A competent Karthus would ult before a major team fight if he needs to weaken the enemy when your team is forcing a fight. The weakened champions would either leave the fight (causing their team to be at a disadvantage) or risk everything for the fight. You know how risky it is to jump in a fight at half life, but when your enemy is focusing your teammate, would you still go in to save him? Most likely not, unless you are absolutely dependent on that character to carry your team.
