Versuche, den Gegner zu flankieren, oder Situationen auszunutzen, in denen „Wurzelfänge“ unausweichlich ist oder den Gegner überrascht.
Sprösslinge, die ins Gebüsch geworfen werden, sind stärker – doch in der Gruppe nicht unbedingt effektiver.
Garen wird nur durch Abklingzeiten in seine Schranken gewiesen, deshalb sind Gegenstände wie „Schwarzes Beil“ für ihn besonders lohnenswert.
Garens Regeneration erhöht sich außerordentlich stark, wenn er einige Sekunden lang Schaden vermeiden kann.
„Richten“ verursacht maximalen Schaden, wenn es nur ein einzelnes Ziel trifft. Um effektiv zu sein, versuche dich so zu positionieren, dass nur der gegnerische Champion getroffen wird.

Overall, Maokai sees a very large drop in his KDA (ratio of kills and assists to deaths) when paired with Garen. His KDA fell from NaN to NaN.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing alongside Garen.
Moreover, when Maokai plays with Garen on the same side, he usually takes a little less damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage could mean that Garen does a decent job of covering Maokai during team fights.
