Guide to Countering Quinn as Karma

Tips for Playing as Karma against Quinn

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.

Advice to Win Against Quinn

After being marked, move away from Quinn so she can't take advantage of it.

Keep tabs on Quinn's position. Behind Enemy Lines can enable Valor to cross the map very quickly and attack you by surprise.

When Quinn is using Behind Enemy Lines, damaging her removes her Move Speed bonus temporarily.
