^ No, his scaling is simply awful. With full AD items that don't have attack speed, he'll be barely above other physical damage bruisers while using Decisive Strike and Judgement. With everyone logically getting a Chain Vest and Negatron Cloak scaling with extra health and armor naturally per level, that won't kill anyone. After Decisive Strike and Judgement are cooling, everyone else will overtake his damage quickly.

And with full AD items like that, Garen will be so squishy that he won't survive to use his full duration of Judgement anyway. So you can either build some defensive items to survive to do insufficient damage or do part of less-insufficient-but-still-not-good damage.
