Just blew through like, an entire night reading this whole thing. Very in-depth and, as promised, comprehensive. I really appreciated all the diagrams and graphs you included, as well as the equipment flowchart. It was a very easy read, even if it was waaay too much info to take in on a single reading. I'll definitely be constantly referencing this for tips and the like as I play more.

There are so many more pictures here than I'd seen a couple months back. Way to break up the word walls!

But even if it were still word-wall-ish, the information in this guide is so detailed and way too good to pass up. This doesn't just teach you how to play Karma; it teaches you how to play Lol much more effectively.

This guide got me into Karma as well. She's been my main support since December of 2011, and I've rocked so many games with her.

Way to be a pro and make a pro guide!

Oh. My. God. I just spent half of my day reading this and now i plan on actually buying Karma and spending the next half trying everything you just told me. Outstanding guide. Great facts and details. Never seen such a complex guide before and learned so much. Thanks for making it :D

So, this guide is wonderful. Upvote. Definitely. Made an account just to do this. xD
This guide was the reason I bought karma, and I've had a wonderful few weeks playing her.

However, with next patch, her mantra-shield will no longer deal any damage, simply increase the target's tenacity by 25. Since this guy's no longer around, such a wonderful guide's gonna go poof.. TT_TT And my favourite champ is gonna be nerfed to hell and back. Yay.

I've done some searching, and the only change I found was that her Heavenly Wave was getting a knockback added when Mantra'd, and that wasn't even all that concrete. Please, show me where you saw this information.

You all need to understand they you CANNOT support karma without gold gen as all her abilities are useless without ap. Even on a champ like janna who doesn't need ap, you need gold gen items for wards and ideally also aura items. Karma without farm has a shield that shields for nothing, a 5% health heal and a little bit of dmg that will never do much, and a tiny speed buff. This isn't coming from a karma hater, i like her, its just you can either support mediocre with gp10s, mid ok with farm and ap items, or support with no gp10s assuring that you get no gold all game long and are useless. Also you mention your elo getting so high you can't try new champiions... You have 2 easy options. 1) if you are bad with game mechanics and cant pick up champions quickly do bot matches. 2) just q a match with that champ since you're not playing ranked and likely never will by the sounbd of it

This guide is insanely long, and for good reason. In my opinion, any guide that is less than 20,000 words, does not accurately reflect the complexity of the champion, much less the game for that matter. I do not play Karma, but after reading this guide, I am much more informed about her capabilities both in the laning phase, and in the late game phase when team fights rule the fate of the game. For that I award you a +1, and you may find a link to this guide from the guide I'm building myself (your section on "coralling" can be a guide in itself). Thanks again for the read!
