Tips Against Galio in Mid Lane Tips Provided by MOBAFire Guide Authors
Reize22 says “He's the malphite of midlane, so tanky and deals a lot of damage at the same time, you can't kill him nor he can especially if he runs MR early game, farm until lvl 7 then shove and roam but be careful he can easily follow up with his ult. Go TP”
0
BaldVlad says “A good galio will play around your weaknesses, like the fact you cant really skirmish that well early game, so he will force river fights knowing you cant really do sht.”
0
Zero macro says “Lux has quite a hard matchup into Magic Resist tank Galio after the early laning phase, especially when Galio gets access to his first item. This is due to Galio his E dash buffer into Lux Q snare can be set up easily for ganks and trades. Thereby pressure Galio later than early game will be very hard to do, due to his magic dmg mitigation and tankyness. Galio's presence in the game can be overwhelming due to his R + sidelane as well.
”

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.”
0
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”
0
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.”
0
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”
0
AntiMetaFae says “Galio is a skill matchup, but he has several build options. If he builds tank, it's almost impossible to push him out of lane, as he'll withstand almost all trades. If he builds AP, he'll almost certainly push you out of lane frequently.
Galio players have greater utility and lane presence against you, so be sure to watch out when he leaves lane and have your teleport ready if needed. Also, please be aware of any team fights that might occur nearby.”
0
Spaceturtlez says “My personal perma-ban due to popularity versus fizz, absolutely no way to mess up the counter play, AND an itemization that nullifies the AP build completely. On top of all of this, his wave-clear is better, he has more impact in cross-map situations, AND he does more damage early. The counter-play is pray he goes no aftershock and builds AP.
Ban him if you are mind-blocked, if not Standard runes + teleport. Grasp is viable, but you would rather just play CDR fizz against his team. ”

dilsadkat says “So heavy cc. Hard to win trades. Just farm vs galio. Or dodge his E/Q and trade.”

j4ss says “No threat, you do everything he does but better. Hard to kill since he builds tons of health, just perma push waves and follow his roamings. Focus in team fights and objectives.”
0
Corzn says “Galio stands for tanks played in the mid lane. The only real way to get killed by these type of matchups is when you take bad trades and they all in you on their next rotation OR you get baited and they CC you to setup for their jungler. Other than that there is no real kill pressure by these champions and you can basically try to kill them early on OR just oneshot the wave and look for a roam. Take First Strike or Aery into these matchups you can abuse both runes really really often against tanks.”
0
cyb3r1a says “runes/starting items: theres 2 ways to play this imo, if you want to try and kill him 1v1 you can go conqueror with bone plating unflinching and doran's blade, the safer way is to go conqueror with second wind and overgrowth and doran's shield and just scale.”
0
Kolashiu says “Can push : yes
Can play agressive : yes
Can solokill : yes
Gameplan : Solokill > Play with jgl > Roam(before6)
Abuse him early while you still can. Dodge his spells or he stats-check you, its fairly easy as he's a melee.
It's fine if you get hit by his W as it gives you a free bubble angle.
When you bubble him and he press W, he has a % damage reduction ( you can see it by him glowing a bit ). If you wait and Q right when your sleep end ( a little bit before or after is fine ), he won't have the damage reduction anymore and there you will deal you usual good damage. If he has mercury boots you won't have this window anymore as the sleep will be too short.
After he got one item you will just deal close to no damage to him, clear waves and roam/kill his team.
Don't forget to ping your team fast whenever you see him start moving to R, it's hard for your teammates to see it coming without your pings.
You can easily push and roam.”

KesNedd says “Cringe anti-AP champion, but pretty easy to play against. Easy to combo him, but also easy to get combo'ed. Before first recall he is weak, so take the push ahd try to punish. ”

BurnVictim69 says “Galio is a bit of a weird one. As long as you keep him at range and avoid his spells and CC, the lane should be manageable. The danger comes if he ever manages to land his full combo, thanks to his passive magic shield, he’ll almost always outdamage your return trade.”

risnao says “- annoying
- go conq, consider AD if team circumstances allow it
- don't let him poke w Q, and avoid the aoe from his passive on the wave
- if he wastes E and W then engage”

Peng04 says “Trade Pattern
- Buffer Galio E with my E
- Punish on Last hit
- Long Trades are good for me
Waves
Wave 1 - AA wave and Punish if he walks up or last hits
Wave 2 - Keep wave control and make sure Galio has a hard time
Goal
- Have Vision control around mid and be able to move first
- Secure good base ”

Quinfrey says “If it's ap or if he builds magic resist it's tiny. If he builds armor it's minor. Because then you don't do damage to him and he doesn't do damage to you.
I like to go [[Statikk Shiv]] against him but if he builds armor just build items for the rest of the team (if he's only tank lethality otherwise shiv+collector)
I also like to upgrade W first against him, it will help you dodge his [[Justice Punch]] and [[Winds Of War]]. The extra attack speed is also a big bonus in this matchup
You should win the trades at the start, he only has [[Winds Of War]] dmg but just [[Vault]] him when he uses it and you should be fine.
Just make sure you don't [[Vault]] his [[Justice Punch]] , you will get knocked up. Just e him right after, he will probably use his [[Shield Of Durand]] and you will get taunted, but you distance yourself from him.
If you can dodge his [[Justice Punch]] then go for a big trade, he shouldn't be able to do anything as long as you don't get taunted.”

Acidmoroman says “Enjoy, he has two stuns, but outside of his only ranged damage skill, you will outfarm him, poke him like you want, and make him waste the stun with your W.”

Corzn says “Galio represents every melee champion in mid lane who is not an assassin. Yes Galio has dashes and a good trade pattern but if you have hands he will never be able to reach you in lane. These type of champions will always be free scaling for AP Yunara.”

ChessScholar says “Annoying laning phase, don't push hard to get a kill, focus on Harvest stacks instead with Cut Down. With High R Haste, you can Ult around more often than he can follow you.
If anything, when you believe he will most likely follow your R roam, make sure he has to pay for it with minions under his turret. Build up waves to crash hard and look around.”

KingBranco says “Tips: Ive had some success with bone plating into Galio. Would always take conquerer + TP and boneplating secondary. Try to avoid being hit by q's (you can w them). Mostly you are just avoiding getting into his taunt range. If he does E in and taunt you. Fight back. Most damage is gone. BT rush into LDR could be fine if their team is very tanky. If squishy team apart from galio BT into collector/IE/LDR is fine. ”

Lymphocyte says “his W passive gives him a magic damage shield, that prevents you from poking him out of lane with Q.
has enough damage to kill you in 2 combos after lvl3.
has good wave clear so he never lets you roam/get prio.
can follow roams with ult after 6
builds 1 mr item and becomes unkillable.
you can not play the game. just farm with Q i guess. prey that they make a mistake.”

KomariLoL says “Galio has a lot of CC which makes it hard for Yasuo to win short trades against him. Luckily, his passive (AOE auto) and Q make it impossible for him to freeze. So when he inevitably pushes the wave, keep it frozen near your tower so you can go for longer trades or ask for a gank. Try to get hit by his E if he uses it to escape because it stops his dash.
His Q is Wind Wallable.
Dodge his E with your E. ”

neekogf says “across the map ult (take TP to match his R or roam when he is roaming/missing), insane mr, punishes you easily if you mess up, good gank potential for enemy jg

zSmoke says “The matchup against Galio is not that complicated, you have to play with Phase Rush and trade him and get out as quickly as possible, the speed of Phase Rush will make it so that he doesn't hit you with his W or you can dodge his E. In the laning phase what you should do is push as much as you can and play with your jg to get an advantage elsewhere (You won't be able to kill Galio very quickly)”

v0ltage38 says “Bone plating + scaling HP. Conqueror. Respect his ability range, his Q will hurt. His passive + Q poke will shove wave early on so you'll be safe to farm up. Once you hit an item or two, you'll start dealing some nice damage and out scaling. Void is a must buy either 3rd or 4th. ”

xumi_k says “It's supposed to be easy but actually hard. I played extremey rarely as Irelia vs Galio, but quite often as Galio vs Irelia, and Irelias I played against struggled. Fight early after he misses abilities(dance around minions to dodge them, especially knockup(E) ). His autos deal 0 damage (except for empowered one). Don't stand under his tower when he has W up (Taunt). Roam if you can before his lvl 6. After his lvl 6 he will roam too, and exactly onto you, crashing you with his R and his teammates. No fun. You need to be good at dodging his abilities to survive the lane, otherwise he'll eventally poke you to death :( Bro has a lot of damage early though+taunt and knockup. ”
0
Tamikaze says “This is and Zac mid are the only matchups I would recommend Liandry's Torment before Nashors. You don't get an opportunity to really have a good trade with Galio all lane, so the Q poke from Liandry's does significant damage against him, especially when all he builds is HP/MR into you. Try your best to keep your distance from his E (Dash), and if he goes in for a taunt, be ready to dash away with a simple W+E behind you. Save the Q for the return trade. Once you get Liandry's the lane becomes much easier, but for the early game your goal is to just not die to ganks, and farm up well. Be conscious of jungle fights, because Galio can ult in to turn the fight immediately. Be ready to inform your jungler of potential roams from him. However, if he does decide to ult, it's a massive CD of 180 seconds. ”

