Garen Rework: The Strongest Version Ever?
League of Legends has introduced a significant rework for Garen, a champion considered a gateway to the game due to his relatively low skill cap.
Despite being easier to play, Garen was previously weaker compared to other champions, particularly in high elo games. However, the latest update brings a massive power boost, promoting a less tanky but stronger build path.
Changes to Garen's Abilities
- Passive: Garen's passive healing no longer doubles at low HP, and the cooldown is now a flat 6 seconds. Healing scales with Garen's level, and non-epic monsters no longer interrupt his passive healing, making Jungle Garen more viable.
- W: Cooldown increases at later levels, with overall resistance reduced.
- E: Spin ticks of damage now scale with attack speed, without a set cap.
Garen's recent changes have dramatically increased his power.
Author's summary: Garen's rework brings a significant power boost.
