These changes will help her overall viability. If it seems overpowered let me know.

Here is what I had in mind: Most players have been complaining about the amount of stacks/cooldown of her ultimate Mantra. So I suggest, removing the fact that it is available at level 1 and have it scale as a normal ultimate with a maximum of 3 Mantra stacks (and the level-up correspond to the CDR of the stacks themselves (available at levels 6/11/16)

Inner Flame (Passive): (unchanged: It is a GREAT passive idea and should remain that way) Karma gains 30/50/70/90/110/130 Ability power corresponding with how much health she is missing.

Q: Heavenly Wave: (unchanged as well: I do like the ability to heal your allies and herself for a % of her ability power) Karma deals 80/125/190/235/280 Magic damage in a cone in front of her. Mantra Bonus: Karma also heals herself and allies in the cone for 8/10/12/20% of her allies max health

W: Spirit Bond: (The slow itself is a bit weak and I wanted to add a change that would help it scale while waiting for Level 6 when you DO get Mantra stacks) For 5 seconds Karma links herself to her ally or enemy, speeding them up or slowing them (enemy) by 10/15/20/25/35 %. Enemy who pass through the cord have their Attack Damage and Ability Power decreased by 10/15/20/30/35 % for 2 seconds. Mantra Bonus: The Slow, Movement Speed bonus is doubled and the duration of the Debuff is doubled.

E: Soul Shield: (The ability and Mantra bonus are great but it needs something to put it over the edge, and add to the viability of the new build) Karma shields an Ally for 80/120/160/180/240. the shield also radiates dealing equal damage to all enemies around the shielded ally. Mantra Bonus: All enemies caught in the blast radius of the shield have their Healing Reduced by 50% for 3 seconds and are silenced for .25 /.5 /1 /1.5 seconds

R: Mantra (now available at 6/11/16) Max Stacks are increased to 3 at any time and the cooldown of each Mantra stack are 25/20/15 (unaffected by CDR)


Let me know what you think. It's just me sort of goofin' around so don't be too harsh as I am a big fan of Karma in Season 1. Thanks!

It doesn't really seem like you changed much about her. The problem is she has level six mana costs on her level six abilities while doing level five damage. The change to her W would be nice, except if your going to make her ultimate only available at lvl6 AND unaffected by cooldown reduction, it turns out to be a major nerf to her. You would have to make the mantra charge do something more to each ability if it is unaffected by CDR. Even with three charges she would use all of those charges up in a teamfight, then sit around and be a meatsheild for 15 seconds lategame, which is not how she plays out now nor how she should be played.

What Karma really needs is to have her abilities scale more sharply in damage per level or have some sort of added effect at six (regardless of a mantra charge, perhaps similar to syndra's passive) or have the mantra charge do more to her abilities, because currently she has no crowd control (even a simple knockup would be nice) and her W does not feel strong at all now, and even if the numbers were buffed on W, the positioning required to use it is awkward and often puts Karma in danger. No other speed boost/slow does this.

So, in conclusion, she needs her abilities to scale more sharply per level, she needs some sort of crowd control (with or without mantra) and she needs her W to be looked at in terms of positioning/function.

Just make all of her level 6 abilities have 340 base damage.
