He is great for 1v1, especially late game. He can block your Q so try to engage with your E early on. He is a scaling beast with life steal. Try to end as quickly as possible. Get a mortal reminder if he build a hella lot of life steal.
Teemo
This creature is annoying and can poke you down early on. He denies you cs, and if fed, can actually be a threat late game. Since they don't usually start Q, hiding in a brush either tribush or down the river if the jungle needs a leash, or in the bush near the edge of the map, is very useful to get some trading in. Don't ban this creature. All teemo players want you to tilt, so don't. Farm at tower and murder him later.
Kayle
Personally, I hate kayle. They out scale you by AUs. It is scary. They have high poke at lvl 3. At lvl 6, they gain ranged auto attacks, poking you in lane. At lvl 11, they have huge cone auto attacks. Their scaling is a nightmare to deal with. I usually ban morde, kayle, or talm kench most of the time. To deal with them, try to get your jg to gank before kayle is lvl 6.
Ornn
Ornn is annoying to deal with as Garen. He doesn't have to back a lot. He can dive you easily. He has great cc. He can get free extra stats. He is a tank. And he has the best facial hair. Tanks aren't a good matchup in my opinion. Rush black cleaver to get some armor pen. Split push when you can to make them not teamfight.
Ashe
Ashe can kite you easily and can kill you from cc and damage if fed.
Annie
The stun and tibbers has high burst. Before PD, you are in danger from her, especially if she is roaming to 1v3 you.
Caitlyn
Same as ashe, but she can kite easily with a great execute from afar.
Blitzcrank
Blitz can grab you into the enemies, making you free gold.
Mordekaiser
If he gets ahead, don't fight him. He can tank a lot of hits, heal a lot, and deal tons of damage. If he is ahead, try to fight him 1v3 if he used his ult lately. Be quick because it has a pretty short cooldown.
Cho'Gath
Not that dangerous. The knock up and silence is bad in teamfights and in 1v1. Build some MR and merc treads if you can. Once he has warmogs, laning is hard. Try to destroy tower as fast as you can to stop laning.
Renekton
High sustain and high damage. If they are good at rene, it's hard to fight him because of his great lvl3. Try to fight before he gets lvl 3.
Tahm Kench
Same thing as ornn. Very tanky and has poke. Maybe take corrupting if you are afraid of getting too much poke damage, but passive and doran's has sustain for you.
Dr. Mundo
Mundo isn't as popular, but if you encounter him, he outscales by far. His high tank and damage makes him so strong. Getting kills early on denies his power. Let's hope his 2021 rework won't make him a bigger problem.
Yuumi
Yuumi is great for garen, healing him and speeding him up. It is hard to play with a yuumi if you do not know the limits to her strengths. Try not to 1v4 or 1v5 like I have done plenty of times, thinking I was unkillable.
Zac
His knock ups and tankiness makes him a great jungler for garen. While he soaks up the damage, you can go in and beyblade everyone.
Thresh
Lanterns can save you in a pinch with his lantern. He has a hook to get someone for you to obliterate. His ult can slow targets, giving you more chances to kill fast bois.
Blitzcrank
Blitz is similar to thresh, but his grab is better.
Jarvan IV
His attack speed buff is great for you. With PD, you with have so much damage.
Zyra
All the cc make zyra great for a team in general, but for garen it gives opportunity to get more picks.
Amumu
Great cc for ganks and teamfights. As long as they hit their stun when ganking, it is a kill confirmed.
Annie
This will be the last synergy for now, but Annie has a great AOE stun with her W or tibbers. Also, tibbers grants some protection if you are behind.
