Even though the site says it expired, I still found the build to be useful in PVP :-D

Gut

this does so much damage!!!

Right. Habits die hard. I basically use it on everything, unless I actually remember to change it up if I use something without mana.
Thanks for the +1 <3

AND PLEASE drop meditation for points in either Good Hands or perseverance. i hope you know that garen doesn't use mana...

still disagree with persevearance. with the passive healing debuff, say you have 4000 hp(never gonnna happen in a good game there anyway. your passive gives 17 health per second. the persevereance mastery would increase that by: 3.4. over a game, that's 4000 hp (assuming you have 4000 hp from start to finish and you never get hit) . or, you could spend another probably 2-3 minutes alive. although death timers are down, deaths are more frequent, and the imbalance continues.

also, the spin to win ratio is 1.4, not 1.2

good job on everthing else, and those are nitpicky things. i liked it.

+1 to counter that mean "dislike" downvote and because Garen is a really solid pick in Dominion.

Also, I'm female, but thanks for the credit! :)

Care to explain?



Edit: ^ I herp derped on mana regen...I know. However, my point below still counts about health regen. Any masteries that gives/relies on mana (regen) is now fixed.

Well, Dominion has a incredibly low re-spawn time, so the impact of it is not significant at all (2 seconds or so). Normally on 5v5 or 3v3 I'd go for Good Hands, or at least 2 in Good Hands, 1 in Perseverance. Plus, Perseverance actually really synchronizes well with with Garen's passive ( Perseverance)



Yeah I have, but I preferred Utility over it for Dominion. Dominion is really fast paced and allows you to get your defensive items really quickly, thus lowering the effectiveness of Defense masteries. Utility is noticeable the whole game.



I could agree with AD, but my views on CDR and Attack Speed are different.
Garen gets most of his damage from his abilities ( Decisive Strike, Judgment, Demacian Justice) and thus he really could use some CDR. And as seeing none of these skills benefit from Attack Speed at all, I find he doesn't really need it.

Nice guide. Have you tried defense masteries?

i prefer a 21/6/3 build on garen in dominion and maybe you shouldn't go for cdr. try some more ad and attackspeed instead. but nice guide i'll try it later ;-)

hi felix ... i saw your guide and i am curious why u pick mana regen instead of reducing deadtime ... @ first i disagree with the utillity build but i will try tomorrow!) have a good one
