Vision deficit: Struggling in both the matchup and vision control (0.89 vs 0.96 wards/min) demands defensive warding and heavy jungle coordination. Outclassed across the board: Karma leads in both matchup win rate (53.3%) and damage (437 vs 400/min). Seraphine must seek alternative win conditions through macro play and team coordination.

How to Beat Karma as Seraphine (Support)

Difficult matchup requiring deep understanding of game mechanics and flawless execution. Patience and proper macro play are the keys to victory in this confrontation.

The magic damage that Seraphine deals remains relevant in the late game. Look for opportunities to initiate or counter-initiate. Meanwhile, Karma deals primarily magic damage (86.02%), additional magic resistance may be required.

Consider the excellent vision control demonstrated by Karma, ranking 9th (versus 26th for Seraphine) in ward placement among supports. This means the opponent provides better map vision for their team. Meanwhile, their higher KDA (2.8 versus 2.7) suggests they participate more effectively in team fights.

Key aspects of the Seraphine Support versus Karma Support matchup

In this difficult confrontation, it is critically important for the Seraphine player to avoid attempts to force trades and all-ins with the Karma player, as the matchup requires a patient and calculated approach. Extended trades without clear tactical advantage often lead to unfavorable consequences, and ignoring opportunities to receive team support can be a fatal mistake for game progression.

Playing Against Karma

  • Karma's passive lowers her Mantra cooldown when she hits enemy champions with abilities and basic attacks. Deny her from getting free hits on you.
  • Karma's Soulflare erupts for bonus damage in the area in which it's placed. React quickly and escape the circle to avoid taking heavy damage.
  • Focused Resolve is a strong disengage tool. Create distance to avoid being rooted and seek to engage afterwards.
