Riot. Just admit it. You messed up with Galio’s ultimate design. Whoever thought an Pantheon ultimate plus a damage reducing version of Shen ultimate with an AOE knockup would be fair clearly needs to re-learn how power balancing works. Because Galio’s ultimate has so much power the rest of his kit has suffered which sucks because the rest of his kit isn’t really too bad in comparison. Passive’s an empowered auto attack that rewards landing abilities on multiple players, Q’s maybe got too much waveclear potential but is overall not broken anymore, W is powerful but super telegraphed, as well as his E.

I understand that there are other problems with him as well like his waveclear, his easy combo potential, and his ability in pro play, but I honestly think this problem surpasses the rest.

What I propose is taking something out of the ultimate completely and buffing the rest of his kit to make him a bit more oppressive but have his ultimate be less of a hassle. Here are some examples of stuff you could do to his Ultimate to nerf it and buff him elsewhere

  • make the inner circle of the Ult knock up while the outer circle only slows
  • remove the damage reduction and make it a free target cast
  • increase the time it takes for Galio to take off and land
  • decrease the circle area overall
  • heavily decrease its damage on enemies on the outer ring

Any one of these nerfs could easily make Galio’s kit less of a nightmare to balance for pros. So please Riot just give up while your behind because I’m tired of my boy being at a below 45%WR. Clearly just randomly making him more AP reliant and nerfing his Ult cooldown and mana where the wrong moves. Now it’s time to make more major changes. BUT TO ONE THING AT A TIME THIS TIME PLEASE.
