It wouldn't make any sense to nerf her ult or heck nerf her at all even more so make her Ult do significantly less damage than before.

Oh look Karma rework leak.

Idk man it just seems off to me.

If that is what they changed...why?

Balance is a fool's master.

Hey dudes! As you might know by now, i'm heading up the Karma Relaunch from the design side, and i bring good news - we are changing her kit. While i don't want to go too in-depth just yet, i wanted to drop in to this thread and answer this question, as it's one i've heard a lot and am sure will continue to be a concern.

Karma was re-imagined in our eyes as a support-mage. Think Lux, Morgana, Orianna - the kinds of characters that scale just as well with ability power as they do cooldown reduction and provide a lot to the team in the way of supporting their efforts. As a support-mage, she won't necessarily have the exact same specialized strengths as say Nami or Thresh (who were primarily designed as duo-lane support champions), but brings a mixed bag of damage and utility that we hope will leave you able to affect the outcome of teamfights and skirmishes alike no matter what lane you want to take her.

I'll be back with specifics on her abilities and mechanics as we get closer to her PBE release.

I like this a lot.

Also,

i assume you're referring to the changes that just went out to the pbe. i've seen a bit of misunderstanding on how they work, so i'll quickly explain the new functionality that we're currently testing:
- when a mimic'd spell damages an opponent, it deals 125/200/275 (+0.6 ap) magic damage.

this means that a rank 1 mimic'd sigil of silence with 100 ap will deal 185 magic damage (regardless of sigil of silence's current rank) when it initially hits the target. it will deal an additional 185 magic damage when you 'pop' the sigil. that's a total of 370 magic damage for her rank 1 ult with 100 ability power [ 250 (+1.2 ap) ]. if you instead mimic'd ethereal chains, and get the snare, you would deal the same 370 magic damage (regardless of ethereal chain's current rank).

the point of the change is to allow leblanc the freedom to mimic spells based on which utility fits the situation the best at any given moment (i.e., silence, snare, or dash).

Apparently it's suppose to give her more freedom in ult choice, with more utility options, and has a .6 per AP not .2.

Still in testing but not as bad as it looked.

dat new karma

 

[Asdioh]

That splash art and model update look cool, but doesn't this mean that her ingame icon is going to look something like this?

o_o

If so, she and Teemo will be the only ones with closed eyes in their icon lol

 

[Vyke]

I am honestly in love with the new Karma, both her Default and the Traditional skin. I can't imagine how hard it was for Mogwai to not say anything about it, he must at least somewhat excited.

WHAT THE ****

****ING **** ******S

 

[Vyke]

It's the PBE. Changes are not final, they are experimental.

 

[Leacero]

good, singed should be hit. that dude is obnoxious.

 

[john!]

i agree. but do you really think he dominates top lane enough to warrant nerfs? he has quite a few counters.

 

[Vyke]

Sure, but when he isn't countered or outright stomped in his lane, he's behind your tower farming with his get out of jail free card ready. And that's a terrible feeling not many champs can come close to inflicting on you.

 

[Wave⁂]

Being able to farm behind your tower is who Singed is. Take away that, and Singed loses a lot of his identity.

 

[Vyke]

No, flinging people into your team and playing cat and mouse with people is who Singed is. God help us if he needs to buy Merc Treads to do it.

 

[Player-3]

please tell me what counters singed

[#HBC | Red Ryu]

He needed tweaking....still I think people are kinda dumb when they face him.

 

[john!]

please tell me what counters singed

most ranged heroes, for starters...

i'm not saying the lane is unwinnable for singed, nor am i saying that singed isn't strong/OP, but i hope they nerf some of the many things that are more imbalanced than singed is.

 

[Player-3]

most ranged heroes, for starters...

hahahahahahahahaha NOPE

singed is 2nd strongest character in the game atm right behind taric

 

[Mogwai]

You appear to have misspelled 'Rumble' there.

 

[ShroudedOne]

^ What I was thinking.

 

[Supermodel From Paris]

I really like the new Karma and I really like the new design direction they're taking for her kit. The game needs more Lux/Morgana support-mage hybrids, it's a very fun playstyle that I don't feel has been explored as much as it could be.

What's baffling me a bit is all the complaining about her becoming "more sexual" around the internet. This isn't 1910. She's a mage wearing a sleeveless dress with a slit. It's a leg, people. lol

 

[Vyke]

Legs are just too sexual man.

 

[KuroganeHammer]

Really mad with rioto. Having BS game troubles, everyone in the game kept DC'ing, and two of our team members in a ranked game didn't reconnect because of Riot's ****ty servers, and we never got a loss forgiven or w/e it is.

dumb.

 

[Sinister Slush]

Quality Rito.

Naaaaaaahhh

the things is that every single female champ basically looks like this, minus leona. It's just kind of tiresome to have all these samey designs. also the new default looks terrible compared to the "traditional" but that's my opinion

 

[Player-3]

I like boobies you guys shut the **** up


Fking nerds

 

[Coney]

i

you LOST!

NOOOO! I sad now.

What happened to make you lose other than the DC I left to do homework when you won the 4 AP game.

ad carries just...exploding every fight. prob spent too much time trying to support them instead of getting enemy carries.

second attempt will be tonight, i'll link in this thread, get hype

 

[fkacyan]

A game in which every female sans Annie and Anivia are rocking 34/26/34 at LEAST and another character looks attractive? We're complaining? What?

Why on earth would anybody complain about attractive designs? It's a commercial game designed to sell skins and whatnot, a newer, more modern (and somewhat racy) design will sell better.

New Karma looks pretty fantastic imo.

 

[Pikaville]

So playing Taric top and building him like Ryze is just hilarious.

Muramana, Frozen Fist, Frozen Heart, RoA and Banshees Veil.

[What's The Point]

In case anyone didn't know, if you own Karma before her rework you get a free skin.
