Allow Garen to fear minions/monsters

LegenDariusGaren··9 votes·861 views

Why does Garen's Decisive Strike (Q) silence minions/monsters? Say you are trading with the enemy and you accidentally silence the minion instead of hitting the enemy. You can rage at this point, or we can change Q to a fear instead of a silence. So rather than raging, you will be like "At least I am taking less damage since that minion is not going to attack me." However, if you are saving Q to last hit a minion and you fail, the minion is going to be running away, which means you will lose the kill gold. Those are the positives and negatives in lane.

If Q feared monsters, then Garen can actually jungle. Even though he will still have absolute shit ganks, it will greatly benefit his jungle clearing. His Q is single target and does less than half of the minions total hp.

Malzahar, Cho'Gath, Blitzcrank will not need this because they can one shot the entire wave with their silences. Soraka just does not need it because those bananas already fear people.

I do not know if full crit Garen will work in the jungle. You need to snowball to go into that route.

(Side note) Or maybe they can change his ult to be like Darius's to where using it successfully fears all minions around you

Go to Options -> Hotkeys -> Additional Hotkeys -> Others -> Target Champions Only change this to a more easily accessible key (V for me). Your problem with accidentally hitting minions should be fixed by just holding this key when you click or use abilities.

As for jungle Garen.. His clears aren't as bad as one would think. However, his ganking ability is just so atrociously bad that it really shouldn't be considered. Outside of the ult and silence he doesn't really do anything that benefits ganking. You basically serve as a roaming execute.
