Fighting cooperatively, you should expect to see an overall large increase in your team’s capability to deal magic damage. Together, these two can blast through enemies with magic damage.
In contrast, by bringing Karma and Neeko together, you probably will not be giving your side very much sustained damage output. We recommend you have other champions on your team that helps cover this relative hole in this pairing's capabilities.
