Galio

Tank

Outside the gleaming city of Demacia, the stone colossus Galio keeps vigilant watch. Built as a bulwark against enemy mages, he often stands motionless for decades until the presence of powerful magic stirs him to life.

Strengths

  • You can release Shield of Durand even while crowd controlled.
  • You can use the minimap ally icons to cast Hero's Entrance.
  • You can use the step back from Justice Punch to dodge enemy spells.

Abilities

  • Passive · Colossal Smash — Every few seconds, Galio's next basic attack deals bonus magic damage in an area.
  • Q · Winds of War — Galio fires two windblasts that converge into a large tornado that deals damage over time.
  • W · Shield of Durand — Galio charges a defensive stance, moving slowly. Upon releasing the charge, Galio will taunt and damage nearby enemies.
  • E · Justice Punch — Galio will briefly step back and charge, knocking up the first enemy champion he encounters.
  • Ultimate · Hero's Entrance — Galio designates an ally's position as his landing spot, granting all allies in the area a magic shield. After a delay Galio smashes down location, knocking up nearby enemies.

Team Composition

A suggested 5-lane lineup built around Galio, based on hero partnerships and role synergy — not win rate.
