Garen
GameplayGaren is a champion in League of Legends.[1]
Abilities
- Perseverance does not go on nor refresh its cooldown from damage which was fully prevented by a shield or invulnerability.
- The enhanced attack will apply other on-hit effects and can critically strike as normal (the bonus damage does not).
- The bonus damage will also apply life steal.
- The bonus damage is applied to structures.
- The bonus damage will also apply
- Decisive Strike locks Garen out of using basic attacks for a short period of time. This is shortened with attack speed.
- The enhanced attack will still complete and hit the target even if they become untargetable during the attack's windup.
- Decisive Strike will not prevent the reapplication of slows (e.g. the persistent slow from Pillar of Ice will be immediately reapplied after removal if Garen is still within its area of effect).
- Spell shield will only negate the silence.
- Decisive Strike's lunge can pass very thin terrain and will otherwise not be able to. In any case, Garen will still hit his target.
- Courage's bonus resistances are only gained when it is ranked up at least once, but Courage's passive is retroactive for units killed before it was learned.
- Courage's bonus resistances can be obtained by any of Garen's damage sources (basic attacks, abilities, summoner spells, runes, item actives).
- This does not include last hits transferred to Garen artificially, through effects such as Spoils of War.
- This does not include last hits transferred to Garen artificially, through effects such as
- The kills on these enemy unit types count towards Courage's bonus resistances:
- Champions (Only kills, Assists don't grant the bonus resistances)
- All minions and monsters
- Champion summoned units (e.g. Noxious Trap, Powder Keg, Dark Procession)
- All pets and clones.
- The bonus is equal for all these units; Large units do not grant a larger bonus.
- The kills on these enemy unit types do not count towards Courage's bonus resistances:
- Courage will only grant bonus resistances from units killed by Garen himself. Eye of the Herald and Spoils of War of allies do not count.
- The Tenacity increase stacks additively with the tenacity reduction from Brittle, but multiplicatively with other sources.
- Howling Abyss differences edit
- Bonus resistances on-kill changed to 0.5. Number of enemy kills needed to reach the maximum amount changed to 60.
- The initial casts count as an ability activation for the purposes of on-cast effects such as Spellblade and stacking Force Pulse.
- Deactivating the ability manually does not.
- Each spin triggers a stack of Conqueror.
- For the purpose of moving closer to an enemy when right clicking them, Judgment also reduces Garen's attack range 「 to 100 」「 by 75 」 for the duration.
- Judgment cancels Garen's last movement command upon ending.
- Each spin deals damage simultaneously to all enemies within its range when the spin is completed.
- The spin animation is capped at once per 0.2 seconds, but the amount of ticks will keep on scaling.
- The armor reduction stacks multiplicatively with other percentage armor penetration effects.

- Ultra Rapid Fire differences edit
- Can not stack spin casts.
- The target will die if they're at least under 20 / 23.08 / 25.93% maximum health + 120 / 230.77 / 333.33 flat health on top of that. This does not count effects that mitigate true damage, such as shields.
- If the target becomes untargetable, dies, or is too far away or no longer in sight during the cast time, this ability will cancel but does not go on cooldown nor pay its cost (if applicable).
Champion skins

A proud and noble warrior, Garen fights as one of the Dauntless Vanguard. He is popular among his fellows, and respected well enough by his enemies—not least as a scion of the prestigious Crownguard family, entrusted with defending Demacia and its ideals. Clad in magic-resistant armor and bearing a mighty broadsword, Garen stands ready to confront mages and sorcerers on the field of battle, in a veritable whirlwind of righteous steel.
