Mordekaiser vs Karma Matchup Summary

The Mordekaiser vs Karma matchup is a decisive matchup in League of Legends ranked play. Based on 5 recent matches analyzed, Karma wins with a 80.0% win rate compared to Mordekaiser's 20.0%, giving Karma a 60.0 percentage point advantage. Karma dominates at every stage — from early laning through late game team fights. This consistent advantage makes it difficult for Mordekaiser players to find favorable windows, so team-dependent strategies and avoiding solo confrontations are essential. The most significant statistical gap is in crowd control, where Karma leads by 1.1s CC/min — a difference that heavily influences the outcome of trades and skirmishes. Karma has a strong advantage in this matchup. Mordekaiser players should play defensively, prioritize safe farming under tower, and look for opportunities created by jungle pressure or Karma overextending. Avoid prolonged trades and wait for team fights where positioning and coordination matter more. Understanding these matchup dynamics is essential for champion select decisions and in-game strategy when facing this lane opponent.

Damage
548Mordekaiser
705Karma

10,067Mordekaiser

Utility
0.5Mordekaiser
1.6Karma
Karma brings significantly more crowd control than Mordekaiser, with 1.1 more seconds of CC per minute. This large utility gap makes Karma far more valuable in setting up jungle ganks, controlling objectives, and locking down targets in team fights. Mordekaiser should invest in tenacity and position carefully to avoid being chain-CC'd.
Sustain
1,352Mordekaiser
978Karma
Mordekaiser vastly out-sustains Karma, healing and mitigating 374 more damage per minute. This massive durability gap means Mordekaiser can absorb significant punishment and remain in lane while Karma is forced to recall.
