Hey Riot I have an idea, and it may seem a bit unorthodox, esoteric even, but what if Galio's Q didn't have %health damage? I know that's insane, a nuke that doesn't 1 shot tanks. But I think you should try it.
Automated Riven6 votes1166 AP. Nobody gets that in an actual game besides viegar.
ChompyWulf3 votesAlso, who would just sit in his tornado? Just nonsense video.
Nanuk Pihoqahiak2 votesSo you're saying melee should never actually fight Galio, and that CC, slows, and other impairments aren't a thing?
ChompyWulf1 votesWhy should melee not fight Galio? They are just as able to sidestep as ranged champs. Taunt and knock up have been part of how you use Galio to set up and deal damage, yes. They are on fairly long cooldowns and you must be aware of them. As another pointed out, that AP level is highly unlikely and the Cho likely had no MR built.
Nanuk Pihoqahiak2 votesHe only needs 2-3 damage items to hit around 50 percent max health damage with his Q. That's JUST his Q, and doesn't even account for the base damage. You're also not account for his passive, E, ult, Luden's, or Thunderlords. There's so many variables that make this buff he got cheesy. I mention melee because all he has to do is taunt their engage for his (Now massively scaling) damage reduction, and then Q - E and they are dead. No other input needed.
Ralanr1 votesIf I remember correctly his Q doesn’t have Base damage anymore.
I’m probably wrong.
Variks the Loyal2 votesIt does, but it's something small. At max rank it's like, 23 per tick.
ChompyWulf2 votesIf you throw Q then wait for the E windup to hit them, they will be out of the whirlwind. Proper combo is to drop the Q on them after E lands.
Nanuk Pihoqahiak2 votesI'm not even talking about combos. It's very risky to E into Q mid / late with the current state of ADCs. I just carried a game as AP Galio because nobody banned him. Amumu died in 1.5 seconds, and I had 107% max health damage on my Q at the end. My role was basically poke mage that transitions into deleting people during cc. You only use his Taunt if you're being targeted by an assassin or you're absolutely sure it'll make a play for the rest of your team, or you need to keep a melee still so you can instantly kill them.
The bottom line though is that this buff was pretty stupid.
D3m37r11 votesAlso i'm pretty sure that cho hasn't built any mr.
Achilles Herz2 votesthat's some stupid damage. I hope they nerf him to the ground