GreenReapers says “First strike or conqueror.
He really only is a threat early, when his damage is greater than your's while aftershock keeps him safe.
If you poke him enough while staying safe you can easily beat him after you get eclipse.
Play around his CC spells, as they can lead to him chunking you, so try to dodge them with you shadows as well as possible.”

Viktorias Secret says “You don't do damage.
And if by any chance you wanted to last hit creeps, you'll be at combo range from him, and you won't do damage.

Can protect allies from your damages, has a lot of CC and you're immobile mage.....”

sick204 says “Respect Galio's tankiness and crowd control potential with his abilities, especially his W and R. Use Yasuo's E to dodge Galio's abilities and minimize damage taken. Be cautious of Galio's roaming potential with his ultimate,, as he can quickly impact other lanes and turn the tide of fights. Utilize W to block Galio's Q and E in trades and team fights to reduce his damage output and engage potential. Engage on Galio when his abilities are on cooldown or when he's low on mana, as he can be vulnerable during these times. Consider building items like Mercury's Treads or Wit's End to mitigate Galio's crowd control and magic damage.”

SkandalloTV says “It depends if he goes tank or AP. If he goes tank and your team already has AP damage, go AD Irelia. It will be better. However, if your team needs AP damage, go for the long-range build and keep your distance. If he builds full AP, great, you'll be able to kill him way easier.”

otaliz says “The laning phase against him is easy, poke him when you can, especially pre-level 3. Always try to dodge his E and Q. Push the wave and force him to stay under his turret. He can follow your roam with his ultimate, so be aware of that. If you don't force him to decide between wave and roam, this will be a free game for him if he plays correctly.”

Laimaudeja says “Galio is one of the few laners that Ziggs has little kill pressure against, so I recommend using [[First Strike]] over [[Summon Aery]] to generate gold over time off of chip damage.
Whenever Galio uses [[Justice Punch]] to dash onto you and starts charging [[Shield of Durand]], use [[Satchel Charge]] to create distance as soon as possible. Shield of Durand's taunt duration is dependent on how long he manages to charge it, and Satchel Charge is very effective at cancelling the channel.
After Level 6, try to minimise Galio's opportunities to use [[Hero's Entrance]] effectively by using your superior waveclear to keep him in the lane. Match his roams with your [[Mega Inferno Bomb]], and try to stop Hero's Entrance with [[Satchel Charge]], if possible.”

Yannou-Ari says “Flash - TP - Scaling HP. FIRST STRIKE
Galio can't really kill you but you can't kill him either. You can poke him easily and have lane prio.
He will most likely try to push the whole game in order to find good ultis for his team, try to perma push the waves in order to prevent it.
Play with your jungler.
Maybe you look for the black torch liandry build if the rest of his team are tanks.”

ShokLoL says “Galio is weak in the laning phase but he may look to setup ganks onto you. If you want to be greedy, you can go for the first strike page. Otherwise you can take phase rush to make avoiding the ganks easier.”
0
ShokLoL says “Galio is not very good at punishing in the laning phase but he’s still very strong in the early game with the ability to push or neutralize most matchups and easily move to other lanes or skirmishes. Against Galio your main goals are to keep him in lane, punish his Q cooldown when he uses it to clear the wave and try to keep track of the enemy jungler. You should build up a significant 1v1 lead as long as you don't die to any jungle ganks.”
0
awawa says “He is tanky enough to not care about the damage you deal to him. You won't kill him in lane 1v1 early. Focus on farming, SPAM PING HIS R WHEN HES 6. The first thing he is gonna do lvl 6 is definitely ulting your team. Follow his ult roams.”

ShokLoL says “Against Galio your main goals are to keep him in lane, punish his Q cooldown when he uses it to clear the wave and try to keep track of the enemy jungler. You win this lane and heavily outscale so unless you die to ganks this should be free. I take First Strike in this matchup normally, but you may need Phase Rush if they have very threating support and jungle.”
0
ShokLoL says “Galio is a super free matchup and you should have an easy time pushing him in. Just be careful of getting ganked if you use all your Ws, other than that he has no threat onto you at any point of the game.”
0
Soft Headpats says “> Galio isn't too threatening in a 1v1, especially since you can cancel his [[Justice Punch]] (E) with its noticeable windup.
> Punish the windows when his E is on CD since he has no real way of getting onto you alone without it. If he ever manages to get into taunt range without using his E, you're often better off absorbing the incoming damage with [color=#16c5bc]WW[/color] first rather than [color=#8E44AD]EQ[/color]ing.
> He becomes more dangerous in 2v2s and once he hits 6, since he can quickly respond to skirmishes around the map with his ult and play off of his team. Try to push the wave to keep him in lane or punish his roams.
> You'll likely want a %pen item and/or [[Liandry's Torment]] early since Galio tends to rush MR. He'll usually too tanky for you to deal with on your own which can be annoying.

ShokLoL says “Galio is pretty weak in the 1v1 but he has great skirmishing potential. Try and keep him pushed in while avoiding jungle ganks. You outscale him heavily so if you can deny him roam opportunities and don't die to a gank it should be a free win.”

ShokLoL says “Galio isn't very strong 1v1 but he's quite good in early skirmishes, so try avoid any 2v2s for the most part and play for an isolated lane. Look to punish his Q CD by playing aggro when it's down. Post 6 you want to make sure you push in the wave to make it more difficult to roam.”

vSomnia says “Can be a hard matchup. His shields make it hard to trade, don't get hit by his Q's. When he messes up with W or E you can look to make a trade.

MasaruYoni says “If you are against a Galio try to focus on farm and dodging his q, cause if you try to fight him he will taunt you and after he will make his full combo making you lost more than half hp, unfortunately Galio actually is very strong especially against melee champions”

Kikife says “Most Galio players will build partial tank, so my threat analysis is based off of that. If you come into a Galio that is full AP electrocute baus combo, then you want to avoid a confrontation and refer to my Annie threat. Otherwise, you can poke him down with W and Q, whilst securing picks off lane as his escape is too good. When he R's to a lane, look for a pick on an opposite lane or if applicable counter-gank as he will pick up too many kills off mid.”

