Halkem says “He's a bulky anti-mage that has the same game plan as you: Push and roam. His push is a little better than yours, so ward the lane close to his tower and keep track of him always. Ping the map to help your team. You can follow his ganks usually and in the worst scenario burn TP to reach faster.”

Iceyou says “Dont try to kill you dont have enough mana . Poke him a bit get the push play aggro win game . Business as usuall . Go ignite here if you have aggresive jungler or tp if you have a passive one .”

TrueGIXERJ says “galio is an anti-AP tank so you should be good to just walk through him all through the laning phase, don't stand right on top of him so as not to get taunted, and don't walk into his Q damage. make sure you ping your teamies when he steps out of lane post-6 so he doesn't get a triple-kill bot with R.”
0
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. ”
0
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.”
0
Tokiyami says “Can play very aggressive early game just be wary of his Taunt into Knock up combo. Just try to bully him as much as possible early game, you can also E his E if you time it correctly.”
0
Lindroganti says “Strangely hard, don't let him cancel your W with his dash. His poke is deadly to Panth as you have no MR and are short range. You need to engage him then block out, or you need to block him and counter. Shielding is imperative. If he has aftershock, you NEED to play around it. Ping his roams.”

support_diff says “Galio has a magic damage shield. Great, you don't deal magic damage. Galio has a taunt. Great, you really like auto attacking him. You pretty much fully counter him, so bully him on lane while dodging his Q to win even more. Keep you vision up so you don't get ganked as the taunt becomes a really deadly weapon if it is a 2v1 situation”
0
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.”
0
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.”

Zero macro says “Galio the melee tank/mage with magic resist scalings will have a hard time into Caitlyn Mid. Thereby Galio his goal will be roaming with his R and form gank setup into Caitlyn whenever he gets ganked. Avoid this as Caitlyn and take your easy lane advantage as far as possible.”

Wizardd says “Nobody really plays him. But he's tanky so it's a little hard to get him out of lane. But he can't really get to you. So just push lane and poke him when the opportunity arises. ”

freuio123 says “Ist sogar ne 4.5 Galio ist super stark in Ahri. Du kannst ihn bis Lost Chapter kaum Schaden machen, wirst outpushed und seine Ulti verhindert in den Meisten Fällen deine catches.
Galio verliert die Games, weil das Design Kacke ist, aber grade im Comp ein absoluter hard counter in Ahri”
0
NickLeVlach says “50 - 50 situation. It's another Ap counter. All he really needs to do is survive the 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.”

Zeusman00 says “Generally a favorable matchup for Cassio as she solid DPS with components. Biggest threat is the Q poke and the CC Galio has to set up ganks”

Asturic says “His passive is annoying, but you can dodge his e and ult easily. Poke him to death.”
0
Jg_diff says “Just don't let him take too much CS and you'll be just fine. If he fails his farm, he will be too weak to participate in team fights. If he does so, he will be a complete clickbait. Still beware his ultimate as it can turn a fight upside down. ”
0
Cryniu says “It could be a hard match because defense of Galio. Although you can poke freely in laning phase, Galio can resist your damage with his shield and roam to help his team. Take advantage of the laning phase and if you are having problems build Mercury's treads. Play to help your team with utility!”

Shenheiser says “Not very scary but hard to pull off full kills on him.”
0
Wraithlander says “This champ has a surprising amount of damage and poke with his low CD Q and strong all in combo. His E can cancel our W and his magic resistance makes him quite tough to deal with. You outscale him in fights however and can steal his ult to match his roams or make roams of your own if you have stronger side lanes or jungler is rotating.”

Demat Cosmic

Barrier.
Push the lane early and punish his cooldowns/melee status. Count down his dash in your head.
Ping for ult roams, do not get in range of his dash taunt, dodge q's and don't burst him mid-taunt.
A good galio will be unkillable. Play to scale and land a good E for ganks/skirmishes.”

Deru says “Just annoying matchup in general, not hard nor difficult. He can match your roams after 6 but not before, so abuse that.”

