This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Karma.

Is Jax better when played alongside Karma?
There is no ideal companion for Jax that will always be his best teammate. However, overall, Karma is a not very good ally for Jax. By locking into the same team as Jax, she drops their win rate by -2.4% to 48.4%. This demonstrates that there is a bad bond between Jax and Karma that results in them performing worse together than alone.
Karma has a lower difficulty than Jax. That means you don't need to be cautious when lining up Karma comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to cooperate well with you.
Playing on the same side, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magical damage. Combined, these champs can blast through enemies with magic damage.
In contrast, by pairing Jax and Karma together, you may not be providing your other allies very much sustained damage output. We recommend you bring other champs on your team that nullifies this gap in their kit.
Regardless of your Karma ally's ability, you need to focus on increasing your income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well, regardless.
