He doesn't bring a ton of utility to the team, and his ult is a bit of a kill-steal machine. That's why I think some people don't like having one on their team.

When I play against Garen, it might bug me that he's much easier to use than most solo tops and you can do quite well with him without too much effort or micro. Now that I've got some armor runes and I'm solidifying my top lane play, he's not much of a problem anymore.
Thanks to The_Nameless_Bard for the sig!

His E absolutely destroys supports/ranged carries. but as PSI said armour is his weakness.
this place is a dump

Garen is not a great champion, his only damage is the spin (and the ult ofc, but it has longer CD).

Man....

His Perseverance is a great sustain tool which keeps your forever in the lane

His Decisive Strike has high damage and a silence, which can make caster useless.

His Courage Is one of the best damage reduction spells for that cooldown. Combined with the resist he is very tought without high resists.

His Judgment is one of the best damage spells in the game, which also can crit. If you hit multiple people you will deal very high damage.

His Demacian Justice is also one of the best spells in the game, because he can completly knock out an enemy carry with it.

Garen is lategame a tanky assasin. He just jumps on the enemy caster( Flash helps at this), silence him and spin him to death, if he is still alive he uses ulti. And most of incoming damage is reduced by Courage.

And completly knocking out one champ combined with aoe dmg and that tankyness makes a good champ for me.


The only real thing, which people hate, is AD-AS Garen, which gets promoted by that useless top guide...

I hate that, too.
He is gonna kill you!!!

Because Garen sucks.

I think we all agree he is a solo top lane only champ..?

If anyone is interested, I will accept -all- takers who would like to prove me wrong. I haven't lost to a Garen in a solo lane since completing one of my rune page projects, and if someone can make Garen work, I would love to see it.

Garen excels at top lane in solo queue, you can beast most champs there.
Not viable outside of solo queue tho.
