Tips for Playing as Kayle with Karma
Kayle benefits greatly from Attack Damage and Ability Power, making hybrid items like Nashor's Tooth and Hextech Gunblade very effective on her.
Using Divine Judgment on a high-DPS ally can turn the tides of battle by giving your ally free reign to attack.
Kayle's attacks become incredibly powerful once she gains attack range from Divine Ascent. Play safe until then.
Advice to Understand How Karma Will Play
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.
