Hi, one of the playtesters working on Garen (I'm not the designer) but I'll give you the best context I can:

Q1: Why did Rioter increased the number of spins to shred armor?

Right now it's been put back to 4, if I had to guess the original intent it's because Garen spins much more frequently now, so it would've been to keep the "time until shred" roughly the same instead of faster.

Q2: Does Garen keeps the ult indicator or no?

No, because ult has the same effect on everyone on the enemy team now.

Q3: Why does it more CS or units killed to fully stack up armor and MR for W passive?

He's getting quite a bit of power overall (especially his passive), so finding somewhere to nerf him. Invisible stats are a good spot for this.

Q4: What runes Rioter wants Garen to use besides Grasp of Undying?

Conqueror is probably ...

The problem with that is, 90% of the time you got people who refuse to surrender. And oftentimes the enemy refuses to finish the game too.

Instead of thinking you made the right call, you could try it the other way. Just to make sure you weren't wrong. Because in my eyes, it's not going to be common that people will leave an aram just because the enemy team has a sona for example.

Wouldn't this be true of remake then? They refuse to surrender in 4v5, so they refuse to remake also?

I was just about to say this. People will get into a game and just quit because they don’t like the opposing team’s composition, or as you said, unhappy with their champion.

I know it's not a reddit popular answer...but this is why. We considered it pretty heavily, but didn't feel the risk was worth it, and would lead to a very large increase in AFK's.

Making me have an epic gamer moment by forcing a 4v5 when the other 9 want to remake isn't cool. It doesn't stop afking. It just makes it as painful as possible.

Please take some time off of TFT, cho eats the world, riot board games, merchandising, esports, and whatever else you're in charge of to reconsider this awful decision.

This is probably not the right way to get a response...

Nice. You should be better at announcing thinks like this. Clash and other game modes are super hype/fun to play and you should advertise it more on reddit/the ingame client!! Just friendly criticism
