Champion Build Guide
Normies stay out| Then you can say **** them and go Karthus support and get kills without anyone bossing you around and the best part you can't get banned if you go Karthus support OFC as long as you don't talk **** back and mute them all and only go for ks or possible ways to kill the enemy team.
Its just the same thing, Go as healer you die and your teammates give 0 ***** and blames you if they die with you. BUT if you go Karthus support just let them do the work and press R its KILL SECURED and you can do this if your ****ty teammates can't do the job right.
Why go healer, tank or mid laner support meta when you can go Karthus since Karthus is so lost in this meta that he became a jungler than a top or mid laner and Riot games is so confused that they just put him in jungle automatically and didn't even add a guide on jungle Karthus but every one knows you should pick ap smite and not anything else.
THEY DON'T NEED HEAL OR ANYTHING THAT BENEFITS YOUR TEAMMATES AND BECOMES OVERKILL AFTERWARDS (THAT MEANS ITS USELESS BECAUSE YOU TEAMMATES WILL JUST BUY LIFE STEAL AND YOUR HEAL BECOMES EXTRA HEAL THAT DOESN'T BENEFIT YOUR TEAMMATES) BUT DOESN'T EVEN BENEFIT IT. You can just go Karthus support and win the game because they are all ******* and you can carry the game by stealing kills and ruin the enemy team's day.
For more information, touch the pen with the word note next to it.

1. Mute everyone - They are a distraction. Trust me just mute them they don't need anything from you.
2. Mute all pings - As a support main, support mains respond to pings and actually do it. Trust me follow yourself not other's. If you know what's gonna happen you gotta know what you're doing.
Example: If you know Vayne has R and is inside a corner with a lot of walls for you to get pinned and your teammates are far away, Do not go in and try to kill him.
3. Always go for KS - You need gold right? You got to go for easy kill. That's how you become a good support to a carry.
4. Don't listen to anyone - Karthus is an aggressive support not a passive one so go get those gold. Carry your team not be carried.
5. Have Fun - If your teammates are toxic just stop playing and get them off your mind. You can also report them and manually report them. Do not talk **** back to them otherwise you will get ban with them.
Note: Does not work if your teammates are IS*S.
Healers - Soraka will make it difficult for you to kill and assist, be sure to kill the healers before they can heal everyone in your team.
Shield champions - Lulu is not much of a problem, just go in there and start doing Karthus things to drain their shields or be a ***** and wait for Lulu to gtfo or waste it all and get in there and start killing.
Your teammates - If they feed ofc you can't carry as karthus unless you're farmed so go secure some kills.
If they go off meta or not meta at all just troll builds then you're ****ing ****ted. If there's a shaco top or neeko top in your team DODGE THE GAME. They will go fixed or unhelpful builds and ruin your game. DON'T PLAY THE GAME IF YOU FIND WEIRD PICKS. No one would dodge Karthus support. MUTE THE ****ING ****S IF THEY TRY TO TALK **** ABOUT KARTHUS SUPPORT. THEY'RE HYPOCRITES, COMMUNIST AND WORST TYPES OF PEOPLE THAT I CAN'T SAY BECAUSE ITS RACIST.
E and R is easy to use.
Now for the other parts
Learn to kite it's important. Increase your mouse sensitivity that you're comfortable with, avoid enemy ADCs that are too hard to hit like Caitlyn and Vayne instead focus on their weak spots, Never tell your teammates what to do otherwise they won't do it.
Important: If they know you're gonna Kill Secure it they will Kill Secure it back so be sure to play it "cool" and don't let them know you're gonna secure it.
Right now I'm doing a guide to teach you how to play Karthus but I am getting more information to teach you.
