I never thought about Trinity on him, but I imagine it'd hit pretty hard. Idk what I'd drop, though. Maybe Frozen Hammer.

Also interesting note, even though it may look like the AP from Trinity Force is wasted on him, the more AP you have the more your basic attacks deal to structures.

How does AP deal more damage to towers?

Actually I'm not, its been stated that 40% of your AP is calculated in the damage to turrets.
Unfortunately I've never really seen a discussion past a statement like that so I don't really know any other details.
If you look closely, towers have magic resistance too.

I now give you permission to go try this out in a practice game =D

You may be right, but my experiences suggest otherwise =/

I've never seen a red post on it to be honest.

I just tried out Trinity Force on garen, it worked out pretty well, of course i got extremely fed early on, but the build i went was as follows:

Ionian Boots of Lucidity
Sunfire Aegis
Youmuu's Ghostblade
Trinity Force starting with either Zeal or Phage depending if you want the slow and health, or crit chance and movement speed.

Went 13/3/2

It was interesting to have Garen's q proc slow and 150% bonus damage, definitely sped up his tower taking ability since his Q already has a 150% scaling.


So, lately I've been seeing a lot of Garen's with Trinity Force, did I catch on to something before everyone else did? This requires a number of games with Garen now.
.... Just need to find the time for it.

Yeh I've decided that Sunfire isn't really too fabulous on Garen. This is at least my opinion, of course. It does add some magic damage to Judgment, but it's miniscule really and the extra damage from, say, Black Claver or something can crit.

I could test Trinity vs Frozen Hammer, though.
