Just as he's always been, Garen is strong versus newer/weaker players. He's tanky if you build full damage but not enough to justify doing it and his damage is actually quite low compared to other bruisers. I would also contest him "being too difficult to kite", considering he's an all melee champion with 1 ms boost that only clears slows once (the slows can be reapplied as soon as he uses it) and his W's tenacity boost only lasts for 0.75 seconds (meaning if he times it well he can almost nullify 1 CC, but not more than that.) If you're having trouble against Garen then my only advice is to get better at the game.
