I just played Karma in a vs co-op match. She felt very powerful with her Mantra and combined with Inner Flame as well rooting them with Focused Resolve to hit with last damage and her sustain is great with Mantra + Focused Resolve. I don't think i have seen her most of the time. Is she powerful in vs player mode? or what?

I don't think so, but my own personal opinion. Getting a full Focused Resolve off is actually pretty hard unless the enemy misplays and it's pretty much the only way to get a Soulflare off. Landing Inner Flame isn't too difficult and it's a really good harass tool, but Mantra also feels pretty weak. I don't know, I feel like Karma has some really strong points in her kit, but she also seems to have a lot of weaknesses
Thanks for the Signature MissMaw!

only if you jungle with her

but srsly shes..."viable" but she isnt the best champion to use 99% of the time, like moon said getting your snare is impossible unless the guy wants to be snared, the heal is amazing though specially if you get a spirit visage (ap bruiser karma woo) and mantra'd Q chunks people if you can hit it, just make sure you hit the adc or apc or someone squishie with it, and your shield is...ok? i really only use the shield to dodge skillshots, ive been on the edge of hundreds of thresh hooks after i use my E, also you should max that second if anything

skill order is R > Q > E > W

youre mainly only using W for the heal and the possible snare, Q is for the poke/chunking, and you max E second because the MS boost scales with rank

honestly you dont have to get the explosion from mantra Q to do a ton of damage, just hitting someone with it is good enough, now if they let her explode it when she wanted to like lux can then it would be awesome

shes viable, just not a good choice, if you like her i suggest using someone similar like lux

I consider her an extremely viable option especially because she can play three lanes effectively, just with a bit more practice than usual. One of my favourite champions.

Old Karma was better; people were just scared to death of her passive. Sad.
