Who Wins
- You lose early levels 1-3 due to Garen's Q silence preventing your ability to trade back with spells.
- Once you hit level 6, you become the stronger champion due to your ultimate's stat steal and isolation potential in the death realm.
How to Trade
- You should focus on short Q poke trades and never commit to extended fights until your passive is fully stacked.
- Once passive is active, you can run him down with W shield and sustained magic damage over time.
Wave Control
- You want to give up some early CS to avoid Garen's strong early game, then look to slow push waves once you have level 6 and items.
- This creates opportunities to all-in him with your ultimate when the wave crashes into his tower.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You cannot afford to take extended trades without your passive stacked, as Garen's early game damage will chunk you too heavily.
- Your second critical error is using your ultimate when you're significantly behind in items, as the stat steal won't be enough to overcome the deficit.
