IDK if you've ever played Karma against competent opponents, but it's very difficult to land all 4 ticks of W on an enemy if they have any sort of CC or mobility. Not only this, but if it's a midlane AP Karma with a decent amount of health in a duel or small skirmish, her ult is probably available already if she's trying to land W because Q-W-R-Q is her main damage rotation. Add to this that W makes her very predictable for 2 seconds and makes her come to closer range than she generally likes and the 8-12 second cooldown reduction of her ults seems a lot less impressive.
