Tips Against Galio in Mid Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors

BriarFeetLicker says “The Nasus vs Galio matchup is easy . Galio is a tanky mage with strong poke, crowd control, and wave-clear, which can make farming Q stacks difficult early, but he is less oppressive than ranged poke mages like Azir or Cassiopeia. Galio’s Q (Punching Combo) and E (Justice Punch) provide poke and engage potential, while W (Shield of Durand) and R (Hero’s Entrance) allow him to control trades and assist side lanes. Early levels require caution. Galio can trade with Nasus using his poke and taunt, especially if Nasus overextends, but Wither helps reduce his threat in all-ins. Galio’s damage is significant but not instant, so careful wave management and minion positioning can allow Nasus to farm safely and stack Q effectively. Mid-game, Galio’s roaming potential increases the threat level, as he can influence other lanes and leave Nasus isolated. However, once Nasus reaches his core items, he can withstand trades and outscale Galio in sustained fights, particularly in extended engagements where Galio’s burst is mitigated.”
EueAmor says “Apesar de ter uma vida elevada, é muito fácil ganhar do Galio na rota; você consegue fugir do controle de grupo com facilidade usando o W e depois punir ele por estar avançado.”

L0ganJG says “Galio matchup is very interesting sometimes. If he goes FULL AP ELECTROCUTE, you have to be very smart about your approaches. He will try to knock you up during your W1>Q and he will likely win the engage. BUT if you W1 his engage, you DESTROY him. If he goes a tanky build, BotRK can bring you a free win. Reach a point where you're tanky enough to deal with his combo then play for damage items. Buffering your E into his dash or Ult engage is VERY GOOD. Also you can ultimate where he ults and the timing is super easy”

EggPlantEgg says “Very bing chilling matchup, don't play ego and if he doesn't have mercury the yellow card stun is long enough that if he doesn't hit you with his E you can escape and kite him back.”

danimedie says “Too tanky to burst. Take First Strike and farm gold. Do not expect to kill him 1v1 unless he makes a massive mistake.”

Yoyos says “Matchup is whatever, pretty boring tbh. Very playable. This is a phase rush game with CDR boots. You will never solo the Galio so just focus on not face-tanking an E W combo and you'll be fine. This is a great game for phase rush, precision secondary, with CDR boots. Blackfire torch and Liandrys is good here.”

Marlonrank1 says “u have kill pressure only until first recall then its rather hard to kill him when he has MR unless he goes ap then its just skill matchup”

Rainbow hater says “Runes: Aery with gathering storm Build: Standard Reasoning: 1. Before first item zoe can actually kill galio, and bully him hard in lane but afterwards its very hard for zoe too kill him Lane: Standard melee matchup, slow push wave and poke with short range q early game. Track his jungler as galio has really good gank setup, and constantly keep him pushed in to prevent him from roaming. Its hard for him to kill you solo unless he goes full ap, then its very easy to bully him in lane. ”

kekseres says “Everything about that champion is great against Katarina, he is only worse at all ins. So i go AD Kata with full lane runes and try to kill him lvl2/3/4. Mercs is very good purchase later on against that character. If he plays Phase Rush it's not so easy to all in him.”
Deylan says “electro + longsword refils I dont think its *hard* matchup but its pretty unkillable. you can kill him dont get me wrong but with his w he is tanky enough to survive your burst. if you dont get early kill on him or someone else consider going tiamat -> hubris and look for roams”
