Just a random idea, what if his passive was changed to this (not like he really needs the change though):

Upon damaging an enemy champion, Garen starts to regenerate 5% of his missing HP over 5s. This healing can stack up to 5 times, upon which subsequent damage dealt will refresh the duration.

Well, it -does- fit the name "Perseverance", where Garen is able to endure prolonged fights. Having up to 5% of your missing health regenerating per second on a tank like Garen could be a bit strong, but considering how he needs to stay in melee range anyway, such a change could strengthen his tankiness and potential grant him competitive level status.

Plus, it can be countered by certain items and Ignite anyway, so it won't necessarily be too powerful.