Axsanea says “[EN]
Naturally he is gonna counter you,
specially if he takes aftershock, bone plating, and then he rush grievous wounds into ignite, you won't be able to fight really, look always for burning out his Bone plating in case you want to fight, and use your "E" to disengage, and engage back with the second cast, so you have higher chances of dodging his "W", if he lets himself to be "poke" and you are healthy enough you can look for all-ins, but generally play better for wave, and look for roam with his "R". In skirmish is highly possible you are gonna win against.
[ES]
Naturalmente él te contrarresta.
Especialmente si lleva replica, revestimiento de huesos y luego va por ignite y heridas graves, no podrás pelear realmente, busca siempre quemar el revestimiento de huesos con tu "Q" en caso de que quieras pelear, y usa tu "E" para alejarte y volver a atacar con el segundo lanzamiento, asi tienes mayores posibilidades de esquivar su "W", si él se deja "pokear" y estás lo suficientemente sano puedes buscar all-ins, pero en general juega mejor para la oleada y busca roamear con su "R". En una escaramuza es muy posible que ganes.”

gaarrett says “Statistically Sylas's worst matchup for several patches now. Worth banning. You do not kill him ever without tower shots or your jungler. Poke back with Q if he shoots his tornadoes at you, E away from his taunt. If you roam keep in mind that Galio will probably just ult whoever you're trying to kill. [4/5] ultimate, great for showing up fashionably late to teamfights. ”

The Milelator says “Even matchup. If you can time your Q's to stun him before he hits his E on you, you win the trades. His CC is annoying and he will try to roam whenever his R is up, try to either follow and help your team or destroy turrets and get inhib. Despite him doing max health damage, he shouldn't be able to all in you. Don't all in HIM, unless you 100% kill him. You will always have better push. ”

WarwicksSimp says “WIP
not enough info on this but this can go eitherway at times due to his strong skirmishing and roaming. Laning can be difficult too if you mistime anything. He is killable however and hard for him to run from you.
He can roam a lot more often and has more mid game power as of 13.20 so he's on Major threat now, it was enough to tip the scale. BUT this doesn't affect laning phase, if he never roams the lane should be relatively fine for you.”

Anth0ny_Azir says “Never had much issue with Galio as long as you keep your distance. Very rare matchup even so just watch his movement, because most Galio's make it very obvious when you're getting ganked. Other than that just be careful of his Q damage, it's more than you think.”

Lightning_Ranger221100 says “Galio is fairly hard to counter, especially since he has free magic resist and great roaming potential. The only real reason you would win against him is that his lack of range allows you to play safe and harass him like it was a preschool bully session. Just keep watch of the big guy and you could probably keep up with him just fine.”

tangerrine says “While he is tanky and has his magic shield W passive, your W kinda counters a lot of his kit. If you see him dash in, you can ult. If you see him charge his W, use yours to run. If you see his Q, try and W closer and engage OR W to the side and escape the big hitbox behind you. Make sure you keep track of his ult and places where he could use it and it will be smooth sailing.”

Atemporal says “Costumava ser um confronto que eu temia, e sempre perdia, mas indo Conqueror - Presence of Mind - Legend: Tenacity (Legend: Alacrity se o time inimigo tiver CC baixo além de Galio) - Last Stand com Sudden Impact e Ravenous Hunter
secundário Eu venci consistentemente os jogadores do Galio agora. Galio sempre pressiona no início do jogo devido ao seu passivo, pense em como você faz o Q no início, se o seu Q atingir os lacaios conjuradores, você provavelmente perderá o ouro deles porque Galio
empurra você tão rapidamente. Use Q apenas para afinar a onda e configurá-la para o último golpe sob a torre. Não conteste seu empurrão, não é possível no início. Negociar cedo também é inútil porque seu escudo W e redução de dano bloquearão a maior parte do
seu dano, e você sofrerá muito dano do combo de Galio + seus lacaios enquanto estiver em cc. Se Galio for descuidado e for para uma negociação agressiva, mesmo se você for atingido e fragmentado, seus cooldowns são bastante longos, então você terá muito tempo
para bater nele com automóveis e ir para um comércio de conquistador prolongado. Tenha cuidado ao usar E para escapar quando Galio for para a provocação em você, se ele bater em você depois de usar E, a provocação fará você pular de volta para ele e você terá muitos problemas.
Concentre-se em pegar o máximo de fazenda possível no início do jogo, você o demolirá depois de ter 2 itens com o Conqueror. Tente evitar teamfighting contra Galio, pois seu R, W e E tornam quase impossível fazer seu trabalho. Fique na faixa lateral,
se o time inimigo começar uma luta, você pode entrar por um flanco e entrar depois que Galio tiver usado suas habilidades.”

Mvrshy says “[MID] contrary to most mages, cassiopeia shreds galio as she is an efficient antitank dps source, if he misses he only engage (very linear) you all in him and run him down forcing death or flash. only reason he isnt 1 is because of his buckets of cc setup for junglers”

J.A.K.I.E. says “You're both meant to counter All in characters. He has reliable stuns however so if he's smart he'll wait for you to drain then stun you. You can try to out-poke him but I have doubts on it being effective since he also has a form of poke.”

SkyBanana says “A utility tank vs. A utility mage. Normally if Galio is a tank he will be harder to deal with... Issue is he build full AP Glass Cannon so you can poke him down in lane and wither his shield down for all ins. Just remember: R roams for Galio is his thing and if there is lockdown for him, CC wombo combo will happen. Just do your best to stay out of the way and then look for a massive Encore to hit. This can go either way in all honesty so all you need to do is play the game accordingly and look for ways to make plays that opens up to what he is weak to.”

NegativePhoenix says “He's an anti-mage so he's got a bit more resistance to you than you'd like. Just be careful going in to poke him with Empowered auto since he'll most likely try to E in and hard trade you for it. Your only real best bet is to just try to Q poke him and only auto him if his engage is down. Ult him if he tries to ult away and you can reach him.”

AkiraHopeXDDDD says “Galio is a easy mid match up, You'll win all in's he does.
The only thing that will cuck you is the tankiness late game and the fact that he can taunt you and prevent you from killing the ADC.

Body Those Fools says “You pretty much scale for free in this matchup. You can't really kill him early unless he messes up and vice-versa. Push him in so he can't roam; either match his roams if your wave is fine or ping your team away and focus on getting tower plates.”

RoseOfInnistrad says “A good Galio will zone your team from following up on your engages, and because Rell functionally does no damage on her own, it's near impossible to find good fights in lane unless their ADC mispositions quite hard. His roaming and teamfighting later on are also pretty hard to deal with if you try to engage, but you succeed in peeling against Galio so go Locket and adjust.”

Edex_StarsUpYourASol says “Early Game:
Galio is difficult to low elo, easy to high elo. Predict his dashes and taunts and continuously punish him. Galio's ults are shorter than you think so try to roam while he clears the pushed up wave.
Mid/Late Game:
Galio becomes even less of an issue to you as you can ult him away along with several other frontliners in order to peel the backline while doing massive damage. ”

KayyeN says “The definition of an unplayable matchup. It's like he was created to counter Katarina. Constant max-health% poke from his Q, no chance of winning any engages because of his W into E.

Only thing you really lose hard to is his ability to gank.

Later the game goes he becomes too tanky to kill and an insane good frontline for the enemy team making your life hell mid-late game.”

Azurio says “If he goes ap, E out and take distances, don't let him taunt you. you can burst him with eclipse ignite.

Do not be afraid of flashing away from his spells. Better that than dead.”

donidaking says “DEMACIA STONE STATUE
Don t stay in his Q even if it hits you ,if he charges w when you charge E it s the same distance so he releases his W and cancels your E.
His ult is really annoying in a teamfight as he gives those in it magic shields.
Besides being careful when trading it s not unplayable watch out for jgle ganks since his kit allows him to keep you stunned for a while,dodge E with your W if it s gonna hit.
If he goes aftershock you don t win any trades if it s up.”
0
Bertsicle says “If he's good you wont kill him, he can just out push you and roam first, try to keep him low health by trading a lot early so his roams are awkward and avoid his AOE auto passive on minions. He really gets a lot of free damage off when you melee farm a minion and he just passive autos near you. If you can E him AFTER he's wasted his Q an passive on a wave the trade will be much better. It's all about waiting for key abilities to go on CD so you have more favorable trades.”

KyogoEntity says “With lethal tempo in a 1v1 scenario it should be impossible to lose vs Galio but his danger comes in his roaming potential post 6 and his gank set-up with his hard to miss CC.

Dodge his Q’s with your W and look to trade after as that’s literally all of his damage. Try to overheat before his W goes off so if he stays he’s getting wacked by overheat auto’s.
When playing vs Galio I will generally take Conqueror and go for Riftmaker instead of the normal Comet or Electrocute, as this is gonna do more damage to Galio and diversify your damage profile a bit.

