Galio's Q nerf

Didn't riot's balance team decision on it make it a bit too much weaker? It's less than 1/3 of it's original damage due to not only changing the % max hp damage but the ap ratio as well. Honestly Galio isn't that strong early especially when they reduced his base damage on his Q this patch so they could buff it in other ways. Now his Q only gains .05 more ap ratio and have to stack up the % health even more due to it being hit hard. Could've made it at least 1.5% or 2% per 100. So now he would be more reliant on late game since his early game as ap galio is going to be pretty weak. His other abilities aren't as strong not to mention his ult can't be self cast like pantheon's.

Also any suggestions on a new viable build to help him get to late game and be strong?
