Galio's W should work like Nunu's W and Morde's W

If you cast it on ally it also casts it on yourself, giving the Ally 50% of the Heal and 50% of the Armor and MR bonuses while also giving Galio only 50% of the heal amount per hit from an Ally

This would give 15/22.5/30/37.5/45 Armor and MR to an Ally This would heal an ally for a max of 62.5/100/137.5/175/212.5 (+ 75% AP)

POSSIBLY adjusting the healing to take more hits to get a full heal to balance it

Adjust healing to 12.5/20/27.5/35/42.5 (+ 15% AP) per hit but 10% weaker per consecutive rather than 20% weaker so that the cap is the same but the healing per hit is much less than on live. This doesn't really effect Lane Galio because he mostly hits cap fast from Minion aggro.

This would allow Support Galio to be playable without making him ridiculous.

With this change you could also make his W give 50/60/70/80/90 instead of 30/45/60/75/90

Would make the pocket pick of Galio support OP as heck for certain match-ups. You do know just how high that ability scales right? Granting both laners in a bot lane all-in up anywhere from 30 to 90 additional Armor and MR is just... yeah. There is no winning against that early before completed core items make penetration items worth buying.

Throw in being healed on Galio for either you or your ally being hit and it gets downright ludicrous to deal with.

I can see it now

"Ok, Galio seems pretty low, lets just wreck the adc and then finish him off- WHEREDIDHEGETALLTHATHEALTHFROM!?!?!?!?"

That would be really cool.

You prefer Armor & MR buffs over healing?

90 Armor and MR would be ridiculous.

Huh, then you must have never played Urgot

Urgot is a terrible champion anyway.

90 Armor and MR for your carry would be pretty handy and its on demand instead of requiring a channel.

only if it gets nerfed, gallios W is one of the most powerfull defense steriods in the game, probably the strongest non ult, kinda doubling it'S power would be insane

Unless the resistances were halved for each person kinda like a Taric Heal.

E.g. W yourself = 40, W an Ally = 20 each.

it's less the def stats, even though they're pretty high, it's more the massive healing. not sure if i would want the healing to be halfed, as the clue with gallio is putting your W on the current focus target.

That's always seemed pretty silly to me, though. It's one of the less healthy parts of his kit.

Galio requires gold and levels as a solo laner, dont do support galio please, just because he plays a supportive role does not mean he is a support position

heal wouldn't need to be adjusted, and the problem is the 90 defenses at rank 5 not the early game defenses at rank 1 if it casted on him and an ally champion

I see you've changed your first post since I've last been in here, and that last suggestion of making his W start at 50 of each resist for self-casting and go 10 per rank is a very bad idea.

Do you realize Galio can already easily hit 80 MR at level 2? Your change would let him hit 100+ MR at that level. Early AP harass might as well not exist at that point. Not to mention that kind of AR boost would also give him unbelievable trade advantage top lane against most melee. Seriously that is essentially a free Abyssal in MR and a free Zhonya in AR available on demand.

And to really cap it off, his W is also converted by his passive. That also means that at level two he would have access to an AP boost greater than that of an Amp Tome. Which can be applied to any of his other abilities.
