Scarizard also posted to give additional insight into the Karma W change mentioned above.
"Hey dudes, so this patch of PBE has a pretty significant change to Karma's Mantra'd W:
Scarizard

Renewal now heals for 20% of Karma's Missing Health (+1% per 100AP)
We're hoping for this change to clarify the use-case of W vs the other empowered abilities. These number's aren't final (even post-release, we'll be watching and tuning Karma) but thought that this would help to explain when you're supposed to use it.
W2 is already great in trades/duels, especially in the laning phase, and by making it scale naturally with the amount of damage you've taken during an engagement sets the spell up to be a powerful 1v1 reversal mechanism - but also gives you enough life up-front in those ticks to survive long enough to connect with the root and continue kiting, whereas before without enough AP to make the per-tick heal viable you'd often kill yourself attempting to see it through. Let me know what y'all think!"
Balance Changes