MiniLuxi1 says “Just keep your distance, catch him on the jerk (E) of his Q, his ulta has training. You can put a W if he tries to get you with his W. He's more of a melee.”

StralekS says “Kat Favored: Conqueror/ Domination: vs Tanks, Ignite + Flash, Long Sword start. Play lane safely, farm, and when he wastes ability, punish him with all in combo. Rush BOTRK on start.”
0
WayOfTheWlnd says “Can be poked down, and dominated if played well in laning phase. However, when he gets his 6 just ping your teammates, because he can become fed and very tanky.”
0
Mayuushii says “Melee mage that doesn't have much kill pressure. Try to avoid his Q and harass as much as you want. Cancel his E with yours and use W to avoid his taunt or E. Try not to waste spells on him when he channels taunt.”
0
Samikin says “Non-Threat.
Most Galio's you face are usually auto-filled and easy to beat by continuously poking them out of lane and pushing the lane if they don't contest the minion wave. Make sure not to let Galio hit both you and the wave with Q and don't let them push the wave for free. Your team will definitely appreciate that. Galio never has enough damage to kill you.
Recommendation:
Aery (+ Ingenious Hunter) rune page
Crown of the Shattered Queen + Lich Bane”

TheAfricanDream says “One of the easiest matchups for Swain. His larger hitbox makes it easier for Swain to land his E and W for easy passive stacks. Play aggressively in lane as you have the range advantage. Keep in mind that Galio can easily setup ganks with his jungler onto you.”

MetalK1d says “Go Electro&Ignite if you wanna kill him, or go Chillin' Rune and farm.”

Cjtheawesome says “Pretty easy lane to scale in, just watch out for his charge and taunt combo if his jungler comes to gank mid.”
0
Demonsedge90 says “Galio's magic shield negates a good chuck of your burst damage, making him a difficult challenge for Syndra. A good tip would be to wait until his shield is down. It's best to do this without putting yourself in harm's way. After it's down, this helps ensure that your full combo deals the maximum damage to him.”

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 inÃcio do jogo devido ao seu passivo, pense em como você faz o Q no inÃcio, 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 possÃvel no inÃcio. 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 possÃvel no inÃcio 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 impossÃvel 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.”

IamBishop says “You clap this dude. Cancel his w with your e, this will be big in team fights because that taunt can mess up your team pretty hard, and it sets up his own dash knockup.

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.”

DixonTheGuideMaker says “When Galio charges towards you, try to disengage as quickly as possible. If you let him get close, he will look to engage with his Justice Punch(E) and then taunt you with his Shield of Durand(W).

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.
Grudge or Cleaver can help take care of Galio a little, And edge of night to pervent the taunt from catching you.”
0
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.”

Bughans says “You won't kill him, but he won't kill you either. I mean if you get a gank he'll die. But if you don't use your W stupidly he can't catch you out.”

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.”

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. His R allows him to follow you when you're roaming so you can't even gain an advantage through that in a lot of cases.”

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. ”

Super08131208 says “This match up isn't hard, it's just very hard to kill Galio especially against AP champs. Try not to get poked by his Q too much and avoid being hit by his E+W+Q combo. Wait till his Aftershock goes out then you can fight. If he goes AP you have a better kill potential. If he goes tank with Aftershock, look for pokes. Only thing you really lose hard to is his ability to gank.

Zoose says “Auto attack him whenever he uses E. Play a little safe while your E is down. W is another peel tool to flick him away while he's in his slow moving taunt. At lv 6, he will look to ult teleport so ward behind walls or deep in lane and ping teammates. Look to match his roams with your ultimate.”

Esrucnl says “Very hard to kill because of his W ability making him tankier and getting a in-built magic shield from it. It is possible to kill Galio the very first levels during laning phase if you manage to outplay him and dodge his abilities and all in him with ignite.
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.

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.”

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! Be mindful of being ganked though as Galio is pretty easy to gank for if you're pushed. He becomes a problem if he builds Rocketbelt but, unless he is fed, he can't kill you. Take Barrier.”

