Nope :o But not too surprising IMO as it's a word that means a star female vocalist (though its literal t/l is song princess).

Garen was OP last patch, for some ridiculous reason they decided to buff him.

He isn't just a strong solo top, he completly shuts down other popular solo tops. Champs like Irelia go from great top to horrible feeders when faced with a Garen.

His level 1 Q deals like 180 damage or something. Considering it resets your auto-atack you are dishing out a hit + a Q, it leaves squishy champs at half hp. Half a second later you flash kill them at level 2 with a Q-E ignite.


For the life of me i can't figure out why it is that Garen has not yet exploded into popularity. Maybe it's because some people still build him tank and they don't notice how OP he is when build damage.


A nerf seems unavoidable for him and truth be told, i think it would have been justified even before he got his buffs.


What? Garen isn't op, lol. He can get very easily shut down in lane by ANY ranged champion and then is useless. We picked teemo vs him in go4lol and he just did nothing that useful all game although he killed teemo once in a mini teamfight.

Any champion is OP if they win there lane. He is strong lane and decently strong in teamfights but to call him OP is retarded considering all the other OP champions like gangplank, orianna or lee sin.
Well I guess leesin/brand are both champions that are "OP if you land skillshots".

Might be at least useful to consider garen as a reasonable counter to udyr in top... Once udyr runs up to the creeps to turtle and gain a trillion health back, q+spintowin and he's not only denied the healing, he's lower than he was before.

Being a counter to OP solo tops doesn't make him inherently OP. Anyone can snowball if they are fed. Calling swain OP because he counters vlad in lane when vlad was OP is faulty logic. He just counters a lot of bruisers in lane who beat ranged but garen loses to almost any ranged champion so its just a decent counter lane.#

Garen has zero poking or engaging abilites, once he goes if he can't easily leave so having a strong lane against melees and a strong burst is necessary to make him even close to viable.
And yes, "tank" garen is bad.

There's a really strange trend when I play Garen depending on how good my team is.

Good team: 6-0 early -> 15-2 or so at the end

Useless team: 6-0 early 6-8 at the end

Really strange. If you are winning, you win hard. If you are losing, you die every single fight (or stay out of it completely). That's what happens for most melee DPS. That's also what makes them so hard to balance.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Garen sucks with a bad team because he relies on bursting one guy down fast and committing to it so if they are too fed you're totally useless as you have no way of forcing bad fights the way AP carries can with pokes/walls/orianna ults/annie ults/anivia walls etc.

SUP DOTA2?

In all seriousness though, this is great news. I hope this makes people stick to LoL, I really don't wanna play DotA2 for some odd reason I don't even know.
currently rooting for myself.

It's like a dick-swinging contest in here. When are HoN going to do their own huge prize poo- oh wait, they already did, and it was $5000. Nice going.
