[EXTRA WIP] Galio Base armor lowered from 27 to 24 Winds of War (Q) combined tornado damage lowered from 45/60/75/90/105 to 30/40/50/60/70

Hero's Entrance (R) AP ratio increased from 70% to 80%

Why are you targeting the poor AP Galio, just nerf his tanky side not his ap side, he always used to be played AP because thats what he used be played as.

Tank galio doesn't even build AP, Buff his AP ratio but nerf his base AP Damage.

Reduction in base Armor, and a base damage nerf to his Q. I would say that pretty much targets his tank build, as it requires him to splurge a little more in armor, while limiting the damage his Q can do without AP. (It's not like his AP ratios were hit)

They aren't 'buffing' so Galio. They are just nerfing him all together. He will be a lot weaker without triple Doran and now he is going to be weaker in late game base damage. So you'll have to build atkeast an AP item now to bring him back up to his base damage nerf. Or you can eat the poke dmg red and still this tanky.

His reliability is shot to he'll with these nerfs and his ok solo w performance will be awful while his pro performance will be slightly weaker.

Kennens 'nerfs' to try and make him ap and not on hit makes no sense.

Galio is eating garbage after these two patches while lemme gets stronger as part of his nerf.

GALIO IS A TANK

he should have TANK STATS

he is no longer a mage

the rework /redesign made him INTO A TANK [zombie-brand-facepalm]

For me he is a Bruiser, he is a battlemage not a stupid tank.

Just because he's listed as a tank, doesn't mean he should only have one playstyle. It also doesn't mean he must only be played as a tank.

ok build ap .. .the OP is crying is too good of a tank and needs his tank stats nerfed

He's saying they're nerfing ap Galio not tank Galio. He's wrong though. They're buffing ap and nerfing tank.

That's like, the opposite of what that means. Increasing the AP ratio means that less AP is needed for the same effect. An ability with a 70% AP ratio translates 70% of your AP to damage, while an 80% ratio translates 80% of it to damage

Hum, that's what they did? They do nerfed his base damage on Q, and the compensatory ratio on R will be useless for Tank Gallio. They did exactly what you're asking for?

How are they targeting AP Galio here? This looks like it's supposed to be hitting Tank Galio. Losing 3 armor, sure, that's a hit to the build. Losing base damage of the Q, however, is not a REAL hindrance, while the AP buff on the ultimate is great without buffing Tank Galio really at all
