What Are Peoples Thoughts on a Karnak Buff of Mine?

Recently pulled a 5 Star Karnak out of a Dual Class Crystal, and played around with him in RoL with a few different synergies. I wanted to see if i could solo RoL with him at rank 1 Lvl. 25. I was disappointed after it took me almost 600 hits just to get WS down. So,... I got to thinking. What would a Karnak buff look like? And here is a small, but amazing buff that I could see him having and could still fit his play style and character:
Adding on to his Passive "Focus" ability.
- While Focused, Karnak studies his opponent further, gaining an indefinite Cruelty every 10 seconds increasing Critical Damage Rating by (50, 75, 100). Each Cruelty also reduces Defensive Ability Accuracy by 4%. If Focused is lost, all Cruelty expire instantly. Max Stack: 25
Adding on to his True Strike.
-While True Strike is active, Karnak gains a 3% chance per Cruelty to Armor Break the opponent, reducing Armor Rating by 250 for 12 seconds.
-While the opponent suffers from an Armor Break and True Strike is active, critical hits deal an additional 1% damage as a burst of Physical Damage (Scales with Critical Damage Rating instead of Attack Rating).
So, let me know your thoughts. Does he needs more then that, or does that little addition sound good for a champ that is lacking some love?

But I'd say, keep his poison resistance, but make his debuff shrug count for all debuffs, including DoT.
That would actually make him more solid.
Some safety would also be necessary, as getting hit once would mean losing practically everything. For example, Heavy Attacks could activate a 15-second Combo Shield, which is refreshed on Heavy Attacks at the cost of 5 hits off the Combo Meter.
Otherwise, your idea's quite good! I'd love to see this in-game.