ThePieBeam says “Very painful to fight into because of his shield and the dash-fuck combo but it's not too bad if you know his range. You can predict the dash most of the time with experience and Q him out of it. You can also wall him off and away from being able to taunt you. Conveniently your range is basically just outside of his dash range so it's just a matter of keeping a close eye on his pressure. Also his wind ability is annoying but it's really easy to avoid taking big damage from it so it's really not much of a factor. ”

Callmebee says “We're supposed to be on the same side here, Galio! You're not going to be able to kill him in lane normally as he is too tanky and has a magic sheild, but you can definitely try!

TcKatfish says “[Press The Attack Runes / Long Sword and Refillable Pots start.] To beat Galio you need to harass him while he goes for minions and try to stay healthy before level 3. Play aggressive with Q and be sure to grapple in ONCE you see him in the beginning sequence of his E. (Galio E is the charge back and knock up) WIthout Galio's E or W up he can be ran down for free. Post 6 just perma-shove waves to and threaten roams to deny him any pressure to use his R.”

lonestar1870 says “Push in early, it's easy to freeze against him. Focus on farming early, but also poke whenever possible. Be careful freezing if his ult is up since it's better for him to sack a wave and get his team ahead.
Galio is extremely annoying since he is hard to kill and has a lot of utility, but you should never die to him and should be able to impact the map earlier than him with perma prio.
You can play around jungler early. You can solo kill Galio ignite, but you should be able to get prio whenever you want and able to create early advantages with team
I like to play this lane to scale since he is hard to kill, but you do win the laning. When I say scale, you just play for a large CS advantage, getting plates, getting to skirmishes first, and punishing him if he decides to roam.
Hard to kill once he gets merc treads. Keep autoing/qing to stop his shield from coming up.
You get taunted if you E while he is channeling his taunt (if ur inside). Flash then E as needed
You should never die in this lane. If you do you're doing something wrong, make sure not to die to ganks since he has decent setup”

WayOfTheTempesst says “Galio doesn't do too bad into Yasuo.
He has a lot of CC, and combined with aftershock, he can actually chunk you pretty hard with his combo.
Since he has so much cc his gank setup is pretty strong.
Bait out his W and go in when its down or else he will hit his whole combo on you.
Go Cleanse if their jungler has CC, too (Ex: Fiddle, Elise)”

WayOfTheTempesst says “This lane is very boring. Galio can never kill you unless he has help. His damage is just too low.
The annoying part about this lane is his insane gank setup, so be very careful if you overextend and do
your best to play around vision. Ping mia when he decides to roam after pushing you under tower. You can
cancel his W with your E if you time it correctly.”

Katawina52 says “(always go Conqueror vs Galio and build sunderer [into ap] or bork [if ad path] first) If he E's in and you're healthy at (mostly) all levels you can all him after he procs aftershock (you should have conq in this matchup). Being healthy when fighting is key! If you are both at equal health you will most likely lose the trade. If you can dodge his E with yours, go in after and you shouldn't lose (mostly killable pre first back). Lane gets EXTREME hard to kill once he has some component item and some levels, but you should still be able to kill it depending on his spell usage. Galio can set up ganks very well so keep an eye on the enemy jungler and how he is pathing. Follow his ult roam and try to move already when he is going to move so you're there way earlier. Mercs good vs Galio if they have more CCs.”

Drewmatth Taliyah says “MELEE = PUSH EARLY (LEVELS 1-2) - CARE FOR GANKS! (SPAM Q'S TILL 50-60% MANA).
Corrupting due to his Q poke and because it's practically impossible to nuke him down in a single burst. We need all the sustain we can get.
Play with cleanse if the setup with their jungler is too strong (Heca/Galio for example). Galio provides lots of CC but it is fairly predictable. I would play with Ignite but would stay safe on lane and focus more on ganks. Beware! Everytime you gank there might be a Galio ult popping up on your target location (their ADC most of the times), so every time you roam consider it that it will be a 3v3 (unless you finish the job quickly).
Play according to that fact.”

xblademojo says “Unkillable Brick who can outroam you and offers so much CC for the team, only way you could try to trade him is with Conqeuror but Imo play efficient for scaling but still your team has a hard time against him. Try to match his roams with TP if needed.”

Polarshift says “Not too much of a threat, but be careful of his taunt, because its an excellent tool to set up a gank. Galio is very good at setting up ganks. It's a melee champion and you can dodge all of his abilities. Later in the game he is not able to match your sidelaning potential. Learn important ability cooldowns through an external website and fight enemies when their abilities are on cooldown.”

Avucado says “Galio is very hard to kill, can potentially outtrade you and can roam just as well as you can. Start E lvl 1, free way to do half his health early. After that you don't want to E him to trade because he will CC lock you and do over half your health. He can keep you shoved into tower and match your roams easily. Big hitbox makes hooking him easy which makes ganks very easy. If he's running aftershock then it'll be nearly impossible to solokill him. ”

LunarVortex says “Your spellshield counters his entire kit pretty hard. He is also an easy Q target because of how telegraphed his dash is. He will try to push you in and roam.

Eriosunx says “Galio is a very common matchup for Katarina, the best option is going CONQUEROR+BOTH RESOLVE/DOMINATION.
Rushing BOTRK is the best option, but going NASHOR'S WORKS AS WELL.
You will find 3 types of Galio players.
The ones going basic Galio (AFTERSHOCK-TP) pretty easy to fight, just go when he has his keystone and boneplating down.
The other ones going for BURST DAMAGE (DH/ELEC+IGNITE) even easier to face but you must be carefull to take the one on one when you are full hp!
And last the PHASERUSH GALIO, I still havent figured out how to play into that, he engages on you and runs out with PHASERUSH and you have no time to counter-trade.
Just dont trade with him and focus on csing and side-map plays”

Fuzzmonkey says “This match up is mainly based on reactions but LeBlanc does still struggle against Galio because he is an anti-mage champion. If Galio can taunt Leblanc when she W's in, he will win the trades. If Galio can't do this, you should be able to get a free trade onto him if you dodge his charge.”

Urpog says “Midlane: Galio's recently been popping off due to the predator buff making predator insane, so he's pretty hard to manage right now. If the Galio you're laning against has Predator then you need to play to constantly poke him down or instantly shove your waves out while being cautious about where the enemy jungle is, he has an insane amount of roaming potential and jungle set up but you should live majority of the time by buffering his stuns backwards towards your tower, if they're the aftershock variant then this matchup is completely freelo and he shouldn't ever be allowed to walk up to the wave, use your E when he knocks you up into him and you'll flip him and then he'll lack the sustained damage to deal with you, especially if you have cull, ignite is recommended in this matchup.
Support: Galio's engage and taunt can be a little annoying when you're focused on the enemy ADC; when you're against Galio support their goal is essentially rush into boots so they can start making plays around the map than the lane so you need to play reactionary rather than engage, as soon as galio uses his E (Dash) you need to E flash onto the enemy ADC, he's lost his window to peel his ADC efficiently and you should be able to get a kill, you can then roam to attempt to match his roaming or play the lane out to put the enemy ADC behind.”

All he really needs to do is survive lane phase to impact sides/team fights.
Syndra still does very well into this match up since you have the anti-engage with E, but you'll need to play team fights better.
If you over commit, you'll basically die to a short cast taunt into knock up combo for 900 damage with one D ring. ”

Kords says “His set up for ganks are really good. His early game dmg is really good and can chunk a lot of hp he if he lands a knock up-taunt. You can prevent this by staying further back and/or dodging his E, do so and you will be fine. He can also follow your roams really well, as he has nice waveclear. His teamfights are more oriented towards tanking damage for his team, you don’t need to focus him in later fights, but rather watch out for his CC. He falls slowly back mid-late game”

Yasukeh says “Galio is definitely much harder after his recent changes. he can very easily 100-0 you and overall outtrade you from early on. If you go on him early when he has all cooldowns up, he will win the trade. Wait for him to use his Q to farm or harrass and then jump on him. When you are going out from a trade, his charge is much faster than your spin now, so you have to spin much earlier in the animation to dodge it. ”

Dr Eggmund says “Gosh Galio is annoying, a lot of CC in his kit and damage output can mean bye bye to Vladimir, however he is a melee champion so poke with Q as much as possible in lane and if he doesn't build any kind of magic resist early PUNISH HIM. Build Protobelt and get a magic penetration item like Void Staff or Liandry's to burst through this man. See how the lane play's out experience with a few Q's and E's to see if you can all in him later.”

