Read from Yuumi's seat: which stage windows this plan plays for against Karma.
| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Yuumi | Level 1 favours you — attached poke and heal-tempo edge a low-mana Karma before Mantra scales. |
| Level 2 | Yuumi | Level 2 favours you — your attach-Q spike out-pokes her while her Inner Flame is easily dodged. |
| Level 3 | Yuumi | Level 3 favours you — sustained Q chip and heal uptime keep you ahead in the early poke war. |
| Levels 4-5 | Karma | Levels 4-5 favour Karma — Mantra-Q's empowered burst and Mantra-E shield out-range and out-mitigate you. |
| Level 6 | Karma | Level 6 favours Karma — her always-online Mantra ult out-pokes and out-peels your comparatively weak Final Chapter. |
| First item | Karma | First item favours Karma — Malignance/Archangel's turns Mantra-Q into a nuke that pushes you off the wave. |
| Two+ items | Karma | 2+ items favour Karma — layered RQ poke and AoE shield-speed disengage control the lane. |
Levels 1-3 are yours: attached to your ADC you out-tempo a mana-limited Karma with steady Q-poke, and her Inner Flame is a lone skillshot you sidestep while her early Mantra ranks aren't enough to punish you. Her poke reaches your carry more reliably than yours reaches hers, so keep the heal-speed up preemptively. Stay attached, aim the missile only in the gaps, and let your ADC farm behind the wave rather than trading into a support who shields the chip straight back.

Start World Atlas + potions and back for Expect Executioner's — out-amp it. Build Moonstone first, then Redemption / Ardent, with (host's problem).
