Rito, how could you forget one of the most basic bits of knowledge?

Grass is super effective vs Rock.

If anything, Maokai should heal DOUBLE from towers!

Mecha Malphite is probably Steel/Rock so at most it hits for neutral damage.

It's still a grass type move. He just doesn't get the STAB bonus on it with that skin.

Especially Galio, who's build out of magic repelling stone.

Isn't it more like magic-absorbent stone?

I think it was magic suppression that became punch magic in the face?

DorkunedAuras1 votes

I'm pretty sure it's some combination of magic suppression and absorbtion. And yes, magic punch in face.

Tree magic can't sap stone beams?

It wouldn't work on Galio anyway.

Magic damage doesn't exist to him.

wouldn't galio just heal himself since he eats magic

EvilUnicornLord3 votes

It wouldn't heal him but he wouldn't be hungry anymore.

######Now, Gameplay-wise, that'd be old Galio.

I said Galio not Yasuo.

In fact, gimme a moment, I'm gonna crunch some numbers.

It was just a meme, bro....I will now prepare my body for the wall of text.

Lesee, Syndra does 1,260 magic damage with 7 spheres at a max rank ultimate and no AP

Galio can eat that up no probs.

There, math done.

######I hate math.

No one asked you to do math in the first place. Also you had a larger chunk of text ready for me, didn't ya?

I was, but then I realized I had to calculate with tons of percentages (like AP and MR) and just noped the heck out.

Psst! Hey!.

A Syndra with flat AP marks and quints.

Using a build like item 3020 item 3165 item 3285 item 3089 item 3135 item 3116 item 2139 will have 600,966 AP 600~ for ease of math.

Against a target with roughly 165 mr.

With a 7 balls ulti. At lvl 18.

  • 1 ball = 180 + (0,2 AP )

  • 7 balls = 180 x 7 + (( 0,2 x 0,7)600) = 1260 + ( 1,4 x 600) = 1260 + 840 = 2100 damage.

  • thunderlord = 240

  • Luden = 160

= 2500 magic damage.

Before magic resist.

But with sorc shoes and void staff 165 mr is pushed down to 100,5.

Incidentally, 100 armor or mr is exactly 50% damage reduction.

  • 2500 x 0,5 = 1250 Magic damage.

Here is a wall of text for you to enjoy.

What about Galio's spellshield on his W?

What about Galio's spellshield on his W?

Isn't that quite simple? ....I think?

His W reduces damage taken like this : 40% (+ 8% per 100 bonus magic resistance) At max W rank +lvl 18

Easy enough to understand, only headache is that i´d have to account for his items as well. He´d probably build at least item 3111 item 3102 item 3001 and maybe a item 3193 ?

Well, assuming that he builds all of it it's 187 magic resist together with standard runes.

40+Mr with 3 enemies around.

But's lets assume it's just 187.

Looking at the fact that 100 mr is worth 8% damage reduction one can math out that 1% is worth roughly 12,5 MR.

So 8% + ( 87 /12,5 = 6,96=7~) 8+7=15.

So 40+15%.

55%.

Just factor that in ,....probably after his magic resistance? Maybe?

He would probably have like 55 base mr so 242 in total.

242 x 0.65 (void staff reduction) = 157,3 - 15 from sorc boots = 142.

150 armor or mr is 60% reduction. 142 should be something like....55% because i say so.

So Syndra's ulti+ extra effects did 2,500 dmg.

2,500 x 0,45 = 1125 after all that magic resist.

1125 x 0,45 ( the % left after galio W reduction) =506.25 magic damage.

Conclusion.

Any Syndra player that actually takes the effort to setup such a beautiful ultimate and uses it on Galio during his W should be embarrassed about themselves, really, really embarrassed.

A new wall of text all for you to enjoy ^^

Wow, I really appreciate you doing the math so I don't have to! [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

You didn't take into account damage from AP, magic penetration, magic resistance, shields, health, levels, runes and masteries.

Because they're both magic rocks, so he's sapping the magic, not the stone...

Technically Galio isn't a stone monument anymore. if i remember right he's made from an ancient magic absorbing wood with the strength of stone.

i thought he was made out of some sort of magic absorbing marble (aka a type of stone), along with most other structures in Demacia?

Sinlaire1 votes

nope. im a solid 90% sure it's just a really hard tree.

i remember the lore talking about how Demacia before it was founded was a massive forest where they discovered all magic withered and died in it. Then they chopped down the forest and built their cities out of it.

Which is why they can't take the anti-magic of demacia with them. not because it's heavy stone, but because of the trees the country is founded in.

DorkunedAuras2 votes

They discovered they could make a material even better at flipping off mages using stone and the trees. It's a composite. That's the material they used to build Demacia and Galio out of.

ohhh, thank you, more knowledgeable person :) i didn't read any of the Demacian lore (including Galio). i only read about the anti-magic material from a few different people on the boards. you and DarkenedAuras have been a good help clearing up my understanding of the Demacian structures :)
