From the sounds of things, Karma's a more aggressive-style support, would that be correct? Gotta say I like aggressive supports better than defensive supports...just plays more to my style since I mainly play mid with aggressive champs (Karthus is my main, but I also favor Ahri and Katarina). That's why right now Zyra's my favorite support (to be fair, I've only played 2: her and Sona :p). I might give Karma a try the next time she's in rotation.

She can still be alright when played passively, but shines if you can get proper poke. Her main downside is that she isn't always super useful in the late game, since she doesn't have the utility or play-making potential of other supports, nor is she a tank. Probably why she doesn't see much play in professional LoL. But she is very versatile. An ult super-powered Q can still be surprisingly effective for weakening the enemy carries, but it takes some practice to not get caught out when doing so. And her speed boosts are good for getting around to place wards.

It still makes me laugh when an enemy AP rushes Luden's Echo then asks me in all chat how I 1v1'd them when my items are pretty much mana regen and maybe half an Hourglass. Nice 120 AP item, be a shame if I had an ult that takes 80% of your combined AP then slaps you across the face with it... The legitimate oneshots lategame still surprises me. Flash R on a full health Cassiopeia and she just dies.

"/all Outplayed"
As someone who mains a Mythic Cassiopeia ... I can confirm this is extremely true to the point it makes me cringe.

19 kills and 4 deaths, I am acing it with my girl in mid lane. Getting all of those kills, helping others survive their lanes by surprise assaults, and even wrecking the dragon when jungler is to busy farming elsewhere. Suddenly, a god dang 12 kills and 7 deaths Rengar does his ult and kills me at FULL HEALTH, one shot kill.

My disbelief and frustration still carries to this day when remembering a few champions being able to kill me in one hit, specifically if their build + abilities allow it. Luckily most are to scared in engaging a strong Cassiopeia player because being paralyzed for 3 seconds while being poisoned + spammed with fang strikes that deals insane damage with no CD is ... horrifying. It's actually advised in most guides to NOT solo a late game Cassiopeia because she can wreck in 1v1. In ganks, she isn't as tough unless fed.
Then the Rengo just repeats that every time a fight breaks out then dies to your team immediately because he's a squishy piece of fuck, especially when behind.

>Acquire carry
>Jump carry
>Delete carry
>Die to the other 4 people you just jumped into

Classic suicide bomber Rengo.

It actually can work too which is fucking disgusting. It's a tactic that gets hard countered by buying an Hourglass though, it's my favourite item in the entire game. He jumps and you just go gold and his tactic just skips past the other 3 points and goes right into point 4.

Honestly I play nothing but Team Builder now because Ranked is a bit too tryhardy and I honestly have no desire to raise my rank at all when I probably could get Gold if I really tried, i'm well out of Bronze and that's basically all I care about. Point is I can buy Zhonya's Hourglass on every single character I play because "lol Normals XD"

The reaction from this Zed ulting me and suddenly a fed(ish) Caitlyn gold's through all of his damage was fucking priceless the other day. Seriously I might argue that the active benefits AD Carries just as much as APs in fights. "This is why I need a Zhonya's!" Keyori is right.

I'm tempted to make an NA account to E-stalk all of your games get some games with you, it sounds like fun. I just really hate smurfing though and I won't have every single Champion on it :(

The only ability that is congruent with the "time" concept is his ult.
Everything else could also fit on any other generic mage or assassin (what even is the point of creating an afterimage that shoots the aoe? Just shoot the aoe if you don't do anything interesting with afterimages anyway. Also why does it give him a shield and doesn't do time stuff like speeding allies up?? At which point did the designers connect the concept of "time" with "hey let's give him a shield!"?).

Zilean does "time mage" much better, he applies the concept to cooldowns, slows, speedups, death rewinds, faster leveling and timed damage. Much deeper than this.
