I love both the new and old karma, they're just different.
the old one is more support-ish,
and the new one is somewhere in between support and leaning more toward ap carry.
Before people play karma as ap carry but we all know her main role is support, now? kinda hard to tell.

I needed a while to get used to the new karma, cause i was one of the fans of the old karma.
I think new Karma is viable, but I do not think that the champion in fact improved. To my mind it is a completely different champion. I would still play the old Karma. She could really excel especially in a premade team where your mates know what you are doing. (And Enemys often have no clue what you are doing)
To my mind she now is a boring champion which has kind of a mixture of all the APs / Supporty APs. Fiddles Lifedrain is better than Karmas Mantra + SpiritBond, although she can move she can still be attacked and CC'ed during it, as already mentioned other Shields from supports are better, although i have to admit a Mantra+Shield for disengage rocks. Her Q, well... already said enough here.
As Support - sure, she can shield, but not heal anymore. Baiting does not work as good as it did before (among other reasons, because you don't get your AP bonus from passive)
So all in all - Riot made a unique champion in a mixture of others, where the others are usually more useful. I wish they made the new Karma a new Champion and kept the old champion.
The new Karma then could've been called "Sutra" so we got Karma Sutra in LoL :D
