League of Legends continues to evolve throughout ten seasons since 2009. With each season comes massive changes to champions, items, and the way you play the MOBA Game Champions. Some of the items have had compelling moments in the past few ye


Whether you’re a middle lane sorcerer or a speedy jungler, make sure to check on your middle lane. Simply knowing where they and checking in on them occasionally will not only help them maintain their lane, but it’ll probably help their self-esteem by visiting to show you care about t


Garen and his sister Lux were born into the noble Crownguard family, a family that proudly serves the kingdom of Demacia's military. When Garen was young, his uncle would tell him and Lux stories of protecting the kingdom from danger. Unfortunately, Garen one day receives news that his uncle was killed by a mage outside the kingdom. Upon hearing this, he swears a vow to never use magic or let it within the walls of Demacia. When Garen was old enough, he took his first step to honoring his vow by joining the military as a squire. Garen trained day and night, eventually building a reputation as a great warrior who embodied the very ideals that Demacia was founded upon. Garen was revered by his fellow soldiers so much so that they even nominated him to lead them. A great Champion for beginners , Garen doesn't use Mana or Sorcery, which is one less resource to manage. By having a basic skill set, a ton of passive tank, no mana to worry about, and an easy to grasp playstyle, Garen is a devastating force even in the hands of new players. Stay tuned and in this guide, you will learn his abilities, how to effectively use them, what items and stats are essential to Garen, and also how to do his famous trading patt


Unfortunately, the amount of diversity that’s possible leads to quite a bit of discourse, and there are few things that consistent top laners will agree on. If you find yourself disagreeing on the level of an aggravated Groundskeeper Willie , though, it’s recommended that you take a break and drink some water inst


Garen's ability, Courage, is both his second active and second passive ability. The passive ability is a permanent buff granted to Garen for slaying enemies. For every unit killed by Garen, his armor and magic resistance increase by 0.25 points until he reaches a total of 30 points. Once at 30 points (or stacks) Garen will gain an additional 10% increase to both his armor and magic resistance stats. Courage's active protects Garen by reducing all incoming damage by 30% for a few seconds and during the first 0.75 seconds of the ability being active, Garen is also granted a bonus shield and 60% Tenacity. Tenacity decreases the time Garen is affected by crowd control abilities based on the percentage of Tenacity, which can help prevent Garen from being locked down or kited. Use Courage's active ability during Judgement or immediately after if you expect to be hit hard by enem


However, as this meme from Reddit showcases using an edited comic from Owlturd , failure can make it much easier to just leave the lane to those who know it. You should never let one failure determine your entire future, but sometimes it’s more relaxing to just go back to your usual r


In some player's eyes, the current Black Cleaver is a shadow of what the original item once was. In early season 3, Black Cleaver has armor penetration as a base stat and shreds past 40 armor on full sta


Shen is directly mentioned in this meme due to his ultimate, which lets him teleport to foes across the map at an unusual speed. Top laners in general will still be frequent users of Teleport, a Summoner Spell that allows them to do the same thing. Often, this can be done to return to the lane quickly, as it’s a long walk for many slow champi


The most prominent is Doran’s Shield, a defensive starter item that’s been an outstanding part of early builds lately, even on certain ADC champions in the bottom lane. With some extra regeneration through abilities like Garen’s passive, it can make for an invincible champion at an unusually early point in the g


Garen's passive, Perseverance, allows Garen to regenerate a percentage of his maximum health every 5 seconds. However, if Garen is hit by an enemy or an enemy ability, he will have to wait 8 seconds for the ability to return. This ability is very useful because it allows Garen to frequently and confidently exchange hits with the enemy without having to waste time in base healing as a result. When Perseverance is active, Garen will have glowing green particles fly around him and a little icon will appear above the Champion i


Team Fortress 2 wasn't initially a free-to-play game but in 2011, it went free forever. This spiked up its community with players and strengthened it too. The game is a class-based casual/competitive shooter that explores the variability of nine different classes and gives them vastly different abilities and personalit
