His w buffs are just like ... idk what to say its almost like olaf R right now xD
the reason why i like the idea of buffing his w is, that its really a large hook for skill expression in garens kit.
using the w at the right time against the correct ability rewards you more for correctly using one of your very few outplay tools. so people who are good, and practised at the champion are probably going to get more out of it than your average bronze player who just presses the button without really thinking about how he uses the ability to its greatest effect.
the reason why i want to see a buff to his q animation speed is mostly, because i had actually allies die because i couldnt interrupt enemy abilities fast enough.
also, you have crap like enemies shielding, and using mobility tools during the q animation, because it gives them so much extra time to cram an extra spell in.
even flash + q plays to interrupt important enemy abilities become obscenely hard to pull off at times because of the slow animation.
like imagine you get on top of a
or a
because they messed up, and they cram their ults into the time your q animation takes to play.
the slow animation is acceptable during the lane phase, where garens opponents are locked in a situation where they have to deal with him on their own. but during skirmishes and teamfights around midgame, the long q animation is way too punishing on garen.
having the animation speed scale up with champion level solves that problem and is thematically consistent with his spin getting faster as he levels up aswell.
