Senna vs Karma

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Use brush control to deny Karma's poke angles and protect your ADC's positioning.
Play around your root (W) to punish Karma's overextensions with ADC follow-up.
Prioritize lane space and vision to limit Karma's roaming and shield utility.

Trading pattern

Trade with autos and (Q) from max range, holding (W) to root Karma or her ADC when they overstep.
Avoid using (W) without ADC follow-up to prevent wasted cooldowns.
Hold peel cooldowns for Karma's empowered root or engage attempts to protect ADC access.

Danger windows

Karma's empowered (W) root threatens engage when tethered; hold peel and position safely.
(R) (Q) poke combined with (E) shield allows Karma's ADC to trade aggressively; avoid extended fights during this.
Karma's roaming windows after wave push can leave your ADC vulnerable; maintain river vision and ward deep.

Early game

Track level 2 race closely and only contest wave if your ADC can follow your (W) root.
Deny Karma brush control to reduce her poke and root threat.
Use wave state to create safe poke windows and prevent Karma's ADC from trading under shield.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks your (Q)+(W) combo; use it to threaten trades when Karma's engage is down.
Level 3 enables mist reposition (E) for safer poke and peel; use brush control to maximize root follow-up.
Level 6 global shield (R) enhances all-in and peel; coordinate with ADC for river or dragon fights.

Win conditions

Convert brush control and root picks into denied enemy ADC positioning and safe ADC poke.
Use global shield (R) around dragon and river setups to secure objectives and protect ADC.
Scale through soul collection and long-range poke while forcing Karma to waste shields inefficiently.