Ambitieux says “In this lane It's mostly a pretty pokey out lane. You have more advantages early due to his high mana usage but he will ALWAYS out damage you in pokes. Use your autos to your advantage and try to push and look for roams. He wont take much damage but you have better pick potential. Save ur charm 100% in this lane for when he dashes towards you. use it and run away. Or to bait and setup ganks. He is pretty easy to gank with you being able to interrupt his dash. Make sure to ping MIA and ward rivers”

iZianni says “Galio has increased MR along with hp itemization which makes it impossible to one shot him.
You do have range advantage early but unfortunately Galio Q will instantly clear waves while giving him roam opportunities.
There's not really much to do in this match up unless you have jg priority, because both of you clear waves pretty easily.
The issue is Galio will 100% kill you if you misposition, whereas it's impossible to kill him without jungle or incessant trading that puts you in danger. ”

kindo says “Galio is super easy for Kindred, especially in the 1v1. You Can react to Q his E since it has startup, but it still guarantees his taunt. Unfortunately, this is why the matchup is a bit rough sometimes. You're low range - especially pre 4-mark so getting taunted means the enemy jungler can just gank you freely.
The matchup in lane overall is free, he'll just spam Qs from range and wait for jungle to gank. He'll give up waves to R to his jungle or sidelanes, and Kindred struggles to follow these plays (given 325 base MS). He can get a lead that way, but the lane will never snowball to where you can't still play the 1v1.
Don't stand in his Qs as they culminate in the lane, and dodge his E damage/knockup with your Q. Build tenacity for his taunt, and try your best to save your ult for when his is down. If he ults on top of your ult, it will be rough.”

Sylvan Lore says “Galio is quite strong against Orianna, but that doesn't mean you can't beat him. Early levels you want to do your best to match his push by landing your Q on as many minions as possible. Even your strongest push will be outmatched by his Q and passive, but at least then you are not completely shoved in. Do your best to track the enemy jungler at all times. If you do not know where they are, do not overextend at all. His gank engage is amazing and any backup will change his large chunk on you into an easy kill. You will be more useful than him if you can take it late but that is easier said than done.”

Saddest says “In my experience, Galio is not as hard as most people make it out to be. Most Galio picks are by people who are trying to counter you, not mains. As a result, they do not know how properly pilot him and utilize his kit to abuse you as much as you could be abused. The only thought they have is 'hurr durr magic shield = counter durr." If you know you're facing one of these, punish them as much as you can; capitalize on every mistake they make, as there will be plenty. Long sword start is viable in this matchup, even if you're not looking to build into AD; try to cheese a kill level 2 or 3. The thing you need to avoid is his knock up; the taunt you can take. However, most Galios have the brain capacity to understand that you need to be taunted first before you can be hit by the knock up, so keep that in mind. His Q is easy to avoid unless you are cc'ed. Now, a good Galio will render you useless. Even if you attempt a quick trade, you will be instantly taunted, knocked up, Q'ed, autoed with his passive and 75% of your HP will be gone. If he has ignite, it's even more impossible to do anything. Roaming is recommended, though he can follow you with his R post 6. The point is, hope that the enemy Galio is not a main. ”

TheEnglishman says “This matchup boils down to this. His ult can follow you but is lower range which is exploitable.

ahspaghetti says “always go conq against galio, try to bait out his aftershock(after ccing someone, gain bonus armour and Mr) then go all in. be ware of enemy jungle ganks as galio can setup really good ganks. try to follow up galio ult side lane ganks by moving way earlier so you will always be there for your team. you should probably run mercs if their team has a lot of cc. if he tries to e to escape, you can try to jump in front of him to block his escape. ad build is preferable”

peytonqt says “[MEDIUM/HARD] [PR/Conqueror] [Tear] As Galio is a tank, he basically just beats you instantly. His engage is super fast and if you get hit he'll just stun you and easily outtrade you. Look to poke him and stack your tear in lane. Do your best to get vision in the river so that when he does eventually roam you can at least ping it. When he does roam push in his wave and take plates and the tower. ”

XD001 says “One of Ekko's counterpicks, there is little counterplay. If Galio has a brain he will just save his taunt for when you go on him. Dodge his Q poke as best as possible in lane. His E + W + Q + P-AA combo can chunk you for about half your HP at all stages of the game. In mid-late game teamfights it is really hard to assassinate anyone as Galio give everyone in a certain distance a giant magic shield + enemy knockup. If you go on the high priority squishies, odds are he will just peel them with his taunt and you will get CC chained. Look for fights when Galio has no R and you can catch an enemy squishy out. The one good thing about this matchup is that you will basically never get solo-killed by him, but that's where it stops.
Even scaling
Take Conq if lots of tanks, or electrocute + precision otherwise.”
0
Reppy says “If you do not kill him level 2-3, you will not kill him for the rest of the game solo. He is a magic damage tank monster that is impossible for Katarina to kill without losing any short trade (especially with Aftershock). For this matchup, you want to rush AD (bilgewater cutlass) and try to punish his mistakes.”
0
Luciiid says “Very easy level 1,2, & 3. Easy trades unless you get ganked, until he backs. After he backs and gets fat he is impossible to kill. If you're looking to kill him after he gets tanky then take conq. Otherwise take electrocute and look to roam.”

elnino9 says “Close to an unplayable lane but managable. He has no serious kill pressure unless you mess up somewhere, other than that you both just sit back and farm. If he gets a gank, immediately try to shunpo away. Ganks are you worst enemy in this matchup because Galio is a great setup for a gank with his taunt. He has a free magic shield, don't hard poke him. Focus on farming and being in a safe distance. You CAN kill him early on if he takes too much minion aggro because galio mains get cocky and play very aggressive against a Katarina. Fight him with Q dagger setup on minion, then EW, E out. Do this when he just used taunt or just used his passive auto attack so he doesn't trade back for a lot.”
0
Raizins says “Galio is one of the harder lane matchups for Alistar, and also in Mid-lane. He has multiple ways of stopping your combo, with a quick W taunt to interrupt you, or his E which can make you whiff your W+Q and then you get knocked up.
Make sure you keep track of his ultimate as well, as if you over-commit to a fight and he counter-engages with Ulti you might have just put yourself in a no-win situation.”

GeDBo says “Galio is a specific match up that is neither hard nor easy. You both can punish each other severely if one of you does a mistake and the opponent manages to notice the mistake and react quickly. The reason I am saying this is because Azir is very dependent on his soldier (w)'s positioning. Galio can get out of their range and if he manages to get close to you, you will loose the trade. Poking him won't work either since he is somewhat counter to mages. Maybe considering AD Azir would be a good idea? Nah, I'm joking. Please don't do that. Galio is very dependent on short trades, kills and assists, since farming against a ranged champion will be hard. All you have to do is pick some sustain runes - Lethal Tempo or Conqueror. I specifically would go for Conqueror since I will surely need that stacking adaptive damage and little bit of healing since he won't be able to burst me. Always keep a spare soldier so whenever he jumps on you (trust me he eventually will) this way you will have an escape route. Buy vision and ask jungler for help if necessary.”

SoraSan says “Galio é um Lutador AP, dificilmente ele vai querer ficar na sua lane após o 6 dele. Sempre que ele desaparecer use seus pings para uma possivel ameaça da ultimate dele.
Na rota você pode abusar do poke e tente abrir vantagem no farm.
Cuidado com as investidas dele, ele raramente vai pra cima de você a menos que você esteja muito atrás dele ou que vá ter gank do inimigo na sua lane. Nas team fights cuidado com o Galio, tanto com sua ultimate que dará um knock up em área, quanto com o W e E dele.
Recomendo vir de Eletrocutar para pokea-lo na lane.
Vá Ritmo Fatal caso queira focar apenas no farm e escalar melhor para team fights.”

