The garen changes.

HongChongDong··1 votes·560 views

I'm really surprised that I've yet to see anyone complain about the new % armor shred on garens E. I mean if it goes live in its current state his E will shred 35% of the targets armor at max rank. With BC, this jumps to a grand total of 65% of the targets armor. This means garen becomes a full on anti-tank tank.

55%. it's multiplicative not additive.

also gives him a nice niche of being the blender he was meant to be.

at this point though I think cleaver's armor shred should turn into % armor ignore, and only for the person applying the stacks. that way Garen can be more unique in that his armor shred will be for everyone.

I wouldn't mind that change.

There are over a dozen other bruisers that have built-in Shred or ArPen, and many of them build Cleaver. Many of these shreds are AoE as well.

Additionally, most of these shred effects are applied fully up-front, whereas Garen's shred takes a while to stack.
