The fact that her stats got nerfed a tidge so that she can be a true ranged character didn't help her top game, I imagine. That and Riot seems to want to get rid of multiple ways to play characters when that just simply will not work from a gameplay standpoint because of how diverse characters are at their core and getting rid of that would gut the core gameplay to a point of unplayability.

To that end, the old 'top Karma' was probably her weakest role of what she could do. Even if the rework went well it probably would've been gutted one way or another. Either way...it's sad to see such a play style go (like AP Yi, but less reviled).
