Garen shouldn't have been buffed he was perfectly balanced and yet SOMEHOW riot found a way to break him I personally blame the LCS for this THE MOMENT HE WAS PLAYED IN THE LCS the devs started making changes for him if riot is balancing the champions only for LCS then why the fuck do we even exist at the start why the fuck are there 80 M players every year playing league do all of those players don't exist in riot's brain or is there just more money in the LCS than the player base Riot forgets that we the player base what made this game what it is not the fucking LCS people are quiting this game every day YET somehow riot doesn't care tbh either listen to ur players or just shut down the game and go bitch on the LCS players

He was Not balanced he was a freaking minion who couldn't even 1v1 Diana and Tanks. That's why they changed him from tank to a 1v1 monster

Garen has never ever won a professional game of leauge and something tells me he wont ever get to experience real pro play dominance (like aatrox has since his rework, or like jungle ekko) and not many more games will he be picked in irregardless to these changes...

Pro players understand that garen is very very simple, if he builds tank you can ignore him, if he builds damage you kite and kill him. Its a big reason hes not played now, and i dont think those rules will change unless he for some reason gains a dash or more health scaling into damage.

In all other teirs of play he is an issue. Because of how easy and simple the champ is to play makes him very forgiving to make small mistakes, and hes always been a strong pick simply for that. While i dont think garen is just a full blown pointless buff it has given him more options at the cost of making a strong simple kit, even stronger, and even more simple. in a game like league historically strong buffs to champs come with more skill required not less.

he's lost a lot of tankiness vs adcs and now i just lost a match because i couldn't defend the base..
