Played a match against Renekton an hour ago, and he had more of every stat the entire match, since Alot of people complain about Ren's nerfs, why not give Garen a few buffs to his base stats?
He got the passive regen buff
If you don't take the junglers into account Garen has been able to push Renekton out of lane for a long time now. Even back when Renekton was a pick or ban top laner Garen could beat him in lane. It's his dash and CC that made him better in the long run.
The one thing Garen has on Renekton is sustain, and you have to abuse that sustain early to keep an advantage on him once he builds his Hydra. That and you have to not die to a gank, as that will rocket Renekton ahead of you.
So, give Garen more what? AA damage, or more scaling on his E? His regen is already solid.
"Garen is out scaled by Renekton in terms of damage, armor, magic resist, health at all levels"
This is actually a false statement. Garen always has more base health than Renekton, has more base armor at low levels, and has slightly higher base damage than Renekton at higher levels.
