@Meddler How do you feel about Garen's CDs and Ability Durations getting buffed and standardized?

There's only two things I would change here... One obviously being your nerf to his ult with no compensation. If the other changes offered a significant boost in power I'd be fine with it, but Garen's early/mid game is where he is supposed to shine.

The other would be removing the self applied slow on E instead of the CD change. It's his main damage source, and is fairly balanced cooldown wise to allow counterplay, while remaining strong. The slow, however, was needed before mobility creep was so set in. It might be time to lose that little feature.

What nerf to his ult? Its a straight buff. I reduced his R CD by 40/20/0 seconds

"Mobility Creep" has been complained about since the game was in beta.
