I think it is probably the fact that, no matter how many times a Karthus dies, he can easily get fed by the time late game starts. This is manily due to his ult, which can give you easy kills during early and mid game.

Aside form that, Karthus is a dps caster. While most burst casters fall off by late game, Karthus doesn't. He can keep dishing out damage and due to this, he can be fiercely useful for the whole teamfight.

On top of that, add a passive which gives a 7 second free damage to your enemy. If by some back luck that your team got the enemy Karthus fed, chances are, you guys have lost the game.
