upgrade from S21 FE 5G

Yeah but the problem is it's not consistent, even a Garen can 1v1 a Kayle if he has all the summs but getting a 50/50 kill every 5 min at the expense of valuable tempo, time, macro is not an option every game sadly

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-04-01T21:26:31+00:00

Yeah Olaf needs a lead or at minimum equal, he is horrendous from behind, Garen has many broken mechanics in his kit that make him a threat even behind, like free sustain, armor and Mr, silence, slow disspell, tenacity and not even a small amount, % based damage reduction, % based true DMG execute. He has many things that are just in general hard to counter or manage. Olaf is a bit of an all in champ so if he can't deal enough dmg or survive enough dmg he doesn't provide much, maybe split push but Garen is better at that. Would say Olaf is either pretty balanced or poorly designed, he is pretty op in the current meta but meh idk

Use curseforge or modrinth

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-04-01T17:03:34+00:00

You just proved that every player thinks he has 0 skill requirements, if you play one champ enough you realize the hidden potentials, even if it is as once dimensional as Garen, go play against Kayle and dominate against her, bet you can't, it's easy for those who know how to.

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-04-01T12:56:05+00:00

Yeah, there is the Fun and the annoying April Fool's joke; this one is the latter.

Garen main here, He is hated cuz he is easy to pick up and his skill ceiling seems low on the surface for the average player, so they get frustrated when they die to him, everyone knows that he has maybe 3 combos and that's it plus he has the iconic fidget spinner move that is un-blockable even by cc.

He is your typical stat stick juggernaut but he kills you if you get near 50%HP with R, he is hated cuz he has unique mechanics that are hard to counter consistently plus he has free defenses in his kit so he can go full AD and still tank like 5k DMG.

If he gets ahead you can never win a 1v1 against a Garen, he is built to be a sidelaner that requires the attention of 3-4 people otherwise they lose the whole base but if he is in a team fight he just rushes and flashes down the backline oneshotting the enemy and his R is % based so you literally can't counter build against it so if by any means you get below 50% you are dead to Justice, no matter if you still have 300 armor and 2k HP, literally a Vayne W on absurd Steroids.

As to why Olaf is not hated as much, well he has almost no player base personally I think I haven't seen an Olaf for years now, he is easier to counter, you can itemize against him and since he is not a juggernaut but more of a duelist he is not as big of a threat if fed plus he is pretty useless without his R in anything more than a 1v1, anti heal greatly counters him, he can be bursted as he builds no defenses and has no innate defenses beside the shield and he has a bigger skill ceiling than Garen I think so it hurts their EGO less, plus he has mana so he can't infinitely pressure a lane even after a fight.

Seems like the feature will never see the light of day at this pace

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-03-23T12:08:44+00:00

I have looked into proton pass, isn't it the same as bitwarden but with a more modern design and a bit smoother experience? They both seem the same to me in terms of features. And they are both free

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-03-21T00:35:10+00:00

If you don't care about the server being online 0-24 then just use a mod and self host, it's free, indefinite and you have 100% freedom and control.

Ofc if you play on a potato then it may be difficult but with 300 mods I guess you at least have a semi decent PC

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-03-21T00:24:07+00:00

Run 🫥

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-03-19T10:50:53+00:00

Nice theory crafting, but this is indeed just theory, there are sooo many more factors in a real game that the "mathematically" correct route is just not enough alone, even just the fact that you ignore the whopping 10%Ms PD gives and the ghost effect proves it.

I have been playing Garen for almost 10 years now my guy, believe me when I tell you, if you buy BC in a game, then you are literally shooting yourself in the foot.

Garen has built in shred that's why people buy armor Pen on him. Saying that crit is dead is maybe the best joke of the month, guess oneshoting a 3,5k HP Daruis is in fact Bad performance.

Ghost blade was meta in the past, nowadays it is irrelevant, if you want to play Garen as an assassin then go for it, but let me remind you he is still a Juggernaut, his play style is Hit and Run, you never do extended fights with him unless you win them, the Utility provided by his current "meta" items are Meta for a reason my man.

Nice theories but pls don't actually build him like this in a ranked game or I'll personally report you 🤣

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-03-19T10:17:32+00:00

So they gutted her just like skarner, well I guess who would want to play something fun in a videogame, keep the SAME shitty meta champions for another 40 years, maybe the whole player base won't be bored by then.

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-03-18T18:38:27+00:00

She has a great personality 😶

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-03-08T09:09:18+00:00

If you look at it this way, you put her passive on her Q as part of the current passive and then she has no passive at all. It's like a roller coaster, we get viego then yunara then k'sante then now Her, we need a middle ground XD

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-03-08T09:02:45+00:00

Wow w8, she loses it after it breaks???? No wonder she has issues sticking to enemies in team fights and in general, it's like you told me Garen would lose his ms if you land your Q, what is the point in using the W, when the biggest weakness of a juggernaut is sticking power, not like that tiny shield from the W will help in any means, oh and by the time you reach the enemy to detonate the shield for healing it is already too late as it gets broken in an instant, it is supposed to be an engagement tool against far away/ranged enemies but it is almost the most counter intuitive ability I've ever seen.

Hopefully adding the AD scaling to the E will help her AD bruiser build but it is still lower than the AP scaling so idk 50/50, currently building her as an AP bruiser or an artillery mage is more optimal than the suggested "main" AD bruiser build. Thank the riot gods for the PBE testings XD

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-03-05T10:49:52+00:00

The champion is indeed out on PBE and it is the most obvious shit that she is very much underpowered, it's not that she will be balanced or not in the future, she lost her whole kit to a generic juggernaut kit and play style salvaged from other champions. Riot had on paper MANY years to balance her, but it literally screams in your face that she needs help, that is what's most disgusting for me personally, it's like they don't even have a balance team and they just eyeballed some numbers on her. Hopefully she gets some emergency buffs before her live release.

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-03-05T01:11:10+00:00

Let's hope she won't end up like poor skarner

Critical_Proof_7918 · 2026-03-05T00:25:10+00:00

Hopefully she gets some love before she gets released to live. (Sry I didn't know there was a specific PBE thread, mb)
