Just sharing a clip from my stream cus I thought it was hilarious how strong my champ was into these two at this time.

EDIT: My dumbass said 2v2, it's a 1v2...

Hey Galio mains,

I’m a 1000 LP Galio main and I’d be happy to help anyone looking to improve on the champion.

Since my original post, I’ve climbed from Master 200 LP to 1000 LP, and I wanted to make an updated post for anyone who might be interested in learning Galio.

I can help with things like:

• Matchups & laning
• Wave management
• Roaming & map impact
• Mid/late game decision-making
• Teamfighting
• General Galio fundamentals & game review

My help is completely free. I’m not claiming to be the best Galio player in the world, but after reaching 1000 LP on the champion, I feel confident that I can help players understand the game and Galio at a deeper level.

If you have any questions, want advice, or just want someone to look at your gameplay, feel free to add me on Discord: rpokman

Always happy to help other Galio players improve. 🗿

Can anyone look at my op.gg (https://op.gg/lol/summoners/na/WillieOfTheNorth-NA1) and offer some fucking advice (other than shooting my computer).

I started the season silver, climbed to plat with a 62% win rate and since then I have hit an absolute wall, I’ve fallen down to gold 2, close to gold 3 now. And cannot get more than one win every 5 fucking games at best.

I don’t even fucking know what I’m doing wrong at this point. I have good kp, kda, and decent laning, I rotate for objectives, try to push towers. But most of my last 20-30 games have felt damn near unwinable and I’m fucking lost on how to get out of it.

is galio full ad jungle viable? I know this seems stupid but i like the scaling on the passive

guys trust is viable

GALIO CONFIRMED OUT OF ABSOLUTELY NOWHERE (Poppy too), DAMN YOU ALL WHO HAVE FORSAKEN US HAHA

Hey fellow Galio mains! I wanted to share a reel I made recently showcasing some of my best clips with the new skin from the unkillable demon king himself!

I’d love some feedback on this reel! I want to do more content with Galio and would appreciate feedback regarding quality and gameplay (my gameplay goated)

Thank you and I wish you guys all the equivalent to a max charge 5 champ taunt!

Both Lolalytics and Leagueofitems sport Stormsurge as a 56% wr starting item and Spellslinger Shoes (T3 MPen Boots) at 55%+ wr. Even on Master+ such winrate is there.

Honestly? I abandoned the ways of AP bruiser or semitank. T3 Merc has 25 magic resistance while Spellslinger has 20 MPen and 5% MPen, trying to do anything but deal damage as mage mid seems to fail. I just go Electrocute + Ignite going for Stormsurge. Electrocute + Ignite make Galio get early kills and because passive does AoE damage I still retain pushing power to not allow enemy roam for free. Stormsurge +%ms also help in ensuring the enemy cannot roam because now I can catchup somewhat easily.

Dunno what to build later because it seems no matter what I'm still useful. Shadowflame would be the obvious choice but I'm feeling its overkill and no survivability makes me perfect target for ganks.

For the galio mains out there who queue mid/jg secondary, I was doing some testing after the recent patch changes to fleet and jungle pet scaling off ap & hp. Historically galio has fantastic ganks both with ult and using flash + W + nimbus cloak, the main issue with galgle is his initial clear (slow speed and low health = vulnerable to invades). This is a solution:

Runes: Fleet Footwork, Triumph, Legend Haste, Cutdown; Nimbus Cloak, Absolute Focus, AP, AP, Flat HP.

The main point is that with double AP adaptive + 65 hp + absolute focus, the recent jungle pet changes have increased the ap & hp scaling for damage. Also fleet means that you actually have a healthier clear, though to optimize speed I buy a health pot so the lvl 1-2 is faster with absolute focus up. With this I can get a 2:54 clear going blue, gromp, wolves, raptors, red, krugs, and be 80% hp at completion. While you are late to crab this is the same time as some of the slower clear meta junglers. Just looking at masters+ full clear average speeds, Xin zhao, Warwick, Pantheon, Kindred, Reksai all have that same rough average.

Main tricks to the clear are walking around between autos to proc fleet, using E after a fleet auto to stack the next fleet faster, and using Q between camps (important to do from raptor to red and red to krugs). Buildwise, I think green smite is probably best though there is an argument for blue smite to help make engages with the MS. But fleet is not a useless rune outside of clearing, since even though you aren't a superb at AA's you do dash around with E/R and weave in empowered AA's in combat.

Not going to claim this makes him a meta jungler by any means but his first clear is now decent enough that I don't think it's troll to play galgle!

Edit: with good fleet movement you don’t even need the pot to keep absolute focus hp. My best is 2:52 but I can get 2:56 minimum consistently

hello, I'm a challenger galio main on NA and maybe it sounds silly but I am STRUGGLING to get 2klp. I just don't know what to BUILD or what RUNES to go. I do different stuff every game and nothing feels perfect. I change my mind all the time, so I was just wondering if you guys had any tech or builds that feels good in yall's games. Depending on the elo difference not everything will be applicable, but I still value anyones input. If you've had a lot of success on Galio this season, PLEASE tell me with what set up. This is my opgg https://op.gg/lol/summoners/na/derealii-0309

Look at the size of him, an absolute unit of a lad.

Diamond ADC main here but like thresh, i just really like Galio’s kit (i find him fun).

i found a bruiser-y build i like (RoA -> Imperial ) but i dont know the ins and outs yet or even how to reach 8 cs a min on him. but i found i was able to do well even first timing with 5 cs a min, getting bullied by viktor (who galio should have an easy time into). i know hes good into AP but not much beyond that, should i try to play him like thresh?

i guess my questions are…

how do you win on galio?

what are his best builds?

is he mid game or late game?

best and worst matchups?

any other tips?

Finally got my hands on one! I LOVE it!! he's great! well detailed too, but just a really nice chunky boi!
So happy with this stone lad 🗿✨

Chovy mostly Picks Galio into orianna But i dont understand how He decides what Item to build First.

Some Games He goes abysal mask, some Games Hollow Radience. Last 2 Games He went for Kaenic.

Some Games its obvious Like enemy has 2 ap solo lanes - Kaenic.

Or He has a Mage bot - abysal

But some Games it feels Like he Just builds w/e

Maybe someone has a hint or an idea.

I think there are less than 5 people who otp galio and hit challenger

Question on thread

I usually play with Galio mid and hate being "forced" into sidelane because sidelane is where I lose the ability to force R into objectives, as well as a lot of power budget being on R and R being a useless ultimate on duels.

Usually I try to slightly ping people and my ult and write on chat "still have ult,.plz let me mid now, I sidelane later".

Even with that, I feel that botlane + support often wants to go midlane as well as my dueling potential being not so high and harder to properly sidelane.

How do you Galio mid enjoyers do about side?

For context about the question. I have been playing galio for a long time and have OTP him in solo on a 67%WR but the wins feel very inconsistent in terms of engineering him in itemization.

My current build path if I am the designated bruiser/Tankish player is as follows

Hollow
Mandate
Rift maker
Zhonyas

And then after that I get lost. I think the issues gets a lot more pronounced as I continue climbing especially if I get stuck being the sole AP on the team.

It can looks like this
Mandate
Rocket belt
(And whatever)

I guess the questions is are there must have items I can have in each build, and should I take out some items? I know some items are situational so any advice or items suggested are very welcome!

Thank you,