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.

Go Cleanse if their jungler has CC, too (Ex: Fiddle, Elise)”

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.”

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.

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.

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.

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.

galio is pretty annoying to play against,he have too much CC.
in lane try to dodge his Q and W,you can easily dash out of his E range if he don't land his W.
you can all-in lvl2,just try to poke him lvl 1.
and be careful with galio's R it can destroy teamfights early.
you can block his Q.”

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.”

iZianni says “Even match up, but Galio has advantage due to his win condition being side lanes instead of mid.

Look to scale, look to hard push wave to deny roam potential.”
0
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”
0
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.”

TheEnglishman says “This matchup boils down to this. His ult can follow you but is lower range which is exploitable. Since you can lock your card in any form of cc as long as you press w before his taunt you can interrupt his combo with a stun. In this matchup you want to sit back, farm, and outscale. While his setups with a jungle are potent if you get solo killed in lane and he isn't crazy fed beforehand you made a major positioning error.”

Sanctuar says “Playing against Galio, keep a few things in mind: First, always punish him for lasthitting due to him being a melee champion, and second, have your E ready to keep your distance from him, should he try to engage with his E.

Galio wins post-6 (but this is the time you have to be weary when he is roaming). ||

Tip: [[[Galio is a good ban]]] It is really hard to kill galio. He has insane wave clear, roams, trades, and gank set up - not only this but it's almost impossible to one-shot him.

Little Planet says “Galio depends on whether it's the tank build or the mage build.
The mage build falls over easily as you mostly deal physical damage in the early game and thus his W passive does nothing to help him out.
Not to mention your waveclear is superior and that he can't really escape if you get on top of him.
If he goes tank you won't have the damage and he can just slowly chip away at you until you're all out of steam, just push and look for roams.”

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.

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.”

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.”

Coldsong says “Galio will destroy you due to his strong team fighting and his anti-mage kit. Do not trade with him early and just try to farm up. This matchup used to be even harder, but since Galio has been repeatedly nerfed it is a little bit easier to deal with him. ”

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.

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.”

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.

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. ”

Ask your jungler to help kill him since he's fairly easy to kill with some help.”

LightningTemplar says “Conqueror setup. Doran's Blade start. CS with Q or W+E. Do short trades with W+E+Q. Play off his cooldowns, especially on his W. Ask jungler for help. You will struggly killing him solo, but so will he should you play somewhat safe. 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.
Make sure wave doesn't crash into your tower and try to all in if you windwall his q.
Note: Galio does a deceptively large amount of damage.”

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. Try to get your jungler to gank early due to him getting melted by AD champions, if your jungler is ap than you have to hit your stun to win the 1v2.”

8wolf says “Don't let him get close. His short range make him a good target for poke and you can zone him out and deny him cs. Careful if he tries to engage. He's very tanky and you probably won't kill him, so just farm up and try not to die.”
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.”

NebuIa says “Galio should be easy to deal with, but his jungler will probably try to camp you. Just try to stay back and avoid his E. He shouldn't ever be able to kill you. If the enemy jungler is scary consider cleanse, and maybe phase rush to help run from him.”
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.”

maplecat21 says “Before he was gutted and became a support, he had lane pressure on you but got outscaled. After that, he lost his lane pressure. I'll be adjusting his threat rating as people play the recently changed version, but I doubt he has any pressure now.”
0
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.”

Puppeteer_TH says “During team fight, Facing 'full tank' Galio might not be a good idea especially if he goes for armors. This build didn't include armor penetration or Infinity Edge to help you melt down his health bar but It should be okay if you're 1 on 1.”

Yenwai says “his CC and magic resistance makes him hard to deal with alone, but his global R and ability to interrupt your R with his taunt make him a hard lane, like Kassadin avoid him and let your team fight him, your silence will NOT end his shield of durand ability FYI.”

