I do really love Garen, DEMACIA BABY! :D
Llevo jugando Garen Jg Mucho tiempo de esta manera y es recomendable porque si vas mal te concentras en farmear y en late es una locura. Lo recomiendo ya que me ayudo a subir de Elo y espero q les sirva.
Luego si tengo tiempo haré una guia de ello explicando bien las Runas y objetos. Saludos!!
I don't speak spanish, but I copied it into Google Translate.
Personally I don't play Garen jungle so for me it would be hard to make a good guide on it.
But you certainly made me want to test it out. So I will play it a few times in Normal games and see how it works!
Do you go the full Crit build, Galeforce, Berserkers, Mortal Reminder, Lord Dominiks, Infinity Edge?
I hope you can have good results with this build!!.
I tried to explain it in english, sorry if there´s any mistake
I understand you very well, no problem at all! :)
Very good guide. I'm glad you don't fall into the trap of tank mythics like so many other guides do.
About Exhaust, I actually should add it, I can see rare occasions where it can be useful, because it will most likely cause a Trynd off guard when he dives you level 6 and doesn't think about it! :)
And yeah, tank Garen is kindof troll in my eyes. I mean, if you want to play a tank it's just better to pick Dr Mundo or Chogath :)
Thanks again!
And yeah, I feel too many people just tilt and keep chain dying making game unplayable instead of just letting your team carry if you lost lane.
Thanks again! :)
As a main garen I love your guide. You have a very good explanation about freezing and slow push but I still can't manage to get it right. Would you be able to make a video where you explain what you do and why in different situations?
Also I'm struggling sometimes later on. For example I win lane allot with some good kills. But when teamfights start I cannot lead my team to the win. What I do now is focus more on split push. Witch seems to work good. Do you have more extended info for this?
I will take that with me and record some videos with different scenarios on why/how we should do things as: Freeze, Slowpush etc.
That is a really good idea!
It is very hard to give general tips since it depends so much on your teamcomp and enemy teamcomp. I am working on expanding the tips on midgame and lategame so it will come better explanations.
But a general rule of thumb while split pushing is to always watch map, and if your team has no pressure (no other lanes pushed, or in base), you can't push to far since enemy can just send all 5 to you.
Split opposite side of objective, so if you are bot and they send 3 on you, your team can baron.
Split push into rotations, you push into tier 2 tower sidelane, and then you rotate to mid and try to catch someone in enemy jungle or come in from behind and kill enemy backline.
Hope that helps a bit, hard to give general tips.
I know that I have commented on this guide once before, but I would like to yet again congratulate you on your guide. I see many massive improvements compared to last time, and I have to say this is one of the best guide I have seen on mobafire in a long time
Well done, my friend!
I have worked on improvements both to content but also on the presentation/layout of the guide, since a good layout is as important to keep interest!
This comment is an example of what keeps me going! :)
Extremely good job
Garen mains don't have to be ooga-booga-me-just-stat-check players with no thinking! ;)
I hope this guide can help players improve their macro thinking, because that really helps! :)
I really like the Spin/Attack Speed items or level chart that you added. It is rare to see such original additions to guide on this website. I am also a really big fan of mathematics, so I really took my time studying it.
Keep up the great work.
I am working alot on the guide right now. It is only about 2 days old so I haven't finished it yet!
I am also a big fan of mathematics and stats as you can tell, it is fun trying to find the most optimal builds and strategies. Items at levels for number of spins is something I feel alot of people don't think about.
Would appreciate an upvote :)
Have a nice day.
