I think this is a good build for random 5on5 games to counter
hopelessly fed Yis, Leblances etc..
I prefer AP/Offtank-Galio but a full Tank-Galio is still viable.

Thornmail, isn't good in all situations.

Pretty meh guide.


EDIT: Evil trolls ruining your score.

I'm sorry, but i'm just going to be brutally honest: This guide is so ****ing lazy. I mean really. You focused so hard on being entertaining that you forgot to add half of the stuff nedded for a proper guide.

Let me sum it up:

• The runes. There are no runes outside the cheat-sheet. And the cheat-sheet says MPen/Mp5/ApLevel/FlatAP. So what, no armor on a MELEE mid? You know, the worst thing for a melee mid is auto attacks early on... you want that flat armor.
  Why no Magic resistance per level? They will BOTH ap and MR, so i think APLevel is kinda silly.
  
  
• Why does the cheat-sheet say Thornmail before Warmog's Armor? You should NEVER get Thornmail as your first full item on... ANYONE. Thornmail requires a good healthpool to be useful; and it makes you so suspectible to magic damage. Health will defend you against both Physical and Magical damage, and paired with your Bulwark you are just a crazy tank from the moment you get your Warmog's Armor.
  
  
• LOl@masteries. I mean, sure, i sometimes do 0-30-0 on Yorick when i'm the only tank on the team, but Galio doesn't need that. Legendary Armor is pretty bad (It's described in my Yorick Guide why - Under the FAW section and Perseverance is bad too.) You probably want to invest 9 points into offesnse to get the 8% Magic Penetration.
  And in your guide you don't even EXPLAIN your choice of masteries and runes! "Pick the most badass ones!" - Really, dude? Come on. You seem like a good guy and a decent writer: You can do better than that!
  
  
• Under weaknesses: I REALLY suggest that you STRESS that Galio is NOT a full AP Carry! He does not do the same amounts of magical damage as, say, Ahri does, and is not an AP carry per se!
  It is a rookie mistake many makes, and i really, really think you should point it out more.
  
  
• On Bulwark: You should stress more that it actually increases your damage CONSIDERABLY. Especially if skilled second.
  It's worth mentioning that this skill is actually the SECOND LARGEST Armor+MR increase in the game! Only outdone by Rammus Defensive Curl which is a Self-target only!
  If you put Bulwark on a bruiser like Riven or Jarvan IV they become ridiculous monsters of epic wrecking.
  
  
• Galio is a good contender for Enchantment: Homeguard abuse. Pick teleport, go back, get the movespeed then teleport to botlane and do a super flash-ult gank with crazy movespeed. You should mention that somewhere :)
  
  
• Banshee's Veil also blocks a CC that would've potentially stopped your ult. Just throwing it out there. I don't prefer either when i play Galio.
  
  
• On escaping: You might wanna note that you don't actually have to use Q on the jungler, but rather use on the target that has the most CC.
  
  
• No match-ups section :(?
  
  
• What are you thoughts on Runic Bulwark - the currently highest MR item in the game?
  
  
• How about Shard of True Ice? What are your thoughts on it?
  
  
• Randuin's Omen - thoughts?

Otherwise a decent guide. It has pretty pictures and text, and i'm not much of a nitpicker on stuff like that; I honestly think people use too many colors and makes it overly hard to read just to make it look "cool" or "inviting" or whatever.

I'd give it around 6/10, because i think you were lazy when you made it. A lot of stuff is missing. The stuff that is in here already is good, but you could add SO much more.

Thanks for visiting my review shop!

So moving on :
-I agree with most of the things you said :D
-There's nothing wrong with you're guide meaning it's awesome
-Really good effort
-has some good points and thorough explaining

The entire cheat sheet is so wrong that... wow.. I don't even want people to think it's even remotely viable.

nice guide.Galio is one of my favourite champions.

I've tried it and it works fine. Although Galio isn't really my champion because I miss my ult way too much.

like the guide structure and the items, nice work.

Your spells drain mana like a pinguin drains fish

Lol, best line ever!

Please vote and rate, I want to reach the top after all!

So refreshingly honest that I should use this as my signature :)

PS: Don't like your items and the coding is meh. But that doesn't matter after all as you entertained me :P

I really like this guide. Only thing i would love to see is some pictures or videos of Galio plays *.*