Hiimkata says “(always go Conqueror vs Galio) If he E's in and you're healthy at (mostly) all levels you can all him after he procs aftershock (you should have conq in this matchup). Being healthy when fighting is key! If you are both at equal health you will most likely lose the trade. If you can dodge his E with yours, go in after and you shouldn't lose (mostly killable pre first back). Lane gets EXTREME hard to kill once he has some component item and some levels, but you should still be able to kill it depending on his spell usage. Galio can set up ganks very well so keep an eye on the enemy jungler and how he is pathing. Follow his ult roam and try to move already when he is going to move so you're there way earlier. Mercs good vs Galio if they have more CCs”

mrsuits says “When facing Galio, keep in mind his tankiness and crowd control capabilities. Here are some strategies to deal with him effectively:
Galio's passive, Colossal Smash, empowers his next basic attack after using an ability, dealing bonus damage based on his magic resistance. Be cautious of his empowered auto-attacks, especially in the early game.
Galio's Q ability, Winds of War, is his main poke tool. Stay behind minions to minimize the damage taken from it. Avoid grouping up with your team in a straight line, as it makes it easier for Galio to hit multiple targets with his Q.
Be mindful of Galio's W ability, Shield of Durand, which is his primary defensive tool. When he starts channeling it, refrain from using crowd control on him, as it reduces the channel duration and grants him damage reduction. Instead, try to disengage or focus on other targets until the shield expires.
Galio's E ability, Justice Punch, is a long-range dash that allows him to engage or escape. Keep an eye on his positioning and be prepared to dodge his dash. If he uses it to engage, try to sidestep it or use mobility spells to create distance.
Galio's ultimate, Hero's Entrance, can turn the tides of team fights. It allows him to dash to an ally's location and taunt nearby enemies. Pay attention to the minimap and communicate with your team when Galio is missing, as he may be looking for a game-changing ultimate in another lane.
Galio is relatively mana-hungry in the early game. Consider picking a champion that can push the wave and force him to use his abilities to farm, putting him at risk of running out of mana.
Building magic penetration items can be effective against Galio, as he tends to stack magic resistance. Look to itemize accordingly to maximize your damage output.
Coordinate ganks with your jungler to apply pressure on Galio in the laning phase. While he is durable, his mobility is limited, making him susceptible to well-executed ganks.
Galio is a strong team fighter and excels in skirmishes. Try to avoid prolonged engagements and focus on objective control and map rotations to minimize his impact.
Note: Be cautious of Galio's empowered auto-attacks from his passive. Stay behind minions to reduce damage from his Q. Avoid using crowd control on Galio during his W. Dodge his E dash and be aware of his global ultimate. Consider champions that can push the wave and force him to use mana. Build magic penetration items against his magic resistance. Coordinate ganks to pressure him. Focus on objective control and map rotations to minimize his impact in team fights.”

BloxNaderYT says “In the early game Galio has almost full control of the lane and can perma shove waves under Senna's tower. This allows him to have good reset timing, allow him to roam, and crash waves when minion hp values are unfavourable for Senna.

wildersovereign says “One of Morgana's best matchups, which is good considering how oppressive Galio can be towards many mages and mid lane in general. Early, you basically durdle against each other. Make sure you're focusing more on dodging his Q than getting poke yourself since his poke is way more impactful early than yours is. Once you rack up a few levels, though, you really start to feel the sharp difference in power between you. Your Black Shield negates every attempt he'll make to do anything against you, and you can respond with a powerful Q+W combo that'll shred him pretty quickly. You can Q him during his relatively slow E animation, which makes his engage really weak against you. Outside of mid lane, you both want to push the wave and roam. This is something a good Galio will attempt to accomplish early. If he fails to get the ball rolling early, though, your waveclear is superior to his, so you'll be roaming faster and getting fed faster than he could ever dream of.”
0
SkyBanana says “Galio's Ultimate can shut down your engagement since his ult gives his allies a magic damage shield. This is an incredible power few people have to realize. Not to mention you won't do damage to him since his W passive is obnoxious so you have to wear him down.”

invalidd says “Pretty easy, your kit allows you to easily outplay his, you can hook him out of the dash and taunt, your regen makes his Q poke worthless, you
can also force him to dash into your E which allows for an easy hook, and you're an AD champ so his ult won't be efficient against your damage, E
lvl1 is strong. Fairly easy to setup ganks on.”

Aikairi says “Build AD and get 3 points into E. Make sure you dodge his dash, and try to fight him early since he'll be a bit harder to kill during mid to late game. If he tries to taunt you and you're level 5 (you should have 3 points in E by then), then you should be able to shunpo out of it unless he fully charged it. if he didn't fully charge it, you can just sidestep his dash.
Don't roam too much as well since he can follow you with his ulti and turn the whole fight around.”

SkellyBirb says “While Galio is an anti-mage and you are AD, he can build a Seeker's and make you do a lot less damage. He also has 2 forms of CC, so shielding might not always be enough. Use your range advantage and run back getting ready to kite if you see him start his dash.”

Big Shawn says “Galio is a good champ versus Mages and other classes which base on Ability Power. Ekko can do fine against Galio, but he will be able to apply more pressure towards you as he gains the Magic Resist Shield through the passive of his W-Ability, which makes him slightly tankier. Therefore it is crucial that you poke him with your Q-Ability, and importantly bait his taunt. You never know where his jungler might be. Therefore it would be wise to ask your jungler to gank.”

Scyrine says “hard matchup but still winnable. Galio's usually engage with their dash. Don't waste your abilities trying to trade him, wait for his engage and E back.

Katfire says “Galio is quite a hard match up. Personally I feel this match up forces you to go for Conqueror, with BoRK rush. It is the only way to deal with him effectively. You should never stay in his Q after he uses it. Dodge his E. If he has aftershock he becomes nearly undamageable after he uses W due to the damage mitigation his W gives him paired with the defensive stat boost from procing aftershock. Don't R if his W or E are still up. When he is level 6 he can ult allies and offer them his magic shield, which will block a lot of your ability damage. Usually you would want to wait this shield out, but if you are caught in the middle of it try your best to E out of it or the knock up might put you in danger. He can use R to roam to other lanes so if he leaves lane try to keep track of where he is going and warn your teammates.”

WolfRider01 says “His CC is very annoying, and he can set up for ganks very easily. You can win this matchup if you can bait out his CC.

Daeydark says “Trade with him when his passive is down. I'd highly recommend going Phase Rush in this matchup because it's a lot easier to dodge his skills after you do a standard combo. Harass him early on; you have very high kill potential level 2 in this matchup.”
0
TheCatOfCheshire says “He got great dmg, and even if you hit all your spells, you don't have enough mana to kill him, he got great roaming and a good wave clear. But it's a melee so poke him with AA in early, you can even buy a doran blade as first item for that.”

Haywyre says “You want to really play this lane safely. Actively punish him with q's to break his passive barrier. You always wanna fight him with your jg. Dodge his CC with your shunpo.”

SkellyBirb says “Galio is an anti-mage, but he'll struggle to keep up with your roaming, poke, and burst. Just be careful of his dash, as the combo that follows can deal a lot of damage.”
0
Frixen says “Nothing you can do in lane against him, but he can't do much against you either if you keep safe distance and auto-space well. You can try poking him, but he is the ultimate anti-mage so I doubt that'd work out too well as he is often fairly tanky. Get Cleanse and he will never be able to do anything against you. Out of the lane you have much more pressure and splitpush opportunity.”

Shazzaam says “Cull start with Future's Market. Just dodge his E since he deals a lot of damage with his E-W-Q-Passive AA.”
0
Faithyatta says “Slightly in Galio's favor, by the nature that he is an anti-magic tank.
He does a lot of damage to you at most stages of the game, and he out-roams you easily. Try to force trades with him early with your AAs & Q Es, and try to keep him stuck in your miasma any time he tries to walk up to you.”
0
Reason97 says “Galio doesn't seem all that intimidating in a 1v1 because, for the most part, he isn't, but he's very tanky, making him hard to burst in turn. Focus more on keeping him low and scared than trying to kill him, and try to be ready to wall block him or run if you see him winding up for his charge engage. you beat him in range, but if he CAN get into your face, he has the potential to chunk you for decent damage. At 6, your all in is better than his, but when laning phase is over, always keep in mind he can be at any of his teammates sides at ANY point, never assume you and an enemy are caught out in a 1v1 with eachother, cause he'll be there to turn the fight before you know it.”

