Janna vs Karma

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Deny Karma's poke by shielding ADC and holding (Q) for predictable engages through brush.
Control brush to limit Karma's poke angles and protect ADC from her root follow-ups.
Maintain a stable lane state prioritizing ADC safety and peel over aggressive trades.

Trading pattern

Hold (Q) for Karma's empowered root engage and use (E) shield to enable ADC trades.
Use (W) slow only when safe to back off, ensuring peel is available for ADC follow-up.
Synchronize peel cooldowns to disrupt Karma's poke and punish her when (R) is down.

Danger windows

(R) (Q) poke combined with ADC trades creates high poke pressure; shield accordingly.
Empowered (W) root after Karma's tether forces cautious positioning to avoid ADC lockdown.
Karma's poke and shield synergy when wave is pushed makes ADC vulnerable to follow-up damage.

Early game

Track level 2 race closely; use (Q) plus shield to counter Karma's early poke and root.
Keep brush warded and deny Karma brush control to reduce her poke and engage angles.
Avoid pushing wave unnecessarily to prevent Karma from safely poking and setting up vision.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (Q) knockup and (E) shield; use this to contest (R) poke.
Level 3 grants full peel kit; leverage brush control and (Q) to deny Karma's root and poke.
Level 6 (R) resets fights; use it to interrupt Karma's engage and protect your ADC during all-ins.

Win conditions

Deny Karma's engage angles by controlling brush and baiting her (R) cooldowns.
Use (E) shield and (R) ultimate to protect scaling ADC and reset unfavorable fights.
Set river vision and coordinate roams after wave crashes to secure dragon and mid pressure.

Tip: For Janna vs Karma, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Support lane check.
