Tips for Playing as Garen with Dr. Mundo

Garen is only constrained by cooldowns, making items such as Black Cleaver very effective for him.

Garen's regeneration greatly increases if he can avoid receiving damage for several seconds.

Judgment deals maximum damage when only hitting a single target. For effective trading, try to position such that only the enemy champion is hit.
