This is a short guide to introduce the new meta of Garen jungle - Trust me it works ridiculously well.

I am playing this in platinum and it works like a charm. I havn't seen any other Garen jungle guides around, so this is an attempt to share my experience.

You want to have tanky masteries as that is gonna be your late-game role. The tankiness synergizes well with his "Courage" when you get a few items.

- You want to start off early with "Spirit Stone" because it gives you a lot of sustain in jungle.
- Next you want to grab the "Boots of Mobility" to have more succesful ganks early - The extra movements speed + "Decisive Strike" is a ton of mobility.
- Then make your jungle item "Spirit of the Elder Lizard". The damage of your "Judgement" procs the dot on Elder Lizard and makes your AOE farming even more effecient.

- You take your "Judgement" first and max it to have sustained AOE jungle clearing and more faceroll dmg when ganking. No doubt the best spell on Garen.
- Next up you wanna take your "Decisive Strike" to get more single target dmg (for blue-golem, dragon and so on). You want to max this ability second because it extends the movement speed buff so ganks will become easier.
- You want to max your "Courage" last because you only need the tankiness late-game.

For farming you want to grab red buff first - then wraiths - and then blue.
Red -> Wraiths -> Blue -> Gank

- An effective way to gank as Garen jungle is either flashing while using your "Decisive Strike", or going with ghost and just hope they dont flash away. If you flash + "q" they will be silenced and unable to flash themselves.
