Who Wins
- You win levels 1-3 convincingly with Q poke and sustained damage from your passive.
- At level 6, you still have the advantage as your ultimate counters Garen's silence and damage reduction.
How to Trade
- You should poke with Q axes while maintaining distance, then all-in when Garen is low or when your axes hit.
- Never trade without landing your Q first, as it provides the slow and damage needed to stick to him.
Wave Control
- You want to maintain a slow push or freeze near your side to create long trades where your passive shines.
- Avoid hard shoving as Garen can easily clear waves and reset unfavorable trades.
Mistakes to Avoid
- You must never fight Garen when your axes are on cooldown or when you're at high health where your passive isn't active.
- Don't chase him into bushes where he can break vision and regenerate with his passive.
