^^ okay, this is wrong. Kamakazi Karthus = feeding karthus.

Orianna has lots of utility. She's more micromanagment than Karth, but doesn't have as much sustained DPS. She's less farm oriented, but a burst champion. Karthus has superior sustained DPS, and is a hypercarry with the ability to win by hitting r at the right time, but his positioning is much more important, and he has different utility in teamfights. His laning is strong, but aggrassive opponents will destroy you. His early game sucks. His ability to farm is stupid, against a passive or scared lane, but aggressive opponents will kill him. Ori isn't this way, as her burst is higher. Other APs tend to be the same way. They will lose their effectiveness late game, but KArthus continues to scale well throughout. he is, however, difficult to use as a noob, but if you can play a champ like Ori, you can likely manage Karthus.
