You know Galio's Q does 400-500+ damage right?

Not really. It has a massive hitbox and is very fast. Dodging it unless you are right at max range is mathematically impossible for most champs.

You know it can be dodged right? Just like every other ability in his kit.

While it can be dodged yes, it actually is very annoying to deal with. Honestly they should have removed some of the damage in his Q and kept the damage reduction in his ultimate.

How he is currently is that if an Orianna for example ulties the entire enemy team, he can E in, knock them all up, W and then Q to pentakill. Q half healthing people easy, and he is fairly tanky at that. It makes for a nastey combo that doesnt really fit how he is described much at all.... a protector. Though death is the greatest cc, this takes it to a whole new level.

Obviously you can dodge it but its one of those ability’s like W where the chances of hitting at least 0.25 seconds of it is almost gaurunteed.

However in Galio’s case 0.25 seconds is like a third of your health before he even has items.

is Tier S on soloQ and pro play, absolutely broken

You can't dodge it if you're taunted...

Sure it can be dodged if he only uses Q. But if the enemy hits either E or W . You can't do shit. You have to back and lose EXP and G. It's not very healthy design when laning phase depends on you not getting hit by ANY of the enemy spells. I would be cool if they just made it deal 50% damage to minions at least. at level 9 iirc galio with 1 roa can one-rotation kill the whole wave and we already know he has superior roaming potential. Just a busted ass champion compared to any other champ with comparable global/semiglobal ultimates.

Except for dash q combo is a lot harder to avoid. Not to mention ult dash q combo.

Meanwhile Vel Q is 240+80% and nobody complains.

Yes, but he is squishy and doesnt have any dashes, and are all needing some pretty decent skill to land.

whats wrong wtih that? he's a poke mage.

can people stop this ''just dodge it'' bs response to everything? if ''just dodge it'' was valid counterplay to skillshots then skillshots champion would all be garbage tier in pro play, but hey turns out they're not, wonder why!

because you can always "just hit skillshots"

stuff is balanced because it's dodgable, morg q for example. of course there's a limit to this though, if something does 90% of my hp and has a giant hitbox then no that's not really ok.

You know that Galio is along with Cassiopeia the strongest midlaner in the game right?

This thread has more sense than any of the 1728 threads crying about Zed or Yasuo that reach the front page.

Imagine taking full damage from an easily avoided AOE DOT.

Imagine the enemy is not iron-silver and can actually use his spells in the correct rotation. We are talking about initial not the dot. None stands in the dot. Name another global champ that can do so much damages.

Technically the dot damage is pretty small, getting nailed at the end of the skillshot means you (currently) take at max 230 (+90% AP) flat magic damage +2% (+1.33% per 100 Ap) max health damage. Only the % damage is the DOT and not a lot of his damage at all.

meaning just the side gusts that deal 230 (+90% AP) immediately are the problem. (Not to mention the skillshot, while slow, can literally surround you if he ever gets close enough, and with the recent dash buffs getting close is pretty easy).
