Riot is currently looking into this, and comparing him to other tanky DPS champs. Depending how he is, they will either bring him in line with the rest, or bring the rest in line with him.

No. Just no. His AD ratios are where they are because he is an early game champion. Going into late game isn't supposed to happen on Garen, which is why his early damage is absolutely insane. IMO the only way, right now anyways, to bring Garen into being a late game champion is to tank with him, but even that isn't an amazing way to play him.
EDIT: If Riot is looking into this, I hope they put others where he is. It'd be interesting to see how it affects the metagame.

Teamwork is essential. It gives the enemy someone else to shoot at.
I think his early through late game is amazing AD or tanky.

AD Garen with Sunfire, Frozen Hammer and Atma's scales incredibly well into late game.
He's a terrible tank.
Build AD/HP with Atma's, though, and you'll eat their teams.






Number one Garen build, IMO.

NO! This will not turn into another "how to build Garen" thread! Bad Jvstm! >:[

Last 'Garen is free' week was horrible. Every time I faced a Garen, he owned me. Why? Because I think there is a glitch on him of some sort. Using Kennen almost all those games against him, I could not stun him close range...at all. At a distance was no problem. But if he was close, I would just stack 3 marks (no stun) and then stack 3 more marks (still no stun). It was the same thing with Taric. If he was far away, I successfully stunned him. If he was right beside me, no stun. No Cleanse or Quicksilver was ever involved. He was just completely immune to all stuns at close range. Yes, QQ
Anyways, I think Garen has sufficient damage all throughout the game. I believe he is what one would call a bruiser, taking damage well while still being able to put it out.