BL00dY3nD says “Not a easy lane. You cant kill him and he cant kill you. Just a boring lane. If he gets abyssal mask it will be impossible to kill him. Ask you jungler for ganks. if you kill him before he gets his first item you might bully him out of the lane.”

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.”

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.”

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.”

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.”

Doctor_Dr says “How to counter: Poke constantly. Never get to close otherwise you lose trade.”

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.”

JuaniG17 says “Tanky but not a threat as long as he doesnt poke with his Q”

His dash is linear so you can catch him, but save your burst for when his damage reduction is on CD.

Ryecheria says “Be respectful of Galio flash taunt combo. You can poke him out of lane so he is unable to engage. Let the rest of your team know when and possible where he is going on his roam timers.
Know his range for E and W. Stay away from bushes. If he has at least 1 bush, he can flash w or e-w. Keep bushes warded. ”

Fenreee says “Only use Q aggressively when his abilities are on cooldown as he has a lot of tools to punish you for it. You can use your E to cancel his dash but you can sometimes get hit and end up cancelling his taunt charge up which will end up knocking you up, taunting you after and giving Galio a free escape. Just be quick with E and stay in max range of his dash so this won't happen. ”
0
mazewalk says “Galios E allows him to ingnore hooks during the first part of animation and it also works as a dodge so use flay against it. His poke might be annoying but his whole kit pushes lane really hard so he is vulnerable to ganks. Deny him ultimate during its cast and taunt (it cancel asap as he gets CCed).”

Fear The Jester says “place boxes defensively so he cant just E W engage you, otherwise he cant really do much else”

IdolizedDiva says “Taunt is the bane of my existence. Keep your distance.”

mazewalk says “Once again, Jack of all trades.
He deals a lot of damage if he lands his E, so try baiting it before all-ins.
Also aim accuratelly, because E moves him slightly backwards and this can result in you missing your engage tool and getting punched by another bird.”

Aerenax says “Galio is another niche support pick that you won't see often. If you so see him, it will be an easy matchup. When you combo his adc he will probably taunt you or get on top of your adc. See what he does and react accordingly. If he decides to engage, just bump him away or dash on his adc.”

Cyclic says “You have a big range advantage over galio and his only engage is very telegraphed. You should be able to poke for free similar, albeit with a bit more caution then the braum matchup

Casterslamham says “Another tank but kinda a counter for Yorick with how much he disables him with his stuns and Yoricks inferior movement to dodge and his shield blocking your poke for the most part just wait for your adc and plan a coordinated effort to beat him.”

iveye says “Another Peel based match-up where your goal is to just not let your carry be engaged on. If he gets a double taunt its almost a insta-lost fight with him.”

Arch Aspire says “He has a tiny escape dash which, if you time it right with your Q, you'll be able to stop. His taunt allows you to basically walk up to him, Q+fear. ”

Fenreee says “|||MID||| You can cancel his dash with Q, meaning it's hard for him to knock you up. He can, however, flash>taunt you and then knock you up instantly. His R is pretty slow so you shouldn't get hit by it if you hold onto W.
|||SUPPORT||| Same as mid but also completely free lane. A good Galio will try to roam this matchup with R, and that's the only real play he has on you. If you take Relentless and mobies you can often run to the location of his roams and deny him engages there since Janna is just that fast. ”

Lugos says “His taunt and R are strong but if he cant get close to you he cant do anything against you.”

DixonTheGuideMaker says “When Galio charges towards you, try to disengage as quickly as possible. If you let him get close, he will look to engage with his Justice Punch(E) and then taunt you with his Shield of Durand(W). As soon as Galio goes missing post level 6, ping your team as he may be looking to roam with his Ultimate Hero's Entrance(R).”

Jageiko says “Galio is fairly easy to deal with. His dash is very telegraphed and easy to read. Cancel it and focus his damage dealing allies, he'll die later.
His R can mess up your lane, but your damages are huge, you should be able to kill before he lands. If not, W before being bumped to avoid the chain CC on you.”

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.”

