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.

Is Rek'Sai better when played alongside Karma?

There is no top ally for Rek'Sai that will always be his best ally. Yet, Karma is a very typical teammate for Rek'Sai. By locking into the same team as Rek'Sai, she drops their win rate by -0.2% to 48.2%. This proves that there is a weak synergy between Rek'Sai and Karma that allows them to perform worse together than without each other.

Karma has a greater difficulty than Rek'Sai. That means you must be very careful when arranging Karma comrades to go into battle on the same side as, as they will need a greater level of skill to play well with you.

When playing alongside, you will likely witness an overall large increase in your team’s ability to tank a lot of damage. When paired, these champs will be a great protective duo.

Conversely, by grouping Rek'Sai and Karma together, you will not be providing your other teammates a lot of anti-tank damage dealing potential. Plan to pick other champs on your team that offsets this disparity in their capabilities.

Regardless of your Karma ally's ability, you need to focus on maximizing your gold income, outlasting your enemies, and clearing objectives. If you heed this simple advice, you should do well anyway.
