garen needs to be reworked

So most people would disagree with me im sure but I play him and i feel broken when i do.

so to me having no cost isnt all to bad but when you combine that with a % hp regen passive, silence/slow remove/sprint, and a ult based off of hp missing. at the early game its not to strong but come mid game with a spirit visage and a warmongers. you regen form 1hp to full in less then a minute. I'm not saying his dmg or regen is broken what I'm saying is he needs to have another reason to B since he doesnt have to b for hp he can stay out there as long as he likes and free farm. So to me with his kit he needs to have mana cost so at some point he needs to B. I want to stess this he is not op he dmg and kit are fine but simply put the game revolves around farm and time in lane for exp and if you get ahead in gold or exp you have a really big advantage. that being said that is why i think he needs a reason to have to B besides to get items

Come mid game, that's not any different than anyone with Lifesteal/spellvamp just going to clear a minion wave and getting all of their health back that way. It's really not that great a passive and backing really does not incur a large disadvantage past laning. After that, players will back just to reposition.

hes actually in a pretty good spot right now. some minor buffs to his lategame and hes gonna be pretty good in solo que at most levels of play.

one of the ideas ive seen was to allow garen to ult large and epic monsters for up to 1k damage. (similar to chos feast and nunus consume). that would give him some team utility and give a team more of a reason to have a garen on their team. at the same time without touching his strength in lane. i feel this is a pretty good idea, especially since his ult cd is rather valuable for him, and even at max cdr still comparable much longer than feast. (not to mention consume)

his improved regeneration was also a nice buff, that was intended to make him stong vs poke comps. he can take a bunch of nidalee spears to the face, while his squishies hide behind him, and then falls back to heal up for a couple seconds. it also improves his ability to split push.
