To anyone crying about Garen being OP now.....

Remember...

He has less resistances. IE takes more damage.

You need to relearn your trading patterns you can't just AA him when he's standing next to you anymore (This means you teemo especially). This takes tiiiiime to become instinctive.........time....

You can still stand behind minions, AA and kite him.

Current win %s are irrelevant. Low sample inexperienced groups of data is not indicative of OP.

Remember the time YOU, THE BOARDS, called Yummi useless and Pantheon RW weak upon release? Got that one right did you? Pros seem to wholeheartedly disagree....

And remember conqueror is getting removed preseason so any 'gains' will be short lived.

P.S Garrenmains Reddit must be the only LOL Reddit undertaking self flagellation. For years you've been the least vocal most passive Reddit and now Garen gets a minor buff and you're spouting OP because you're winning trades with inexperienced opponents going ham and all in on you, feeding you? Pffff...you guys take a leaf from Rivenmains for once. Be vocal and stand up for your champ. It's shameful.

Dude he lost 10 armor and MR at max stacks on his W. That's not going to affect him at a fundamental level, especially not when trading, something generally only happening in lane, is going on.

Sure, there has to be some re-learning, but he's not so much squishier in lane than before.

Now that is interesting. First time I heard of that happening. Is this on the PBE?

Yeah champions that you 'cant just AA' , 'cant just let farm' or 'cant just whatever' are not broken at all.

Can he dive you dive Trynd or Irelia for example?

Can he leap across the lane like Jax or Camille and 100-0 you?

What possible gains can he get if youre last hitting waves under your tower?

Yeah....so OP...

Remember, his win rate is almost 54% in high elo, which is exactly what EVERYONE said he wasn't suppose to be for due to his kit being impossible to balance. Riot broke him plain and simple.

Remember when Morde came out with 56% winrate and people said it's just because people need to learn how to play against him? Remember when he was nerfed 3 times in a row after that and befor every nerf THE BOARDS said "that's it! he's gutted!"? THE BOARDS are very biased.

Source please, you're the 2nd person who claims this, If it's being removed, that depends on what's replacing it in regards to Garen.

The “he’s new, just learn stuff” wasn’t an excuse for ezreal’s rework. So no. Fuck that. Gut this garbage fire of a champion.
