Tips for Playing as Karma with Nasus
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 Understand How Nasus Will Play
Paying attention to last hitting with Siphoning Strike will have a large impact at the end of a game.
If you're solo, Spirit Fire is a great way to farm a lane. It can be bad if you're in a lane with 2 and you push too far. Find the right balance between Siphoning Strike last hits and AoE farming.
If you have low defenses, people will focus you down even during your ultimate. Try buying some survivability items even in your DPS builds.
Karma Nasus Synergy Stats
How to Play with Nasus as Karma in LoL
The Karma Nasus synergy stats shown here demonstrate the areas of her gameplay that do better (or worse) when paired with Nasus, compared to her overall stats. Significant differences are areas of focus that highlight how her gameplay changes when paired with this other champion.
Overall, Karma sees a very large drop in her KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Nasus. His KDA went down from NaN to NaN. This negative change shows that Nasus helps Karma perform worse in competitive League games. Yet, the small difference proves that this performance change is only marginal.
When Karma plays on the same team as Nasus, she observes a barely noticable drop in her complete damage dealt. This change could signal that Nasus does not help cover for her to deal more damage or that his presence also helps extend the match's duration. Similarly, when Karma is played together with Nasus on the same team, he usually scores many fewer killing sprees compared to when she plays without Nasus. This is contrasting evidence that she is worse when playing alongside Nasus.
Additionally, when Karma plays with Nasus on the same side, she often takes a little less damage than when she plays alone. Taking not as much damage could mean that Nasus does a decent job of protecting Karma during team fights.

Nasus has a greater difficulty than Karma. That means you should be cautious when enlisting Nasus teammates to go into battle on the same side as, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to do well with you.
When playing cooperatively, Karma players should see an overall large increase in your team’s capacity to deal magical damage. Combined, these champions can deal quite a lot of AP type damage.
In contrast, by bringing Karma and Nasus together, you may not be providing your team enough sustained damage output. Plan to bring other champs on your team that helps cover this gap in their capabilities.
Regardless of your Nasus ally's ability, you should focus on maximizing your income, warding to avoid ambushes, and taking down objectives. If you do this, you should do well anyway.
