Galio Matchups Overview
Galio General information
Galio tips and tricks
Always play respectfully once you hit level 6. Your Ultimate R is pure utility and it cannot be used in a skirmish as effectively as most enemy champions.
You can set up your Jungler to gank your lane easily if you have the wave pushed towards you.
Before roaming with your Ultimate R, use your Q and E to push the wave quickly. Follow that up with an empowered AOE auto-attack to one-shot the wave.
