For the next updates to your guide, could you add the matchups Mordekaiser and Quinn?

A legendary guide by a legendary garen player, amazing job!

btw rq.... Electrocute garen or conqueror garen?

Hello Great joob man

You probably should update the matchups part, some of them have removed items like Ninja's Tabis, etc.

Love the matchup section. Massive work put here and the thing is STILL getting upgrades. I appreciate that :0

Hi, (sorry 4 my bad english, don't speak it) after the rework/patch if a want to counter an AD / AP matchup should I use the items you put in ´old build´? The thing is, I know they are useful against them but as they don't appear in the ´new, reworked, only viable build´ I'm kind of confused.
Also, I know I can itemize against them in late game, but when it comes to early laning phase, should I replace Sheen for a ramble?/brumble? (however it is written xD) vest against a fiora for example? Or I just HAVE TO take the sheen and trinity, and phantom dancer/ dead mans first.
Thank you for reading, your guide is amazing!!!!
Saludos

hey, are you still updating the dedicated match up section? I've seen a lot of sett top lane and a few others that aren't listed. Other guides talk about them but they don't explain things like you do so I don't really trust it lol.

Sett and Morekaiser are the ones i really miss in the guide. Especially Morde is pain to play against. Maybe i dont see the obvious strat here, but would really appreciate an update.

What does the (old) tag mean are these not viable or do they still work? If they don't work why not just hide them and if they do why specify old?

Well, I keep them for the sake of nostalgia. The guide's about six years old and some parts of it I like to keep as mementos of old times. ^^

I feel like the advice for Teemo is not good enough to win lane. Twice in a row, I've gone against Teemo, used the advice, and lost. Whenever I try to trade against him, I always end up with him chasing after me and either killing me or forcing me to back, and if I don't run after trading and try to all in, he'll kill me. What runes am I supposed to take against him, or what else could I do?

I start normal D Shield and Pot. I take TP because i tend to make mistakes vs teeme especially of he is agressive with PTA for example. If he is a standard teemo i try to check if what lvl of good he is. a good teemo will never use his blind on you unless you try to farm with your Q or on canon minions.
Let him push, farm under tower make him vulnerable to ganks pre 6, call your jng on it he will love to smash teemos face pre 6.
Swift Boots can be good for chasing him down but you should build a second slow item to chase him down if the teemo player gives you the oportunity to do so.
If you farm under tower and he pressures you lure him into tower range. Bad teemos may take a shot or two. a low health themo is vulnerable to slow+flash+q+ult combos.
Try to bait his blind under tower.

I've read the guide, but I noticed that there are still mentions of the Villain mechanic when it no longer exists? I'd think they should be removed.

With the URF mode is being so popular, I'm wondering if replacing the Sorcery rune with Domination: Taste of blood, Ravenous Hunter would be better because the speed of the game is usually really fast and getting heal for every attacks would come in great help. Is that a good idea?

Thanks for the guide also, it is really good and very details.

With all due respect there's no reason to do some theory crafting revolving a game mode that only comes around in limited periods of time. With that being said, i'd recommend commiting to one set of rune builds either way.

Grasp > Bone Plating > Second Wind > Overgrowth + Scorch (Since Gathering the storm won't be too effecient in gamemodes that doesn't last more than 15 - 25 mins) + Celerity

Or

Electrocute > Cheapshot > Eyeball collection > Relentless Hunter + Celerity + Scorch

Alternatively in the second tree, you can use triumph + tenacity, since Garen doesn't really make too great use with coup de grace.
