What is with Garen and Lux

Is it just me, or are both the Crownguards super powerful. I can only think of 4 games I've lost playing either of them out of the (about) 30 of them I've played.

Rito plz Lux Garen

i like how garen turned out after his rework.

he has a significant skillcap now. from what ive seen, completely new garen palyers at plat and upwards have noticably below 50% winrate on him. and experienced garen players get up to almost 60%.

not to mention the fact, that he actually is generally viable in higher ranked games now, which is great.

so much for the myth that anyone can pick him up and immediately do well with him.

both of their kits are actually really well balanced. their strengths and weaknesses are clear and polar opposites.

Both are very strong in their respective roles. Lux especially. I have a very hard time with her mid lane if I cannot avoid her slow-stun-ult combo.

Lux has a 2 second level 1 snare. Before you'd require some serious mispositioning to get ccd long enough for it to matter that much. But then when Lux players asked for E to either be able to clear minions or not cost 1 million mana, riot buffed her E so it full snares all targets hit.

So because you did well means they are broken.
