Clunky cast times on his movement speed ability E, terrible hit box on Q, ult is on a three hour cooldown, W is a great ability, but doesn't always feel noticeable for the ally you put it on.
He's got a lot of potential to be a good and fun champion, but a lot of things are holding him back.
ModKnightsKemplar1 votesAgreed. His pick rate is in the dumpster for a reason, and Riot is surely aware of it.
bobbery51 votesThe problem is that with the way things are leaning nowadays, he's getting more and more unpicked. I love Galio, and he's really strong. The problem is that more and more teams are consisting of only AD champions, making Galio useless. I can wreck a Lux with Galio, but being put against an AD mid spells instant death pretty much every time.
The Bearded Bard1 votesGalio is anything but useless against AD champs. Just because he scales off MR, doesn't mean he's bad vs AD champs. He still gets 90 bonus armor from W, and heals off every auto they dish out. He's fine vs ad. I'm fine with his kit, what I'm not fine with is exactly what this thread is about. Clunky cast time on a movement speed ability, terrible hit box on Q, W feels lackluster when used on allies, and ult has a ridiculously long cd at all points of the game.
