Is garen a problem?

Admittedly this thought did spawn frm getting wrecked by a garen http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/1665672584/217735621?tab=overview so you garen mains, dont feel attacked but proud

I dont really know how to kill this guy, in fact no one knew how he has a Mundo ult for a passive and there was no way to beat him in lane and its really somthing when vayne's bork didnt do much either

is Garen's absurd mobility tankiness and regen abit of a problem?

To stop his passive just poke him at least every 8 seconds.

His Q only gives him move speed for a sec so just run backwards.

His spin pushed the wave so call for jungler.

His ult is weak other then when you are below like 40% hp so just run before you are that low.

Poke him afar, he is weak to harass.

Im was a Garen main and he is too easy to counter which is why i no longer main him lol.

Try this Garen build, shouldn't have any problem getting shut down. Use the alternative replacement rune page for S5, it is very strong, more so than the original. IE, armor, then cleaver. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXwzA9bqBac

I am very surprised you lost to him as a Teemo. With the amount of harass you can get on a Garen, he shouldnt have barely been able to farm. Yea he can run fast, but so can you, and youre ranged.

uuh yeah, he did struggle to farm, i recall having a 50+ cs lead over him buut uuh idk how he reached me tbh, some how did he simply simply heals up my harrass go cs get poked by me heals up my harrass repeat his healing takes place under turret and i dont wanna go there

His passive can be defeated by tossing any form of harass at him. He's actually really LACKING in mobility, because dashes are superior to move speed, and dashes are becoming more prevalent in the game. He isn't a problem. He's in an okay place at best. He isn't great. He isn't bad. He's mostly just really okay.

That build is absurd, I'd assume it was a fluke.

I actually think Garen needs to be buffed more.

I still see Rivens in games and that's a problem.

Rivens a risky pick she either gets wrecked trying to snowball or she gets 1 kill and snowballs, easily 100-0 ulted nasus under a goddam turret.... pretty rewarding if she does it right tho
