That wasn't what he said at all. You saw him mention Garen in his examples and drew entirely the wrong conclusions.

What Xypherous was actually saying was that at this point in time, CD based champions are going to have their cooldowns increased, because they just get to lolspam their abilities all day every day, versus mana based champs and even, to an extent, energy based champs, who have to manage their resources as well as their cooldowns. Doing so lightens the perma-harass pressure CD only champs put onto those who have mana/energy to watch, and give them an easier time in lane.
