kind of flow chart attached as a .jpg to use as a cheat sheet would help with the first few games and then players could go back to your guide and read the text for the finer points (flow chart would be something like: enemy team has more than two AD carries: Frozen Heart; more than two AP carries: Banshee's Veil, else Rod of Ages).
I noticed some minor errors while reading, most of which I already forgot after having reached the end of the guide :P One I remember is using the term AoE in the section about DoT shielding where you clearly meant do write "DoT". It might do the guide some good for you to read it once over again, improve readability and reading fluency (and using the item icons instead of the full names; this makes it so you can instantly see which item is recommended in what section, as the actual item's name is badly distinguishable from the mass of text it is usually encompassed in; players who are not 100% familiar with the items can also tooltip them to see their stats; it saves space as well and provides a clear visual marker for the most important things in the item section, i.e. the actual items).


Overall, a must-read for every Karma player, especially for people who might be new to the game and be afraid to touch a seemingly complicated character. After reading this you can instantly go and play some games with her and do well.

Tank Ryze is not a build, it's a skill...also I still have no idea how I pulled that off.

Oh, sorry for the late reply, I forgot to check back XD

Um...I'm not sure exactly what codes you are looking for, but here are some helpful codes you may not know about here.

Also, check out Searz's guide format here, he has some other codes there such as columns.

Respect. I think Karma is one of the most underrated support in League of Legends. One day I will try her out. With tips from this guide of course ;]

Best guide on Mobafire so far. +1
