Galio's VGU would have felt more appropriate for Malphite

Please, consider what I am saying. It is largely OPINION

When someone says Gargoyle, what do you think of? I think of tanky little gremlins who are quite immobile, but quite damaging.

When someone says Mountain, what do you think of? A scary giant being who avalanches and crushes everything.

At this point in time, I think we could swap the two. I'm not hating anything, I just think the two are mixed up, or at least, thematically overlapping.

When I think Gargoyle I think of the Gothic sculptures adorning church tops that repel evil.

So basically new Galio.

hes not wrong though. i mean his new personality would have really fit malphite. also the ultimates are kindof similar. except for the fact that galios is a defensive ult of course.

then again, the old galio didnt have much of a personality to begin with, so any change this magnitude to the character might have felt a bit weird.

I just feel like Galio is a whole new person. I wish he was a bit more mellow/sorrowful, that's how I saw Galio.

All his new abilities, they're telegraphed and relatively slow, like a mountain. It feels like Galio collides with you. Not like a Gargoyle, like a Mountain.

That's just an opinion though. A League Opinion!