Shock_101 says “Fight him early, like level 1 - 3. He only gets tanky when he gets his w (which usually they get at level 3), and when he gets items. His q does big dmg early game though, so be careful of that.”

xXkillercrackXx says “Tanky, has tons of waveclear, has CC, and can match your roams while giving a team mate damage reduction. Pretty hard match up. Farm the best you can and try to net your ADC some kills early on so they can hopefully deal with galio later.”
0
Yuki H. says “Gets fairly tanky late, but once again his dueling potential isn't as great against any AD champs due to his magic damage shield. From early on, try to stay with the caster minions to force his Q out to shove the wave into you. Your passive and Q allows for very easy last hits under tower from level 1. Make sure to poke him a good amount with abilities, and possibly all in him at level 5 or 6 (before he gets too tanky). If he takes aftershock, make sure to dodge his knock up and taunt.”

Veralion says “Aggravating. His Q poke hurts now and his punch is much faster and will catch you if you slack with your positioning for a fraction of a second. You can still move out of the way with your W up, but you’ve gotta be quick. Never let him taunt you. If he walks up and lands a taunt into a full combo, you’ll be chunked down to one third from full. If he punches and falls just short he will probably spam and land taunt, then his Q and passive will still do about a third of your life. Stay the hell away from him until 6 and just farm up under turret. You can’t poke him down through his passive shield, so just prioritize farm and wait for a gank. You can handle getting nicked by his Q here and there. Once you have your ult, you can kick his ass by baiting his punch and immuning his follow up taunt. Be mindful if you go for a roam that he doesn’t follow, ult the fight, and ruin your team. ”

ThatOneKatMain says “He can't really kill you in lane if you dodge his e with yours and just farm with q you will be fine but you can't really roam post 6 as he will just follow with his r and mess your whole roam up.

Keep your distance so he can't jump at you and taunt you.
Try to poke him down when he goes to melee hit CS, or combo him when he does that.
You can knock him low often with your combo but he's often hard to actually kill because of how tanky he is.
Ask your jungler to help kill him since he's fairly easy to kill with some help.”

His shield only blocks magic damage, good thing considering Zed does none (besides a little from Scorch and his passive), so ignore it. ”

only yasuo play says “He has really good damage and pressure levels 1, 2, and 3. Most Galios will push wave early to pressure you under your tower.

Ekko Rush B Guides says “Fighting Galio is utterly useless. He is WAY too tanky for you, because not only he has damage reduction, but also his AP Shield. Trading is a joke, because when you dash on him you will always swallow his whole combo once he hits you with his taunt. Not only that, but his ult is also a really good tool to counter your roams.”

KataFlix says “Galio is the biggest threat on Katarina, not only he builds to be tanky he can CC Katarina for a long duration, beware of his Taunt and knock up by dodging it with your E and try to poke him early game, on late game you will need a partner in order to kill him”

Gageowago says “(This is still a matchup that I am not too familiar with since he is not picked often, but there are a few tips I can give.) Try and keep your distance from him in lane, and don't waste too many spells on him because of his passive magic shield. If he steps up to you mirror his movements by backing up. If Galio manages to hit his knockup on you then you are about to lose a lot of health from his combo. After he chunks you back up immediately instead of going for a trade because his aftershock will absorb a lot of your combo. Try and keep away from minions to avoid Galio's poke damage. Another thing to remember is that Galio cannot flash taunt you anymore, so do not flash if he's channeling his taunt far away from you.”

Lil Tidepod says “Galio is really someone you can't kill until late game. His magic damage shield is pretty much a big screw you to any mage. The only advantage you have here is he has to get close to do any damage. You can kite him fairly easily. Be careful of his flash taunt, as it will screw you over for sure, and cause the trade to go in his favor. He might even be able to CC you long enough to kill you if he hits the taunt.”

serruh says “honestly since riot removed flash + w this champion is just very underwhelming. sure he can be annoying sometimes and tank a lot of your dmg with his reduction and potentially even out trade you early, but you can play around it 99% of the time and scale for free. much bigger issue when it comes to teamfights, maybe look to get banshee. also mercs help.”

BabyTwisty says “You can play pretty aggressive lvl 1 but back off a bit when he hits lvl 2. Don't roam a lot post 6 due to his ult but try to roam early.

0
Daedralus says “I put him on level 1 difficulty but do not underestimate his damage of course! If you consistently get hit by his E Q AA combo, he will get you eventually if he trades without you being able to life steal. This is an unlikely scenario however as you will surely be able to bite him after his dash, but it is ganks you must watch after as his initiation if on target is deadly. But considering that he doesnt even have an ultimate that can be used against you in all situations and that you can also prevent him from using it with E or R (dunno if you can follow him with Q but that would be dope) kinda limits his plays. He simply doesn`t do enough damage in a certain amount of time to kill you, thus difficulty 1.”

0
LightningDeceptigon says “He's tanky and has a decent amount of burst. Be careful of his engages with E and then his taunt. His kit gives him a magic damage shield, making it even harder to kill him.

Euphoric Toaster says “Really easy lane early on, you get to poke and deny him a lot and set him behind pretty far. After 6 you get a much bigger power spike because his Ult is a team reliant Ult. This matchup would be even easier if it weren't a couple of things. First if he goes Mercury Tread + Rod of Ages Or full tank, you will be unable to kill him ever and it will turn into just a farm lane. Secondly, if they have a dive jungler (like Jarvan IV) his ult can be deadly.”

CC Diana says “Galio is an interesting matchup. All of Galio's abilities scale with AP which makes it likely for him to build it instead of MR. Assuming he builds AP, you should be able to 1v1 him once you hit 6 since he won't have the health to survive your burst. Be aware that given the nature of Galio's abilities, he may go Abyssal Mask for a first item and it's at this point where you'll want to call your jungler for help. Make sure you take TP for this matchup because he can outroam you hard with his ult so you'll want to be able to follow up when appropriate.”

MadMaster523 says “Galio is just like every other tank out there. He's going to be a pain early game, but you'll eventually be able to split push him to death since he's probably going to be opting for a tank build and gnar loves shredding tanks.”
0
The Jhin Cena says “YOU MUST ALWAYS BAN THE GALIO! He is a highly played champion in Twisted Treeline, and unless you are lucky that he is trash, you will have a very difficult lane. He is super super tanky and yet can manage to kill you in seconds when he gets fed. You can hardly even farm passively because his Q will leave you behind your turret spam pinging for a gank. Not only that, but his ult can especially screw you over on this map. An example is if you are about to kill a squishy like Vayne with your E and Flash down, Galio can fly out of nowhere and by then you're dead. As a melee there is not much you can do when laning against a Galio and you should probably request to trade lanes.”

Fruxo says “He has CC and can do a ton of damage with his Adc if you are not careful, keep in mind that he has the ability to dash on to you in order to set up a stun, which can lead to your death or your supports death if you aren't careful enough.”
0
SmokeyEggs says “Tanky af. Trading with him is almost impossible especially with Aftershock. Push and roam, you'll scale better than him.”
0
Ethereal Ezio says “You probably can't kill Galio, but neither can he, without help. Be out of taunt range and save your W for it just in case. Farm up.”
0
xispy420 says “A lot of CC,a lot of poke thats litteraly hard to play against,if you get ganked,you're dead for sure,poke and pay attention to the map ”
0
vukashin.xyz says “His tankiness from aftershock and CC makes it hard to burst him
If you use W>E>Q to harras play passive after the combo since he can E and burst you
If he tries to combo you first use W to dodge his dash
He will roam”
0
AzureArmatt says “Galio can't do much damage to you unless you help him with that. Don't stay in his tornado for too long since it deals big damage once you spend enough time in it + don't let him hit you with his charge, if you manage to do this it should be easy match up for you since he's way to slow to catch up to you”

The Lost Drawing says “Muy facil, pero es algo asi como Dr. Mundo, 'farmea' muy bien y de manera segura con su 'Q' si va perdiendo”

javimc17 says “He can't do nothing against you. Win all trades starting with your E, hitting with your Q and healing with your W when your shield falls.”
0
Bestlover says “You cant even dmg him, he is way to tank.
Just farm ,push the wave and roam.
He cant deal with your pushing and roaming.”
0
thedonk says “Galio's kit makes it hard for Leblanc to find damage as well. Try to avoid his dash and taunt. When you W in, Galio might try to taunt you. He doesn't have big damage during laning phase if you dodge all of his abilites. Make sure to tell your team when Galio hits 6 as he can help his teammates.”