Touka1 says “Not sure if anyone plays this champions as support but you are able to cancel his engage anytime with Q or R if necessary”

TheBlueImperial says “I will put this one does as a skill matchup, mainly because Galio is more than capable of messing up your engagements and has insane zoning power with his ultimate when you engage onto his team. Stand between you and your carry and he will not be able to do anything to them.”

LoL_BrandZ says “Any all in engage is a threat to rakan. The counter is to never engage first. Always play counter engage in lane vs these champs.”

beefyylol says “You can very easily die to Galio in lane if you do not respect his CC. Also, once he hits 6 he can follow your roams whenever he has ult.
Galio is very similar to Alistar because as long as you keep your distance early you will outscale him. ”

beeinthefranxx says “Hesquite annoying qith his homophobic q and w but you should be able to out poke and sustain”

neuroplasticity says “Not as prevalent of a pick anymore Galio can still be scary if he ever manages to get in your face.
Focus on poking the ADC since Galio has high MR and a magic shield. Going even in lane is perfectly fine as you're much more useful later on. Bush control helps a lot so he can't look for engage angles from Fog.
Similar to most engage supports Galio has a high CD on his main CC (his taunt starts at 18 seconds) so posture aggressively whenever he whiffs his spells. Bubble the ADC if he manages to jump onto your carry. Bubbling Galio can also work as it disrupts the channel of his taunt.
Ping Galio's level 6 and keep the river warded to spot his roams. His ultimate also has a huge cooldown that is worth keeping track off (200 seconds at rank 1).
Use your ult to disengage or counterengage and consider Redemption to counteract his ultimate. Run Guardian when paired with an immobile ADC.
Janna
Probably one of Nami's easiest matchups your kit straightup counters her's. You outsustain her and also have more damage in trades. Use your Q or R to disrupt her ultimate.
Be wary of her roams as she is incredibly fast.

warmfishu says “Not a terrible threat while his knock-up, Justice Punch (E), is on cooldown. Hero's Entrance (R) is a large AoE knockup, but it is highly telegraphed, so you can hopefully avoid it.”

Rasta Da Masta says “Waveclear? (P & Q) Check! Anti-magic shield (W) to nullify poke? Check! Can engage (E) on you for CC? Check! Match your roams/TP with his R that also grants that OP shield to his teammates? Double Check! Your saving grace here is his low range on E. Good luck in lane.”

0Banda says “ Galio is quite a difficult matchup for you, he has an AP shield every certain time, he can taunt you, and dash into you, same as counter-roam you after level 6
So this will be your way of playing against Galio:
Build yourself Full Tank (check the runes and build upper on the guide) and constantly roam before level 6, after level 6 you won't be able to roam at least Galio is dead because of his R
Other from that, try engaging into the enemy ADC and ignore Galio, when you see he's charging E against you, cast E back to your ADC ”

Jowoey says “It's hard to completely negate a Galio's engage if you don't time your tornado correctly. Any time he wastes his dash you can poke him but don't path forward too much or he'll taunt you. His ult makes his presence off the map very daunting so try to pay attention to places where your team might be fighting and try to go there if you think he'll ult to them.”

Nino_euw says “Stay out of his E range, slow him as he uses taunts so you can run out of it without him having enough time to expand it.”

TheBestestBork says “This guy... this guy just says no to your ability damage, BUT once you have divine, and if you fell behind you may also need titanic, you cna kill him easily enough if you time your CC. His ULT is also useless in a 1v1 or 2v2 if you can land a stun on him when he tries.”
0
King Crow says “Galios all-in with knockup and taunt along with his tankiness heavily favors him. He has strong damage with Q. The only saving grace is his range of engage is roughly that of your poke. You can fear and silence him if he misses his knockup to prevent his taunt.”

Dotje says “I've had many issues playing against a Galio, you can try and trade a little when you dodge his Q.

Using polymorhp(W) on him before he uses his taunt could be a lifesafer.”

KeleiX13 says “Poke him from far away level 1 and be careful of his level 2, his knockup should be dodgeable unless you step too close so just poke from far away and don't be too aggressive once he has his level 2 and punish him whenever he misses anything.

