I realize my comparison is pretty retarded but I don't think that her skills are any stronger than any other champion. The only thing she has going for her is that R+E is insanely strong but her other abilities even with mantra are pretty average. I don't think her RE makes up for an ultimate. Same with udyr, turtle and bear stance are good, but not WTFOP, while tiger is really good, but imo not compareable to having an ultimate and a decent Q. | ||

But on the subject of Karma, you're just not seeing good ones. RQ is absurdly strong, RE is absurdly strong and each of her abilities on their own, coupled with her passive, are all very high power level. The character is quite good, she just doesn't fit easily onto a standard team comp. It's literally the exact same problem as Lux and Morgana (support/nuker who needs farm). | ||

Karma is also impossible to towerdive and is pretty good at holding towers. She is really a nuker that happens to have a shield and an aoe heal and a speedboost. Also, tethering W feels really weak right now. | ||

If a Cassadin builds Rylai's scepter it drives me up the wall to no end. Damn snake bitch slithers up and down the lane whilst you run back and forth like a cripple trying to either get away or catch up, neither of wich a good Cassadin is going to have any. | ||

He's dutch, he means Cassiopeia. 'snake bitch slithers' is a pretty dead give away. He should proof-read his posts, though. | ||

i'm trying to get a ranked win with every champ and i've been waiting years for gragas/karma. i see that gragas hasn't been free in months, too bad i just bought him. watch him be free next week FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU also cass is bad, karma is bad, everything they do can be done by other champs more efficiently and with less farm also the new gold/5 changes are going to make taric top-tier support imo. i think he's the only support who can viably take a philo, a HoG, and a Kage's and put them all to use. maybe soraka and sona can get by with a philo + Kage's, but then you've also got taric's stun. taric + cait bot lane 4lyfe | ||

I posted some math in Karma's thread which correlates your opinion that Mantra'd W sucks. I personally think Karma's W should nuke its direct target if it's an enemy (it's not intuitive that it doesn't). Mantra'd W would be more compelling if they tripled the haste effect while still only doubling the snare. | ||

and like, isn't the point that you're making not about acquiring gold/10, not HP or AP specifically? I mean, sure, getting reverie quicker is better in the short term, but if you're trying to gear up for late game based on the idea that you're not last hitting, every support will do AOK just grabbing kage + philo + HoG. And I mean, you can also simulate the 2 philo effect pretty well by just quickly upgrading 1 to a miracle (or reverie) and then sitting on Miracle + Philo in lane. *shrugs*, I just see a lot of kage + philo + HoG based builds in the future if they don't do anything else to g/10. | ||

i think he is referring to the fact that a cassadin brings to mind a half snake void monster with a huge purple lazor sword, which would make any reasonable person's head explode edit: and sry for doublepost, but my browser is being weird and not letting me copypasta stuff | ||

In teamfight she pretty much just spams Q after pooping the W every couple seconds. Which of course is really strong by itself. The ulti can be super strong if you combo it well, and she's one of the few casters who can 1v1 a melee DPS Still think he's slightly UP because she tends to be useless outside of teamfights since her Q is so easy to dodge with tier 2 boots. Btw did you know Riot lists Heimer as support and Janna as mage | ||

Philo is great because of its highly efficient regen stats. But as a support, you don't get the farm to grab a couple of gold/10 items early enough to make them pay off before the game is over. At least not if you're buying wards. Gold/10 is great if the game is still not decided 35+ minutes in, but maybe such a long game is a direct result of stacking stat-inefficient items like Pick and HoG...? Also: Sheen Taric best Taric. | ||
