even if you get counter going tanky as Garen you normally can do fine as long as you play smart and just out last the laneing phase.and if your able to play aggressive what you want to do is go in with your "Decisive Strike". then use your "Judgment". only use "Courage" when taking heavy damage to lighten up the hit i try to safe it to see how the fights going and if i even need it at all. to finish off your kill use your "Demacian Justice" when there below 25% to get the kill if you want to set a team mate up at about 33% health and it will set up a kill just about perfect
