Garen is the best Anti-Tank Hero in League of Legends and here's why!

Let's take an example 4000Hp Mundo with 300 armor. I dived him,killed him in front of his tower and had half hp lol.(I obviously silenced him at 60% of his hp and just insta killed him with R,he wasn't able to press R)

Now here are the stats. Your E gives you 25% armor reduction. Black Cleaver is 24% Conqueror is 20% true damage. Your R passive(Villain) gives your basics to deal 1% of theire max hp.That's around 40 true damage per hit. Your ult(with villain) deals 40% of theire true damage,that's 1600+525= 2125 of Mundos HP(That's INSANE!) Lord Dominiks is 35% Bonus Armor pen,plus 0-20% physical dmg. Not to mention that you take Tenacity ,perhaps get Mercury,and with W you are somewhat CC imune. And Steraks keeps you somewhat tanky with your W passive.

Since Garen is easly kited,and tanks tend to come close in personal,you won't mind getting hit by cc and turning down and killing their overextended tank in seconds. I could even go as far as saying that you will delete 1 tank faster that Vayne/Yi/Kai'sa if that tank has villain in him because of your ult. I even made a video on this and somewhat people disagree with me,i don't know why tho. Anyways i know that Infinity is getting changed and the same goes for Lord Dominiks,but i still wanna get this out there.

Best? No Vayne and the others you mentioned are still better, but he is pretty darn good at laning against them since he does prefer to brawl and is not as weak to close range CC as they are. Also keep in mind his E can crit, and the new IE will deal true damage on crits, so that's a little more anti-tank if you can find another crit item you like.

Lord dominik get turned from bonus to total armor penetration so it will be even stronger.
