Advice to Understand How Akshan Will Play
Raising an eyebrow in the face of danger, Akshan fights evil with dashing charisma, righteous vengeance, and a conspicuous lack of shirts. He is highly skilled in the art of stealth combat, able to evade the eyes of his enemies and reappear when they least expect him. With a keen sense of justice and a legendary death-reversing weapon, he rights the wrongs of Runeterra's many scoundrels while living by his own moral code: “Don't be an ass.”

Overall, Karma sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Akshan. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN.

This change may signal that Akshan does not help cover for her to dish out more damage or that their support also helps extend the round's duration. Similarly, when Karma is played alongside Akshan on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Akshan.
Additionally, when Karma plays with Akshan on the same team, she on average takes a little more damage than when she plays alone. Taking more damage may mean that Akshan does a poor job of covering Karma during teamfights.

There is no ideal synergy for Karma that will always be her best ally. However, Akshan is a relatively poor teammate for Karma. By being on the same side as Karma, they drops their win rate by -1.9% to 46.4%. This demonstrates that there is a bad bond between Karma and Akshan that allows them to perform worse together than alone.
Akshan has a much lower diffuclty than Karma. That means Karma players don't need to be cautious when finding Akshan teammates to fight alongside, as they will require a much lower level of skill to fight well with you.
Fighting alongside, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to buff allies and debuff enemies. Together, these champions will help their other teammates secure a victory.
In contrast, by pairing Karma and Akshan together, you will not be giving your other teammates enough AD. Plan to bring other champions on your team that fills this relative disparity in this pairing's capabilities.
Regardless of your Akshan ally's ability, you need to focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
