Tips for Playing as Vi with Karma
A fully charged Vault Breaker will deal double damage. It's great for catching and finishing off fleeing enemies.
Relentless Force does full damage to anyone caught in the shockwave. Use it on minions in lane to hit enemies hiding behind them.
Cease and Desist is a powerful initiation tool, just remember not to get too far ahead of the rest of your team.
Advice to Understand How Karma Will Play
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.
Vi Karma Synergy Stats
How to Play with Karma as Vi in LoL
The Vi Karma synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Karma, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.
Overall, Vi sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Karma. His KDA worsened from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Karma helps Vi perform poorer in competitive League rounds. Yet, the small difference shows that this performance change is not very impactful.
When Vi plays on the same team as Karma, she gets a small decrease in her full damage output. This difference may demonstrate that Karma does not support by providing protection for her to dish out more damage or that her allyship also helps increase the round's duration. Similarly, when Vi is played with Karma on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when she plays on his own. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing with Karma.
Additionally, when Vi plays with Karma on the same team, she typically receives a little less damage than when she plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage may indicate that Karma does a decent job of protecting Vi during teamfights.

Is Vi better when played alongside Karma?
There is no ideal synergy for Vi that will always be her ideal teammate. Yet, Karma is a relatively poor companion for Vi. By playing on the same team as Vi, she lowers their win rate by -1.8% to 49.8%. This shows that there is a bad strategic relationship between Vi and Karma that results in them performing not as well together than alone.
Karma has a greater difficulty than Vi. That means Vi players should be very careful when arranging Karma comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will require a greater level of skill to fight well with you.
Working together, you should expect to witness an overall large increase in your team’s capability to soak up damage. Combined, these champions will be a great protective duo.
Conversely, by pairing Vi and Karma together, you will not be granting your side very much anti-tank damage dealing potential. Plan to have other champions on your team that helps cover this relative gap in this pairing's playstyle.
Regardless of your Karma ally's skill level, you need to focus on maximizing your income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you do this, you should do well, regardless.
