Some Garen QOL changes (should have been done a while ago)

I have been playing Garen for well over 3 years now. I think Garen's a good champion but there's a couple of much needed Quality of Life changes that are way over due on him. Some additional effects on skins could be cool too. I just want to briefly mention some of the things that could have better purposes on him and maybe he could benefit out of it. Such as:
** -Crit**
QoL Change- Make Crit an effective part of his kit by allowing him to utilize ASPD (so he can utilize items like PD or Statik Shiv) or remove the crit mechanic and make him scale based off resistances.
I don't see much of a use with Crit in part of Garen's kit. Garen's Q and E both crit but severely lack synergy overall with his kit because of a lack of itemization options. The only crit item that is remotely viable on him is IE
but even then its not an optimal choice. Champions like Yasuo
can incorporate Crit so well in their kit that it makes sense building crit in the first place. I don't think its a bad idea having crit in Garen's kit but with no items in game to synergize with an AD caster that relies on Crit, its next to useless. What use does ASPD have on Garen (PD
, Statik Shivv
) and with Atma's removed, a garen with 20% crit chance with , I see no use of that when you can just build a Last Whisper as a last item as that is so much better than IE. Either there should be more options available to him that lets him utilize ASPD with his spin or his crit mechanics should be removed and perhaps he should gain extra AD based on his resistances as I feel that's mainly what his kit revolves around resistances.
Also please please please bring back Garen's crit animation of a sword flashing on his head. I feel it was a complete slap in the face to all Garen players who purchased the Steel Legion Garen skin. His crit animation was awesome and part of the reason I bought that skin.
- Decisive Strike
QoL change -_ Make his Q animation faster_
The Cast animation for this skill is way too slow in my opinion and perhaps it should be a bit faster. I can't name how many times the auto reset on the attack resets just because a minion under turret should have died but didn't because of the slow animation.
- Judgement
QoL Change - Allow him to consume the Q at the cost of the extra damage so he can silence for the whole duration of his Spin. _ I feel the utility of this skill is severely lacking as going through minions reduces his movement speed by 20%. I don't understand why this mechanic is still in his kit, it makes no sense. I also feel if Garen uses his Decisive Strike while he's spinning, it should consume Decisive strike and allow for his Judgement to be able to silence for the rest of the duration at the expense of losing the damage from his Q. I feel that would give Garen players a choice when to use Q for the extra burst and when to consume it to silence for the 3 second duration.
- Demacian Justice
QoL Change - Let his Ultimate be able to Crit (like how Statik Shiv works) or get an AD scaling despite keeping it magic damage. Also let his ultimate be casted if a champion goes into stealth or goes out of range.
With so many champions being given true damage now, his ultimate could use some much needed changes. Maybe the damage on his Ultimate could Crit just like on other skills and perhaps scale with IE despite being magic damage. I feel that would make his ultimate a lot better. I end up buying Sorc boots
on Garen usually just to make sure his ultimate actually kills anyone besides the ADC or the MID late game. Tops, Junglers and Supports usually have some sort of magic resist and it just makes it a pain to kill anyone besides the squishy if they have 1 magic resist item
. And Garen's ability to teamfight and delete someone revolves strongly around his ultimate. Once Garen's ultimate is down he lacks the ability to really shut anyone else down.
And please for the love of God, let his ultimate still get casted on a target that goes into stealth or flashes out of range. Its literally the most annoying thing on him.
Tl:DR, Garen is a good champion and has been in a better spot than ever, he could just use some QoL buffs to bring him up to par. Buffs on Crit mechanics, Silence Utiliy and Ultimate scaling off AD or being able to crit would put him up to par. PLEASE give him his crit animation back!
