Its certainly a lot better than before, both from Garen's view and overall balance. A nice tanky, sustained DPS who is viable throughout the game with mediocre/decent scaling vs an INSANE early game and completely falling off the face of the planet late game.

I think in this case Riot managed to give him a very nice rework and niche, make the Demacian Warrior fit into his own role perfectly as a tanky DPS bruiser, rather than a purely one trick pony and at worst, a handicap to his own team.
