The Karma Aatrox synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Aatrox, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.
Overall, Karma sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Aatrox. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Aatrox helps Karma perform poorer in ranked LoL rounds. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.
When Karma tries to synergize with Aatrox, she gets a barely noticable drop in her complete damage dealt. This change could signal that Aatrox does not help cover for her to deal more damage or that his presence on the team also helps extend the game's duration. Similarly, when Karma is played together with Aatrox on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays without Aatrox. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Aatrox.
Moreover, when Karma plays with Aatrox on the same team, she on average takes a little less damage than when she plays alone. Taking not as much damage may indicate that Aatrox does a decent job of covering Karma during teamfights.
There is no one best synergy for Karma that will always be her best teammate. However, Aatrox is a very typical teammate for Karma. By playing on the same team as Karma, he raises their win rate by 0.7% to 49.0%.
