The Zeri Karma synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of their gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Karma, compared to their overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how their gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.
Overall, Zeri sees a large worsening in their KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Karma. His KDA decreased from NaN to NaN. This decrease shows that Karma helps Zeri perform poorer in competitive League matches. Yet, the small difference demonstrates that this performance change is not very impactful.
When Zeri is an ally to Karma, they gets a barely noticable drop in their total damage output. This change could demonstrate that Karma does not help protection for them to dish out more damage or that her presence on the team also helps increase the match's duration. Similarly, when Zeri is played with Karma on the same side, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees than when they plays alone. This is contrasting evidence that they is worse when playing with Karma.
Additionally, when Zeri plays with Karma on the same side, they on average takes a little less damage than when they plays alone. Receiving not as much damage could mean that Karma does a decent job of protecting Zeri in team fights.

By playing on the same side as Zeri, she increases their win rate by 0.1% to 46.3%.
