So I'm a low ELO Akali player and I seem to struggle playing against Garen. I always ban Annie as she is considered God Tier in low ELO and she's easy. Help beating Garen?

You dont.Akali is Assassin, Garen is Juggernaut. Assassin need to get close and personal. Garen punches people that get into his face.

You would only want to in Garen's face if you were already very ahead in levels and items. Other than that, you would normally want to maintain a gap between you and him (or any tank/bruiser) unless he was so low in health that you were SURE you could secure a kill.

If Garen manages to close that gap before you can burst him back to the respawn, your best bet is to use R to dash to a minion, jungle monster, etc.