BigBoiMusty says “annoying indeed but penetration can make it dealable ( beg for jngl to help btw)”

Louiel says “Leblanc has issues fighting Galio avoid getting taunted on W in.”

kkiskk says “Get MAW first item and you'll be fine. Dodge his Q, it has decent scaling of both AP / HP. Watch out for his engage combo E->W->Q. Try to save your W after his W duration is off, his W gives dmg reduction. Get tiamat second item for lane pressure if his always gank your teammates.”
0
Jenkinsu says “If he hits you, you're probably dead. His CC chain will keep you locked and will leave you with no escape. Try to keep your distance as much as possible”
0
Tipurrs says “He's an anti- ap mage. He clears waves faster than you and his poke hurts a lot. He will try to push the lane and impact the map more. Don't fight him because he is tanky and just anti-AP”
0
apsonalol says “Galio ele é muito forte na rota e se te pegar no E provavelmente vai te matar, tem que tomar muito cuidado com ele, ainda mais quando tiver o W pronto para usar, como ele tem uma vasta quantidade de proteção contra magia , pokear não vai resultar em grande coisa, mas você pode usar clepto para acelerar sua build e começar a realmente dar dano nele, no mesmo caso do twisted fate, gankar ele vai ser o bastante para que ele não incomode as side lane.”

Serrioneleo says “Magic shield popping up every time you can't just beat him”
0
moutenn says “Galio is an easy kill. You outdamage him, and he synergices with MR not Armor. Ult when he E's, then just kill him.”
0
qasddsa says “Ignore him during laning phase, you won't be doing much against him. Run Fleet and max Q to shield his abilities. You can Q to stop his channel on his ultimate.”
0
Itsyaboyorchid says “Galio isn't much of a damage threat. Even in this new "burst Galio build" meta, he isn't a legitimate threat if you don't allow him to be. Your Q-E prevents any engage from him in the 1v1, or sets you up for a combination to deal heavy damage to him. if he builds tank Galio, you farm and have no kill pressure, if he builds burst he ints your lane to get you snowballed. I only included Galio as a threat because one of my colleagues mentioned him as a Syndra counter. I laughed.”
0
LCAU says “Honestly, why do people play such cancer champs... Start Dark Seal to utilize the pots. Ask for ganks and try to kill him before he gets fed. Go Void Staff if he goes magic resist.”
0
Andicus says “Galio can be fairly annoying with his tankiness and tons of poke damage. Just don't get caught by his taunt and try to avoid his Q as best as possible. Other than that you can poke normally. You want to fight him after he wastes his taunt. You can farm normally but again, be cautious of his E (dash) and W (taunt). Keep in mind he is great at setting up ganks so you will want to have your rivers warded and be on the lookout for ganks. If needed, keep your W up always.”

rimzaki says “Farm lane hes stupid he can not nuke against u but hes tanky dodge him E with ur sanguine pool”
0
Gambinos says “You counter Galio pretty well. You might have a bit of struggle as his tornado does alot of damage and he also have a taunt and airborne. Dodge all of those and you'll be able to kill him with your ult.”
0
Sozzoh says “Galio has built in MR, so you won't do much damage to him. Try not to get hit by his dash, and you should be good. Post-6, Galio is going to roam, and a lot quicker too. If Galio ults, you can stop it with your ult. Try and Shurima Shuffle him into your turret so you stop his ult, and most likely get a free kill off of it too.”
0
Katapullt says “Verry annoying opponent. Start Doran`s Shield and focus on CS. dodge his E with your E and be patient what he is doing.”
0
Witwickies says “Unless you will let him come close to you, it should be easy match-up. Be aware of possibility of W+Flash, so when he uses W without reason, be careful. Just poke him to death and make unable to even come to minions.”
0
undeadsoldiers says “Galio will try to poke you and farm with his Q. Try to stay away from your wave so he can't do both.
Stay out of his W range and poke from afar. Be wary of flash-taunts, though.
His E is telegraphed because he moves back before dashing forward, so you can put a bubble in his path.
You can also use your E to stop his ult channel.
While your full combo may not delete Galio since he's decently tanky, you can definitely put a dent in him.”
0
Doctor_Dr says “How to counter: Poke constantly. Never get to close otherwise you lose trade.”
0
MidoriyaOGado says “Raramente você vai ganhar do galio por ele ter o kit perfeito contra fizz, Tendo ele um pocke constante com seu Q e sua resistencia mágica baseada na passiva de seu W. Fica bem dificil do fizz jogar.
Procure outra lane para focar contra galio raramente você vai matar ele.
tente usar a janela do lv 3 para forçar o flash dele ou possivelmente matar ”
0
Itsyaboyorchid says “This kind of threat isn't noted because of his kill pressure, but because he can easily set up ganks for his JG and force you into a 2v1 situation. Other than that laning will be extremely slow. Focus on farming, make sure to poke with auto attacks whilst Galio walks up to farm.”
0
JuaniG17 says “Tanky but not a threat as long as he doesnt poke with his Q”
0
DaBigNut says “Don't get taunted and watch out for the q due to it's high damage output, ya can be easily ganked if he lanes against ya.”
0
DuhBrandon says “Probably a gift from god if you fight this as you are building an anti tank build just one warning though, his ult will be a problem once you start roaming because as you might know he can go back up any teammate.”
0
Bengineer says “R.I.P: His magic damage reduction with his Shield of Durand is insane, you will not even dent his health. If you run into him often, permaban him over Anivia and Karthus”
0
Snowyfreezer says “Hes decently tanky so you can't really kill him and has lots of CC”
0
Palme201 says “Start Long Sword and take longer trades without enemy minions. Since he got nerfed he´s not a big Problem anymore”
0
Fyiree says “Galio just isn't Strong, start W and then poke him out lvl 2.
Try not to lvl 6 all in him, as his AP shield will stop you from 1 shotting him”
0
Smol Jelly says “Galio's got the damage reduction and built in magic damage shield that makes lane rough for you. His dash is linear so you can catch him, but save your burst for when his damage reduction is on CD. Also, ping immediately when he leaves lane, as he has one of the strongest roaming potentials for a Mid Laner.”
0
ShokLoL says “Galio pre first base is very punishable, you want to try force trades her but be careful of using too much mana if he starts dshield. If you go too far up without cooldowns he can force a trade by Eing directly onto you so make sure to play around this. If you build a build lead pre first base you should be able to snowball. If you don't and he gets spectres cowl you won't be able to do much to him anymore, so at this point just play for 2v2s and 3v3s.”

4milKata says “"Tank" does have a lot of CC massive dmg, don't go for silly fights with him, only go in when you know you can survive his combo and then kill him.”

mitchellgamer12 says “not fun because of passive and his w stops your e. Also care that if he ult's you probably wont be able to 1shot the one he is ulting on”
0
Zeekar says “You cannot kill him unless he majorly misplays, but he is also not likely to kill you unless you majorly misplay. Regardless he IS a counter to you. ”
0
ShokLoL says “Galio is pretty easy if you know what you are doing but there are a couple things to be careful of. His Q poke can actually hurt, so you have to position to make sure he can't Q to last hit a creep and poke you at the same time (make him choose). Also make sure you are either out of range of his E, or dodging side to side so it's hard to hit. The worst case scenario is you get hit by E and it cancels your E in which case you'll lose the trade. Unless you make some big mistake early you should outscale for free.”

zolamalo says “If he gets help from his jungler, the matchup becomes difficult; otherwise, it’s skill-based who comes out on top in a 1v1.”
0
ShokLoL says “Galio is low threat 1v1 but normally you can't push him out of lane through his sustain. I would opt for a phase rush scaling page and just focus on matching his push on the wave and not dying to ganks.”
0
Chuleex says “very inmobile and telegraphed champ, onc ehe gets tanky he can be annoing, watchout for his e since even if you avoid it he can catch you with w and his jungler, look to match his roams and punish him if he fails his combo”
