Thanks mate. Garen dragged me all the way up to level 30 when I was a noob, and I have kept using him for awhile afterwards. I still pick him from time to time in memory of the good old time, and I am surprised to see that even experienced players still fear him.

I, contrary to Doublelift, do not claim to be the best Garen player of all time (mainly because chances are high that I would be wrong) but I enjoy sharing my experience about him, regarding what works and what doesn't. Here I gave some tips about laning against Nunu. To be honest, I have never faced him on a solo lane, but I have learned how to react against him in teamfights (and dominion, where you meet many AP Nunus). I do understand the frustration of being kited to death, and I know it may seem hard to win against these type of champs (I personally get destroyed by Caitlyns and Ezreals when I play as Garen), but I know every champ has it's weaknesses, and when you cannot use your own strenghs, you must abuse these weaknesses.

But let's face it : the best way to win your lane is to call your jungler and obliterate the other guy's face repeatedly. ;)