He can easily turn any fight even if he isn't there. If you dodge his taunt or dash you should be good. His ult startup can cancelled by your W and E.”
0
Starchase says “Poke him as much as you can from lvl 1, but care about his Flash W, he can try to do it if he has an aggresive ADC.
Lvl 3 only detach your ADC if you're good enough to react in time to dodge his E with your W.
Ping your teammates whenever he's missing on the lane.
Care at lvl 6, his magic damage shield could be the reason why you lost the all in.
You outscale him very hard.”

mellorpyke says “Galio can be a really tricky matchup if you're new to Pyke. You simply cant all in against him or you will likely lose the 2v2. His taunt can really fuck you up so, what you can do is look to Q him and bait his W, the taunt has a really long cd so once he wastes it somehow you have a window to all in and beat his ass. Remember, even if you hit Q on the carry DONT E FOWARD.”

Takitsu says “Honestly Easy matchup for thresh with the ability to flay away galio charge and his taunt. But adc's seem to struggle in staying out of his range. Save flay for galio engage to peel your carry. Hook for enemy carry or additional peel on galio. Watch for galio Flash taunting.”

Jexeff says “Quite the difficult matchup in my opinion. Similar to Leona, his justice punch can be flayed to prevent an engagement/knock-up, however even if you flay this, there is no guarantee that you will not be taunted by his shield of durand. Early on he is relatively squishy and without flash he has no guaranteed way to land his engagement. If you can burn his flash with an early hook it will help out. Just have to be really careful of his taunt. ”

itizhelia says “Ever since his famous Flash stun combo got removed he became a much much easier match-up for Rakan but bear in mind Galio is still much stronger than you are in the lane phase since he can easily wait for your engagement to stun you.
If Galio usually engages first to fight in the lane phase then wait out his stun abilities and punish him by either dashing towards him or his ADC and making them lose the trade badly since you can pretty much always dodge his abilities.
In short, don't engage first in the lane phase unless if he has wasted his main spells.”
0
Find0 says “Galio can make it hard for you to engage as he has his ult to follow your roams. You must have phase rush in this matchup. In lane you want to hold headbutt for when he engages and you have to play peel and cannot engage on him unless your jg is nearby.
WIN CON IS PEEL”

Frank6264 says “Al igual que muchos enfrentamientos contra personajes cuerpo a cuerpo, la vulnerabilidad de Galio radica en que necesita acercarse generalmente para poder hacer daño y meter CC por lo que en línea abusen del rango para poder pokearlo, evitando el engage de su E combinado con el flash y la W. En teamfights tengan en cuenta que su habilidad definitiva puede ser muy peligrosa especialmente en espacios cerrados y permite a Galio asistir desde lejos.”

Guoblide says “Galio is a pretty niche support pick that won't be locked in against you often but, when he is, the matchup is pretty favored towards you. Galio has decent poke with Winds of War, gap closing with Justice Punch, damage with Colossal Smash and sustain with Shield of Durand. He can also easily roam to mid lane and Rift Herald with Hero's Entrance. The most important thing to know about this matchup is that the person who engages first usually loses the fight. If Sett engages then Galio taunts him with Shield of Durand and combos off of that. If Galio engages then Sett Facebreakers him out of his Shield of Durand animation and out-trades him. You want to play aggresive without using abilities and try to force the Galio to burn his cooldowns. If you see Galio use either Shield of Durand or Justice Punch then Flash onto him or his ADC and stun them with Facebreaker. Also try your best to dodge Winds of War when Galio casts it to poke you or damage the minion wave. If you get hit by it try to Haymaker the Galio with the Grit you get from being poked and the run away and wait for cooldowns to come back online. If Galio Justice Punches onto your ADC try to focus his ADC and burst them down. Sett has stronger burst in the laning phase so try to kill the enemy ADC or zone them off of your ADC and let your ADC outrade the Galio in a 1v1.”

