Garen "Rework" BROKEN AF.

As Garen being one of my favorite mains, I decided to try him out and I find that he's EXTREMELY broken. He literally two-shots ANY non-tank with Q->E, and brings down most tanks with such ease with several Q->E->Q->E->Ult combos. I recorded a video to show how broken he is now, and also a screenshot of my build that does an enormous amount of ridiculous damage with just two button presses and one click.

All non-tanks will cry.

I'm not complaining or anything, but it's going to be troublesome when people start using OP Garen builds that massacre through my future games.

He's naturally broken anyway.

-Manaless -Has a silence -Has a high magic damage execute (%HP added with justice) -Has a 30% bonus movement speed buff the doubles as an attack and a silence -Has unfair natural regen (can stay in lane forever, almost impossible to kill when played right)

Builds Black cleaver and is still tanky while dealing massive damage -Can dive your back line and still be an effective tank even if not attacking at all -Big hit box, good team fighter-----> works well with the regen

So why did riot nerf lee sin? Garen is the definition of overloaded, Wheres the counter play? The only way your going to do anything with garen is if the player is an idiot or you play a specific champ

Garen is the most broken champ as of the recent update. He can sit under a turret alone in a 1v1 unphased, take the turret and then proceed to kill the opponent who was attacking constantly. Yeah you took away some of his base movement speed but that didn't help anything. He'll either spin to do damage, or spin to do damage then run away, or spin, q, then ult cuz you cant run from him. Either way hes gonna stay alive. Disable this broken champ till you find a proper fix to his kit. He's out of control.

thats the entire idea behind it?

see that lategame nasus? thats what garen is supposed to be aswell. they made his early game significantly weaker, removed sticking power, mobility and tenacity to make him actually more threatening when he does get into melee.

edit.: LOL

yea that has nothing to do with the item combination at all. titanic hydra active, stattic shiv passive and an infinity edge empowered q crit on a squishy.

with these items, pre rework garen would have done the same thing.

ima actually suprised he built steraks instead of dead mans plate, for the slow and extra 100 damage with the q.

This is very reminiscent of what Garen would do BEFORE the rework when he built damage. Doesn't look out of place to me.
