He's earned in both singles and team play. Karma has reached the peak of Major League Gaming's world-class competition. He holds what can only be described as a dynasty, Karma's incredible unbeaten streak in 1v1 competition dates back to the 2005 season. Karma's singles game is marked by an unparalleled ability to aggressively fortify a stage's vantage points and force his opponents to approach from disadvantageous positions. In stark contrast, he adopts a supporting role during team play, enabling his teammates to step into the more glorified slaying roles.
