Guide to Synergizing Karma and Ahri

Tips for Playing as Karma with Ahri

Don't be too conservative with Mantra. Gathering Fire is strongest in teamfights, making it easy to recharge Mantra multiple times.

Gathering Fire rewards aggressive play. Look to land abilities and basic attacks on your opponent to lower Mantra's cooldown and stay on the offensive.

When using Focused Resolve, slow your opponents with Inner Flame or speed yourself up with Inspire if you're having trouble sticking to a target.

Advice to Understand How Ahri Will Play

Initiate team fights using Charm, and chase down stragglers with Spirit Rush.

Spirit Rush enables Ahri's abilities, it opens up paths for Charm, helps double hitting with Orb of Deception, and closes to make use of Fox-Fire.

Use Charm to set up your combos, it will make landing Orb of Deception and Fox-Fire dramatically easier.

How to Play with Ahri as Karma in LoL

The Karma Ahri synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Ahri, 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 large worsening in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Ahri. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This worsening shows that Ahri helps Karma perform worse in ranked League matches. Yet, the small difference indicates that this performance change is not very impactful.

When Karma is paired with Ahri, she sees a little drop in her total damage output. This change may demonstrate that Ahri does not provide protection for her to dish out more damage or that her presence on the team also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Karma is played with Ahri on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing synergisticly with Ahri.

Moreover, when Karma plays with Ahri on the same team, she usually takes a little less damage than when she fights alone. Receiving not as much damage could mean that Ahri does a decent job of covering Karma in team fights.

Is Karma better when played alongside Ahri?

There is no one best synergy for Karma that will 100% of the time be her #1 teammate. However, Ahri is a not very good teammate for Karma. By playing on the same team as Karma, she drops their win rate by -1.3% to 47.0%. This signals that there is a negative synergy between Karma and Ahri that allows them to perform not as well together than alone.

Ahri has a lower difficulty than Karma. That means you don't need to be very careful when arranging Ahri teammates to play with, as they will require a relatively low level of skill to fight well with you.

Working alongside, Karma players will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magic damage. When paired, these champs are able to dish out a surprising amount of magic type damage.

Conversely, by aligning Karma and Ahri together, you may not be providing your other teammates enough sustained damage output. Make sure to pick other champs on your team that offsets this relative hole in their kit.

Regardless of the ability of your Ahri ally, you should focus on maximizing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
