I'm confused. So Garen's strong or something?

His winrate hardly changed and I hear all this talk he is "OP". But from the patch notes i fail to see what exactly.

his win rate hardly changed?

he went from never being picked to being highly picked/banned over night, while having a 20% pick rate/20% ban rate his win rate did top out close to 54%

Here's what changed:

  • His passive scales better across the game, I believe.
  • His W applies a brief shield, in exchange for slightly lower resistance buffs.
  • His E now scales with attack speed. More attack speed means more spins, and there's no more hard cap on the number of spins.
  • His ult is now entirely True Damage.

What sites are you using? https://u.gg/lol/champions/garen/build/

On the right side of the top toolbar, you can change patches. Garen in 9.19: 50.86% WR - 5.2% pickrate. Garen in 9.20: 53.31% WR - 17.3% pickrate His pickrate more than trippled itself, and his winrate jumped 3%, that's a huge power spike.
