Garen's Spin deals less damage than before until level 16

New Garen: Physical Damage Per Spin: 15 / 18.8 / 22.5 / 26.3 / 30 (+ 34.5 / 35.3 / 36 / 36.8 / 37.5% AD) Old Garen: Total Physical Damage: 60 / 135 / 210 / 285 / 360 (+ 210 / 240 / 270 / 300 / 330% AD)

E gets maxed at level 9, so let's see the numbers. Assume that Garen has 200 AD. At level 9, Garen has 7 spins. New Garen: (30+.375 x 200) x 7=(30+75) x 7=735 Old Garen: 360+3.3 x 200=360+660=1020

Let's look at level 15, assume 200 AD, with 9 spins. New Garen: (30+.375 x 200) x 9=105 x 9=945 Old Garen: Same as above=1020

Level 16, 200 AD, 10 spins. New Garen: 105 x 10=1050 Old Garen: 1020

Clearly, Garen does much less damage than before. Now if the target is isolated, the damage goes up by 33%. But how often do you get your target isolated? I hardly ever get my target isolated, and they are isolated for less than 1 second.

Assume Garen gets his target isolated, and they are the villain. Assume the target has 2000 hp. Then at level 16, New Garen: (105 x 10) x 1.33+0.1 x 2000=1396.5+200=1596.5

So the maximum potential damage that Garen can unleash is 1600 damage with his spin. But realistically, he doesn't isolate the target, and instead does 105 x 10+.1 x 2000= 1250 damage to the villain.

My point is that New Garen is much weaker than old Garen until level 16. In terms of numbers, [(30+37.5%AD) x X] is always less than 360+330%AD until X equals 10, where X is the number of spins.
