Overall, Karma sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Syndra. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN. This fall shows that Syndra helps Karma perform not as well in ranked League of Legends matches. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is only marginal.

When Karma is paired with Syndra, she gets a moderate decrease in her total damage dealt. This change could indicate that Syndra does not provide cover for her to dish out more damage or that her presence also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Karma is played together with Syndra 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 alongside Syndra.

Moreover, when Karma plays with Syndra on the same team, she often receives a little less damage than when she fights alone. Receiving not as much damage may indicate that Syndra does a decent job of protecting Karma during teamfights.

Is Karma better when played alongside Syndra?

There is no top synergy for Karma that will no matter what be her ideal teammate. However, Syndra is a very typical companion for Karma. By playing on the same side as Karma, she decreases their win rate by -0.7% to 47.6%. This shows that there is not really a strong strategic relationship between Karma and Syndra that allows them to perform worse together than alone.

Syndra has a greater difficulty than Karma. That means Karma players must be very careful when finding Syndra comrades to play with, as they will require a greater level of skill to be able to work well with you.

Working alongside, Karma players should witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to deal magic damage. When paired, these champions can blast through enemies with magic damage.

In contrast, by aligning Karma and Syndra together, you will not be providing your team much sustained damage output. We recommend you have other champs on your team that neutralizes this relative disparity in their playstyle.

Regardless of the ability of your Syndra ally, you should focus on increasing your gold income, staying alive by avoiding foolish fights, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you will do well anyway.
