I don't understand why you would use this card unless you want to avoid
1 and 6... would work really well when using drug tokens from club
vortex, and possibly help on harliquens game... but over all, I think
that It would be used against an opponent rather than one that helps out
the user. Also the cost of 1¥ for its effect is a little wrong since
deja vu and loaded dice are free. However if you wanted to spend nuyen
on a die roll, it might look something like this.

Name - Karma
Type - Stinger
Cost - X+1¥
Text - Play before a die roll is made. User may alter die roll by +1 or
-1 for every nuyen spent. This cannot modify a die roll lower than 1 or
higher than 6.

So if you really wanted a 6 you could dump 6¥ and be secure in that you
will get a 6, or the same way if you really want to roll a 1. I
wouldn't allow it to go higher or lower than 6, that could really be
abusive... Hi.. I'll spend 12¥ on this hellblast spell and kill off your
entire troll army.
