Galios Q is overtunned.

i normaly never say this about a reworked or new champion, but this guys Q does insane dmg just at rank 1 with thunderlords. if you are not careful 1 Q as a mid laner will chunk a good 40% or more of your HP even as a top laner its still going to be chunking you very hard untill you get some defenses. the ticks and duration on it is so short that it will do its full dmg before you can escape as long as its landed dead center, and thats the real problem with it. the duration and ticks should be a bit longer to give people enough time to escape the dmg. if he gets rylais its just rip for any mid laner. to put it into perspective:

dmg = 105(+60% ap)(+40% ap total tick dmg)(+9% max HP total tick dmg) + thunderlords. a typical midlaner only has 572 HP or less if they buy dorans. Again, the main issue is how short of a duration on top of ticks it has. 1.5 seconds to do its full dmg. lvl 1 no boots you are not walking out of that if it hits you center, so all it takes is one misstep when you are trying to cs and you are going to get chunked near half your hp. the skill also scales very hard, stupidly hard infact. so its going to be hitting you even harder as the lane goes on.

but even if you dont get the full tick dmg one of the two projectiles is going to be hitting you for 60(+60% AP) to 200(+60% AP). and its not like its easy to dodge, its basically two diana Qs coming at you from a tank that gets even more dmg by building MR...

Mantra empowered Q from Karma deals 105 (+90% AP) with an additionnal 50(60% AP) at lvl 1. With 40 AP from runes and Doran's Ring , she can deal up to 215. Add an auto-attack which would proc thunderlords and you're looking at a much bigger chunk of damage from a bigger range.

Karma Q is more overtunned

Karma Q is more overtunned

but karma isnt a giant tank with 3 forms of CC that gets even more dmg by building MR against her AP mid opponent.

why would he need a heal when u can rush item 3001 and item 3102 on top of his giant dmg reduction W + shield and simply not take dmg from AP while also converting the MR to dmg?

He only converts MR to damage with his passive.

All you're really saying is that he's strong against AP. That's intended.

but galio isn't a ranged champion with team-wide shield and movement speed boost that can also pin down anyone that gets too close of her/can't escape her

he does have 3 forms of CC, but each of them are really hard to land and have an incredibly short duration. If you stood in the middle of his ult, got hit by his E and stay in his fully charged taunt... he probably deserved the kill.

Have you laned against or been ganked by a Nautilus? He's so much more scary and does more damage while being tankier and providing more CC.

Galios bases in general are overtuned.

Your right i faced him top today and the first thing that struck me was the ridiculous damage i took from the ticks of the Q and he BARELY used any fkin mana spamming that shit

Dodging Galio's Q is about as easy as dodging a Morg Q.

Even if it hits first, you have more than enough time to walk out.