SynLynx says “His e-w combo is pretty scary for Taliyah, but if you can predict where he'll land after using his e, you can push away or to a more optimal spot with your w.”
0
Apho says “Watch out for Galio E, which is about your W size. Otherwise, stay at your Q range.”
0
Flint124 says “A bit tanky, sure, but your E makes his aftershock significantly worse. You out-poke him, are better in an all-in, and he can't even E away from Wither since he'll hit you when he drops back.”
0
Tult says “NEVER HOOK GALIO WHILE HE'S CHARGING HIS W. It will taunt both you and your adc, and secure both your deaths.”
0
JRazE says “not sure but you'll probably be fine so long as you engage and not him”
0
Loggit says “Tanky AF and oppressive. Difficult to walk up and disengage, so try to focus the adc and roam mid.”
0
Jointed says “Free. Gold. Stacks. Respect his ranges (which are smaller than yours) and you will dominate this lane. Put an F in chat.”
0
JLAD2701 says “Just dodge him but he can do alot of damage if he lands a combo ”
0
Ghionova says “Predictable abilites. You have enough time to charge your Q while he tries to taunt you.”
0
SIeeprer says “Threat Pending (will update after multiple games against) ”
0
Aethlo says “Easy to poke but if you get taunted it can be a problem - just play safe and poke and it should be an easy lane.”
0
Vermeio says “If your adc got caught in his combos, consider going E on his adc. Your W can counter his charge easily, and you can make him respect you by one good burst. Just be cautious with that taunt.”
0
Saethwyr says “The Nice thing about melee engage supports is that while taric has an okay engage, he excels at counter-engaging into an all in, especially if they focus the carry over him. Theres really not much that galio can do in this matchup besides some slight poke with his Q, but even then its pretty easy to dodge.”
0
DBtheKnight says “Your mobility can dance around most of his kit. You're just too mobile for him. ”
0
SawyerNelson says “Galio has to commit himself into the Lux / ADC to get anything done in the lane, and if he does so Lux can block Galio and his ADC's damage with W. You will also likely have a pushing lane giving Galio little opportunities to go in, and you can poke him or his ADC , Galio has no sustain for himself or his ADC. This is one of Lux's easiest matchups.”

best_shacosupport911 says “I would honestly run Font of Life against this pick with Ardent bought early. If you don't you're going to be less effective in lane, but you do you.
Ardent + AAs will proc for everyone taunted/hitting Galio. ”
0
Kian987 says “Shen and Galio support are both out of role but the latter has an advantage on you. He wants you to go in so can reverse-taunt and kill you since he deals more damage.”
0
Kaeze Poulsen says “He's got poke, initiation and a personal magic shield, so stay away from him.”
0
istaysmiley says “Yuumi has a hard time dealing with high CC/Poke champs. It forces ADC to be very passive & lose out on gold.”
0
SawyerNelson says “You can block his E with W. Galio has nowhere to be in a lane against neeko if he stands to the side poke him with Q, if he stands in the minion wave punish him with E. He's not tanky if he can't proc aftershock.”
0
SawyerNelson says “All your abilities suck against a Galio with aftershock running. Most likely don't spend abilities on him, rather avoid him and work around him, better to finish him off at the end of a fight rather than at the start.”
0
TheComicalBiker says “Galio's Winds of War (Q) can poke both you and your carry. His Justice Punch (E) can get close enough for his Shield of Durand (W) to taunt both you and your carry. Try to flay (E) away Galio if he engages with his Justice Punch (E). Keep lantern (W) ready for his ultimate.”
0
MilkyCereal73 says “Just hurts any engage champ with his knockup + Taunt.”
0
Adauchi says “You both serve the ADC with CC.
It's quite even, really about skill gap.”
0
ff20orfeeding says “Galio is tanky with huge utility and handles mages well. However, early on is when we/you are strong and he is fairly weak.”
0
meowingcats says “Tanky if he is allowed to farm into mid-late game. He's very immobile so you should be able to shut him down.”
