GAREN- The best learning champion
Garen is a champion perfect for toplane beginners. Alois said that his kit is so outdated that you can learn macro on him the best. I agree with that. He is one of the strongest toplaners and really easy to play off. In this guide I will describe: Build

Let's get started with the best Garen guide avaible on this platform.
Abilities
Bad and good matchups
Garen doesn't have much counters. I guess it's hard to fight into range and mobile champions OR if their kit just counters garen (for example Sett)
Overall it is still a great champion to blindpick. If enemy has picked first then just check on some kind of website for counters.
Runes
Important
If something doesn't counter garen you probably can win it really easily. If something counters garen you will be really miserable so if you know the enemy picked for example Vayne top then it's probably not the best to pick garen.
Garen
Garen 14.4+ cons and pros
Garen is a solid pick which is in S tier in 14.4 since he is simple and good for most ELO's. Has a few counterpicks but overall still really strong and solid champion.
Cons
If Counterpicked can't do anything 90% of the game (coinflip win or lose)
Low skill ceiling and enemy probably know how to play around garen
Pros
Garen is an easy champ which you can use to improve your macro skills ingame
A few counterpicks compared to other champions
Strong kit in early/mid and late game
Build diversity
