Karma Item Build

AP LOADOUT · KARMA

Karma holds a midline position when the fight starts, close enough to slow a target with Spirit Bond while retaining room to shield an ally with Soul Shield. Her archived AP route commits to Morellonomicon, Rabadon's Deathcap, Zhonya's Hourglass, Void Staff, and Abyssal Scepter.

The AP variant prioritizes a five-item core of Morellonomicon, Rabadon's Deathcap, Zhonya's Hourglass, Void Staff, and Abyssal Scepter behind Sorcerer's Shoes. Flash and Ignite support its carry framing, while Rod of Ages, Shushei's Mana Jug, and Deathfire Grasp remain situational departures rather than mandatory purchases.

AP Karma Build

AP

Karma's single build here is a straight ability-power line with no concessions anywhere in it. Rabadon's Deathcap and Void Staff scale Heavenly Wave, Morellonomicon adds cooldown reduction that also speeds up Mantra's recharge, and Abyssal Scepter covers a resistance and a penetration in one purchase. Zhonya's Hourglass is the only defensive item, which is a real gap for a champion who has to stand close enough for Mantra to matter. The page opens on an Amplifying Tome with a Mana Potion rather than any health at all, so the early game depends entirely on Soul Shield covering the trades.

Our methodEvery Karma build here is reviewed by our editors before it ships. When a patch, balance change, or update touches Karma or the items in these builds, this page is re-reviewed and updated.
