Log, my response and argument for choosing perseverance are now posted under masteries in the guide. Please, take time to read through it and let me know what you think.

Hello my friend! Welcome to my guide. Perseverance fully activates at 10% health. It gradually declines. The math you speak of is rather simple. In fact, even an idiot could do it. But, your powers of observation fail you. Yes, it's crazy I know. A guide that tries to support Garen as much as possible in his weakest lane phase. Now, if you have more to say, please, say it in a more delightful manner, perhaps you could impress me if you behave courteously.

lol this guy

Take half a second and do a little bit of math, maybe you'll understand why Perseverance is so ****.

Perseverance adds up with his passive and Doran's shield. It is completely effective for sustain early game.

I'd recommend some Magic resist glyphs, if you face an AP Top lane, your going to have a bad time. 1.5% increased movement speed is not very noticeable, nor worth taking.

Your skill sequence is rather poor, nothing is maxed out by level 9. Don't put another point into Decisive Strike until level 8.

The perseverance mastery is not good for Garen, it only kicks in when you are low on health. Thanks to you passive, this mastery will rarely get any use. Why did you put points into Tough Skin and Bladed Armor ? They are jungle masteries, not top lane. Bladed Armor has absolutely no effect whatsoever on minions, as does Tough Skin .

There is also no BBCoding in this guide. Read the "guide to making a guide" By JhoiJhoi to make your guide more visually appealing. A good guide takes a while to create, and won't be done without coding.


Perseverance adds up with his passive and Doran's shield. It is completely effective for sustain early game. Bladed Armor does affect minions. I had it selected in the guide to assist in pushing the lane while harassing, however, Tough Skin does not affect minions any longer, so I have changed the build to reflect that revelation.

Correct full damage build for Garen is TBC -> Atma's -> IE. Not that ravenous hydra ********.


We choose RH for pushing the lanes and taking towers, not just for damage.

LW never unless enemy team has Malphite, Taric and Rammus on the same team. Garen doesn't exactly deal tons o'damage in the first place, and then his big KSing execute is magic.


Yup I know, just forgot because I don't play him that often, and when I do, I jungle him.

I'd imagine the move speed to be great (better than zephyr) but TBC would be better in bruiser-on-bruiser clashes since Garen can proc the armor shred.


Probably true, I'm thinking that I'd also build LW but Garen mostly doesn't so Cleaver might be better after all.
