'''Karthus, the Deathsinger''' is a ranged [[mage]] [[champion]] whose abilities specialize in dealing heavy sustained damage in an area of effect fashion. Capable of dealing damage from both near and afar, '''Karthus''' excels at both inflicting constant harm to the enemy team from a distance as well as decimating the enemy team's collective health pool through the application of a high-risk, high-reward, self-destructive playstyle.
