Playing as Karma

Tips to maximize your impact

  1. Deal damage to refresh Mantra

    Hit the enemy with your spells: Gathering Fire (passive) lowers the cooldown of Mantra (R) with each damaging ability.

  2. Mantra then Q to poke

    To poke, cast Mantra (R) then Inner Flame (Q) at a group: the explosion leaves a ring of fire that slows and deals more damage.

  3. Mantra then W at low health

    At low health, cast Mantra (R) then Focused Resolve (W): you restore part of your missing health at the start and end of the tether, and the root lasts longer.

  4. Mantra then E for the whole team

    In teamfights, cast Mantra (R) then Inspire (E) on an ally surrounded by the others: everyone gets a shield and move speed, to engage or to escape.

Playing against Milio

How to counter and exploit weaknesses

  1. Dodge his fireball

    Dodge Ultra Mega Fire Kick (Q): it knocks you back, then explodes behind you and slows you.

  2. Back off when the campfire's up

    Back off when Cozy Campfire (W) follows his carry: they gain attack range and restore health over time.

  3. Save a CC for after his R

    If your team has several CC spells, save one for after Breath of Life (R): it cleanses disabling and immobilizing CC from his nearby allies.

  4. Go for Milio first

    If you can reach him, go for Milio first, especially away from his allies: he has no dash or leap, and without him, his carry loses shields, heals and range.
