Looking back at this thread a while later, I noticed some massive cognitive dissonance going on...

"In lane every assasin can kill him nonstop"

"at top you will face... Xin. Or Rene. Or even Jayce. Sometimes Kha too"

"hitting with Q is goddamn high, when they don't run for their lives and have time to dodge properly."

And yet suddenly when it's The Amazing Jungle Karthus (who I might note doesn't even have any combat items early on):

"Mundo, Udyr or that Shyvana etc could be easy killed with superior Q damage."

Yup, the same guy who allegedly dies nonstop in lane will suddenly inspire fear in the early game monsters of the jungle, making them run in fear while he bombards them with his superior Qs. But even if they stand and fight there's no matching Karthus on DPS so they lose anyway!

So... why does he lose in lane in the first place if he's such a fantastic duelist that no-one can take him? Especially given that in lane he has minion aggro on his side, whereas his Q doesn't draw aggro.
