I play both GP and Garen. When I see a GP, I force him to farm under tower too. I build for crit and get Avarice blade -> I.E. (maybe brut/BC if I'm feeling safe). To harass, (since you can't q all your minions), I just wait for GP to try to auto a minion and I q and spin to win (if they're silly enough to chase). Q does a huge amount of damage at higher levels and if you're eating oranges, you can't use your Q. I suspect Darius would be able to fish you out and do a full wombo combo.

At level 6, I can usually get him low enough to tower dive or pull a gank mid or harass jungle or something. And because he's farming under tower, I'm usually about 20-40 cs above him. Assuming the jungler's not camping top of course.

However, if farming under tower's your thing, I think Nasus is better. I feel he has a stronger late. With someone like nasus, I can build pure defense and still a ton of damage. With GP, I have to skirmish, and if I get focused, I'm dead in a few moments. Then again each to one's own. Perhaps you're much better at GP then I am and understand him better. I DK, but he's dead in my list of champions that I pick until he gets the buff that he needs.
