Who Wins
- You lose early levels to Garen's Q silence and burst combo, but win decisively at 6 when R stealing his resistances makes him surprisingly squishy.
- Your sustained damage and healing become overwhelming once you survive his initial burst patterns.
How to Trade
- Let Garen engage with Q then immediately respond with Q-W-E to trap him in extended trades where your sustain wins.
- Use W healing zone positioning to force him to either fight in your advantage zone or disengage unfavorably.
Wave Control
- Freeze waves near your tower to force Garen into extended trades when he tries to break the freeze with E.
- Your superior sustain and all-in potential make frozen lanes heavily favor you in this matchup.
Mistakes to Avoid
- Don't waste E pillar on Garen when he has Q movement speed active, as he can still escape over it.
- Avoid short trades where he can Q-E and run away before you can establish your sustained damage advantage.
