^ Yawn... It's not weird, it's d-u-m-b. Garen loses 20% movement speed when traveling through minions, and that's exactly why you can't catch up to people when you start E on him. Besides, the cooldown is longer at lvl 1 and you auto-push the wave for no reason.

Starting E on Riven is logical against this match-up because Garen starts Q and it has a silence, which stops Riven from chaining her own Q and makes him win the trade. Get it?

Do you play on EUW? If you're so curious I can show you exactly why this match-up is linear and easy as fuck to deal with.
