Karma
Champions that beat Karma
- Blitzcranksupport
Rocket Grab (Q) hook line reaches 1100 units — Karma has no dash to dodge once committed. Power Fist (E) knockup chains before Focused Resolve (W) root applies, and Static Field (R) silence prevents Mantra-Q cast during the engage window.
- Kha'Zixjungle
Focused Resolve (W) tether requires Karma stand still — Leap (E) plus Taste Their Fear (Q) bursts her during the channel before she lands the root. Inspire (E) shield is broken by evolved Q burst, and Mantra-R extras are wasted on a stealthed Void Assault (R) target.
- Leonasupport
Zenith Blade (E) dash + Shield of Daybreak (Q) stun lands point-and-click on Karma before Focused Resolve (W) tether locks. She eats the engage without getting her root off, and Solar Flare (R) AOE stun zones any Inspire (E) save attempt on the ADC.
- Nautilussupport
Dredge Line (Q) hook through minions catches Karma before Inner Flame (Q) cast, and Staggering Blow (P) auto-attack root chains Depth Charge (R) targeted knockup. Riptide (E) AOE slow zones Inspire (E) speed boost, and Karma has no dash to escape.
- Neekosupport
Tangle-Barbs (E) outranges Inner Flame (Q) poke at 800 units and Shapesplitter (W) clone disguises Neeko's position so Pop Blossom (R) AOE lands on both bot opponents. Focused Resolve (W) tether breaks under E root and Mantra (R)-Inspire (E) shield burns under Blooming Burst (Q).
- Pykesupport
Bone Skewer (Q) hook line catches Karma — she has no dash to dodge once committed. Phantom Undertow (E) dash chains a stun before Mantra-W root locks, and Death From Below (R) execute deletes Karma at low HP regardless of Inspire (E) shield.
- Rellsupport
Ferromancy: Crash Down (W) knockup catches Karma's clumped duo before Focused Resolve (W) tether locks. Magnet Storm (R) pulls targets into Shattering Strike (Q) range, and Full Tilt (E) speed beats Inspire (E) speed boost for a clean dive.
- Sennasupport
Inner Flame (Q) is a 950-range skill-shot with no dash to follow up and Focused Resolve (W) requires staying in close range for the root. Senna casts Last Embrace (W) first from outside their poke range, then Piercing Darkness (Q) autos chip her down freely.
- Zileansupport
Zilean's Time Bomb Q chain detonates in an area and bursts down Karma before Inspire E shield procs the team. Inner Flame Q snare cone is dodged by Time Warp W self-speed, and Chronoshift R guarantees Zilean's ADC survives the 2v2 burst trade.
Champions Karma beats
- Brandsupport
Blaze (P) needs Brand to stack 3 abilities on Karma for the detonation — Inspire (E) shield breaks the chain. Mantra-W root holds Brand through Sear (Q) windup, and Inner Flame (Q) cone out-pokes Conflagration (E) while Pyroclasm (R) bounces are dodged by E speed boost.
- Sonasupport
Sona has no stun pre-6 — Crescendo (R) needs setup time Focused Resolve (W) interrupts. Mantra-Q cone burst out-trades Power Chord (P) procs, and Inspire (E) shield-speed combo nullifies Aria of Perseverance (W) shield healing on the ADC.
- Sorakasupport
Soraka cannot punish a missed Inner Flame (Q) — she has no hard CC to follow up. Karma free-pokes the ADC and Astral Infusion (W) sacrifice HP loop crumbles under sustained Q chip plus Inspire (E) shield-and-speed engage windows.
- Xerathsupport
Xerath cannot stack Arcanopulse (Q) charge under Inner Flame (Q) cone pressure — Mantra-Q knockback interrupts Eye of Destruction (W) cast. Focused Resolve (W) roots him during Rite of the Arcane (R) channel, and Inspire (E) speed boost dodges Shocking Orb (E) line.
- Zyrasupport
Inner Flame (Q) range matches Deadly Spines (Q) at 800, and Inspire (E) shield negates the plant poke from Rampant Growth (W). Focused Resolve (W) roots Zyra during Grasping Roots (E) cast, and Mantra-Q knockback cancels Stranglethorns (R) plant-summon channel.
