Garen changes will make Nasus lanes unwinnable.

E scales with attack speed.

Wither.

Q Vs Q lane.

Nasus was actually one of the few Garen lanes that was hard, but was decided by the better player. Can't see this lane going any way now other than to Nasus.

Considering Wither does nothing to Yasuo's, Kai'Sa's, Xin's, Jinx's, Kayle's, or Jhin's AS scalings, it's unlikely Wither will affect Garen's.

Rito favourtism yay.

Hope Riot can change it if that's true, though they probably won't since they almost never change anything based on PBE feedback. It's more like a public announcement environment than public beta environment it's named as.

No. If anything, the matchup will become more in Garen's favor with the e changes, and here's why. The e changes allow Garen to effectively take conqueror which is very useful agains Nasus as he builds really tanky, and the bonus true damage will really help in fighting him. The e changes also allow Garen to effectively use blade of the ruined king, another thing that will help him shred through Nasus.

The attack speed slow seems bad at first until you realize that Garen's q instantly removes the slow, meaning that if the Garen just holds onto his q until Nasus uses his wither (which you generally want to do in the Nasus matchup anyway), then Nasus basically doesn't even have a w.
