Garen late-game is obnoxious in normals if you don't have Vayne on your team

Even if you have a BoRK and LW, a tanky Garen virtually unkillable, even compared to real tanks like Leona, Alistar, etc. And to top that all off, he gets good damage because of him being a bruiser from just a Black Cleaver.

Granted, Garen is terrible at high-tier play because he's too easy to counterpick, but in normals he is rather... oppressive. You can't ignore him when he charges at your ADC, and it takes 5 people MINIMUM to take him down in a timely manner.

The only Champion who has no issue with Garen is Vayne, but if you're in blind pick and don't have Vayne vs. Garen, you're kinda boned.

Anybody else hate facing Garen late-game?

Garen eats 90% of CC that isnt a slow. Gets kited to death. Doesnt have sticking potential, and meh damage. He needs buffs/rework the old hide in a bush to win strategy doesnt work anymore.

So a champ with tank items isn't supposed to be hard to kill? ADCs have been dominating too damn long anyways...

The issue is that even when 5-man focused, Garen takes a MINIMUM 10 seconds to kill without Vayne or Trundle. Too long.

When he builds tank, he's tankier than the REAL tanks. That's just wrong.
