About Galio rework there's 4 important things that riot should keep

Janna mìd··1 votes·1,470 views

Hi, as u know Warwick's rework is almost out on live now and he looks really cool, and the next one is the Galio one I'm a Galio main (that is currently tryin to get mastery 7 but i can't get that one last s this is legit sad) so i'm not new to this champ Of course this is just my opinion and this does only involve my beliefs (and perhaps yours if you do agree with me (i'm pretty damn edgy lmao)) And I think there is four important things that riot should keep with galio's rework (how unexpected) ; this is not 5 since they already said he won't have his bullwark anymore (this is going to miss me) Sooo here they are

1 - His personnality/lore since it's pretty much what define who mah boi galio is, I mean I know they ain't changing champ's personnality that much but look at ryze and the way he is parano with his scroll since his rework seriously

2 - His ultimate cuz well it's a good and satisfaying ult (except when there is a braum fucker in the ennemy team)

3 - The fact that he does counter mage since with his ult and personnality it is what make the most galio galio and btw funny fact i also happen to play kassadin so idk why but i'm really into mage counters (told yah it was a funny fact)

4 - I think this one is the one thing that might change and where some people might disagree with me but i truly believe that another really important aspect of him is that he is and should stay viable when building full ap, tank, and mixed. With point 2 and point 5 (see above) that is going to be mia that's what made me main galio. It's not like full ap galio and full tank galio is cancerous to play against cuz well if he's going full ap, his ult is kinda like a suicide mission (i don't mean to offend anyone here btw i know there's people that don't have easy lives) and he's not really tanky but he'll deal tons of damage and if he's going full tank he is not that usefull if he's ult is on cooldown but he won't ever die

What i really like about this point 4 and what makes it important to the point where i do a post about it (cuz i don't like posting actually since i'm a whiny girl and i have tons (this is an hyperbole btw) of downvotes, and i can't properly talk english on top of that) is that I really like to have a lot of options for what i should build on galio so i can adjust to any situation with him even if he is supposed to be a situational pick. With the new champions that riot made well sure they have cool abilities while galio's basic ones are a bit more generic (outside of his w) but they always have the same build, and the items is also a part of the things that make a champ cool. If you look through my games u'll see that i only had one different build on my galio recently which is an almost full glass canon galio but 2 months ago i was building mixed with windspeaker instead of deathfire and it worked as well and the fact that thunderlords, colossus, and grasp/bond on certain roles are viable too is really cool, the fact that being able to build on the same champ more than half all the items that exists and still be somewhat viable is what makes galio fun to play (there's is some people that think he is boring but his w and ult are actually really fun)

I genuinely don't know what to feel about this rework, i'm hyped cuz it's always exciting, happy cuz they're gonna keep at least the 3 first points i'm pretty sure but also scared i mean they made me stop playing xerath since his rework, and i've got all the skins on galio it would be stupid that i stop playing him (btw i'm gonna had the name yasuo here so they'll be more people coming to this topic because they typed yasuo in the search option to complain about it c: (i love complaining about yasuo too))

Anyway I'm gonna add a poll cuz i love this kind of shit and i hope u do agree with me and if you don't then feel free to explain why

His ultimate is bound to change > Imagine a dash or something His abilities ll gain more interactions between eachother

I assume his W as a unique part ll stay

Thats my guess

From what reav1 and meddler said I think he's E will be turn into a dash (that might let a trail behind like the actual E idk), his ult won't change that much, he'll have some mr ratios, and his w will just disappear like his passive But I could be wrong I mean it's 2am for me (i guess it's even later in eune) so I'm not that wake up actually

Wait, Reav3 and Meddler said that his E would become a dash?

They said that it might become a dash (and it ain't really a surprise for me cuz they're saying that he should not need his flash to use his ult but they're saying they'll keep the ult with little to no changes on it so i always thought they wanted to give him some mobility)

They said the goal is for him to be a Warden, and to keep his identity as an Anti-Magic Tank, as well as a Tank that can be played mid lane.

His ultimate will stay. It's very iconic and unique and it defines him.

Well i might be wrong but i don't really feel like his identity is a tank, he never was fully tank or fully mage but a mix of both so it's kinda sad to see that

Specifically, they said Warden primary, Battle Mage hybrid.

So his primary deal will be to protect his team, but he'll also be able to deal decent magic damage and have good self-survivability.

Personally, full tank is my favorite way to play Galio.

Battle mage will stay ? Cool then (:

I kinda like full ap and mixed a bit more than full tank for myself but I think full tank is cool too And from what you said it seems he'll still be viable full tank and mixed so that's not too bad (:

I thought urgot was next? But in all honesty, I feel like giving Galio the option to build ap, tank, or both and still be strong would be a little too powerful. I'm fine with building ap or tank but building both and being strong means that nothing would be safe, as you could survive the melees and burt the mages.

Well by saying both I don't mean at the same time, i just feel like it would be cool that if he wanted ap and tankiness in the same game galio could have a bit of both kinda like a bruiser

And actually Galio is before urgot on their list

Okay, that makes more sense. I think we can both agree that if someone was able to build all the way on two major stats that fall under two different damage categories, it would be incredibly unhealthy as they would be too powerful

I totally agree I don't want Galio to be too powerful since I don't like abusing what is too strong, there is no merit in that i think And it would not be fun for everyone neither

I wouldn't mind if they redid his entire kit. Too much of his power is in his ult imo

Actually Amumu's ult is as strong if not better since it is easier to land, and is sure to last 2s while it's not the case for Galio But if you do have a morgana and a kalista in the same team as galio, that might be some damn powerful ults that's right but I also feel like Galio's ult is perhaps doing a lil bit too much damage to be totally balanced it's true

Here is what I think maybe what could be fun new abilities why maintaining his aspects. Galio Passive

Scaling armor and MR per level (Simple passive to keep him tanky)

Q. Next Auto is empowered and stuns the target (maybe use his horns)

W. (call it like heroic dive or something) He dives at a target (Targeted, not skillshot) However its at a angle similar to dianas Q except it can be casted on his right or left, and he is flying in this animation

E Stone Stance He channels for a short time and now he has what was similar to his old shield thing but it can only be on him

R 2 options Keep the old one but add a twist to make it more interesting. Or We use those big wings and have a HUGE aoe knock back but galio is immobile when this knock back is going on

I like your W, E and ult (especially the not so changed one) but i've never been a huge fan of empowered AA and for his Passive i'm really hyped for what everyone is suggesting (some kind of interaction with turrets) so i'm not sure what to feel about this part of the kit you proposed Though, I like the fact that you want him to still have a simple and not overloaded kit cuz well this is almost becoming rare on lol

Yea I wasnt sure about the Q or ult to much, I just thought he needed something to do once he got the target with the w

I was hoping this was a meme post where you'd say the four things that need to stay are:

Q W E R

Oh well.
