My possible buffs:

Perseverance: Garen will now regenerate 0.6% (up from 0.5%) of his maximum health per second after not receiving damage for 5 (down from 7) seconds. The regenerative state will stop if Garen receives damage.

Reason: The sustain it provides is pathetic, not to mention that it's only ever active when you're hiding in a bush, in which case you're missing cs letting your opponent free farm. Mundo's passive is nearly as strong but it's always active, and Gragas' passive is equal to 4 ticks of Garen's passive every time he casts a spell. I chose 5 seconds because that's the time limit for Boots of Mobility's "out of combat" requirement.

Decisive Strike: Cooldown decreased to 10 / 9 / 8 / 7 / 6 from 12 / 11 / 10 / 9 / 8

Courage - Cooldown decreased to 20 / 18 / 16 / 14 / 12 from 30 / 27 / 24 / 21 / 18.

Reason: It's nearly unusable during laning due to its ridiculously long cooldown. It's also fairly useless until at least level 6 or so when you've farmed up the passive. Late game its cooldown is also too long to be used more than once per fight. Katarina's W is way better, and Gragas' W, though it doesn't give as much defense, gives mana and bonus AD, and it can be up permanently.

Judgment - Cooldown decreased to 11 / 10 / 9 / 8 / 7 from 13 / 12 / 11 / 10 / 9.
