Tips Against Garen in Top Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

KomariLoL says “This matchup isn't that hard if you can poke him with your Q and space him with your E repeatedly. Spacing is the key to winning this matchup. His Q on its own isn't that much of a problem because it doesn't do much damage and is only used for it's CC. His E on its own is also not that much of a problem because even though it's his main source of damage, if you have something to dash away to, he can't catch up to you. The problem is when he puts these 2 abilities together, and you can't escape his E damage because he silenced you beforehand. A mechanic you can use to counter this is E'ing away when you see him mid Q animation. His Q will go through and do the damage, but your E is also buffered so you still dash and he can't E you. Then you can get a good trade while his abilities are down. Don't ever let him land his Q and full E duration on you. His W reduces damage taken by 30%, so if you are trading and he activates it, get out.”

SStoqnS14 says “Go phase rush. if he has Conqueror you're cooked. Try to farm and not die TOO MUCH ( you will) good if you don't feed a lot and scale. Can go Conqueror but not reccomended”

Arxhgos says “My personal counter for Jax if you stun him while he presses w your stun goes away in less than half a second,he runs away he can bait your abilities and can destroy you with his e Which reduces armor,his r true dmg And his q makes you not able to do half your abilities,in this matchup I rely on roaming and farming,if he q's(his sword gets yellower and he yells charge) you e”

Rage Shadey says “The main issue is if garen has flash. Q, flash, spin, ult. Q disables our stun. Flashing instantly puts us in to his Q range as he runs so we know it's coming. Spinning hurts and we are slowed. Ult just the icing on the finisher dealing a ton of true damage to our squishy setup. Tossing in ignite to burn what's left to ashes. Though it's a later setup so dominating him early and putting him in his place will make it far easier to sustain the full combo and still easily kill him.”

GX Kayn says “A good garen is hard to kill for renekton. It s all a matter of spacing, you must him as much as you can, while avoiding to tank a full e. At level 6 he has kill potential if you get under half health. Be very careful for his silence! It may stop you from using r last second, or spacing out with e! And his w straight up counters yours.”

DrGumpington says “Don't let him sustain off his passive and get ur q1 out before his silence. Also try not trading into his shield if possible.”
Deddy says “Garen countera Jax, è stato perfino pickato in competitivo per counterare Jax. Abbiamo poco tempo per ammazzarlo, i primi 5 livelli, poi se ha la R up [[Demacian Justice]] probabilmente vincerà ogni all in. Per i primi 5 livelli lo battiamo senza problemi, ma anche se vinciamo i trade lui ha comunque sustain (basso i primi livelli) quindi cerchiamo di giocarceli bene. Se gli camminiamo semplicemente addosso e lui attiva la E [[Judgment]] vince lui, considerate che la sua E fa più danni al nemico più vicino, e dopo 6 spin ci toglie anche armor (non tutti lo sanno, leggetevi la sua abilità) dobbiamo giocare in e out dalla sua E, parare sempre la sua Q [[Decisive Strike]] con la nostra E, e giocare attorno al CD della sua W [[Courage]]. Anche con tutto questo, è difficile punirlo, e oltre i due items ci ammazzerà 100-0. Potete anche considerare di bannarlo, essendo un pick molto comune e molto facile da eseguire. C'è da dire, che comunque essendo un champion debole early game e con poca iniziativa, possiamo comunque manipolare le wave per aiutare a Grubs o influenzare i junglers. Se lui gioca ignite, abusate il vostro teleport, e ricordatevi quando potete di dargli anche solo una W per interrompere la passiva. [[Sterak's Gage]] e' buono nel midgame contro di lui se puntiamo a fightarlo. Rune ed Item a vostra scelta, in base a quanto conoscete il matchup, nel dubbio, Grasp e Dblade.”
EnriqueR says “Take Conq. If you parry his Q you win. Do not all in him if has his W. Bait it out then he is a melee minion. Post 6 keep in mind you can parry his ult, but most garens will Q then ult so parry his Q is mainly just better.”

Pawnthatpawns says “Can't lose this lane unless you are bad. Just don't q into him when he has e. Once you build redemption, you just stat check him and outscale completely from that point. LDR and Void will destroy him.”

brunaisse99 says “His W gives him tenacity, and his passive gives him massive sustain, other than that is a safe lane. Use your E on his Q so you don't get silenced.”
