Azir vs Galio

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 10, 2026

Overview

Prioritize stable wave control to safely farm and outscale Galio's moderate lane pressure.
Keep medium lane pressure to deny Galio easy short-range trades and limit his roam impact.
Use soldier zones and (R) to control space and prevent Galio's all-in attempts.

Trading pattern

Trade by placing soldiers with (W) and poking with (Q), avoiding (E) commits without safe exits.
Punish Galio when he misses (W) or (E), as his engage and peel tools are limited then.
Avoid trades when (W) and (E) are up to prevent getting caught by his short-range CC.

Danger windows

Beware when (W) and (E) are available, enabling layered CC and engage.
Avoid aggressive (E) use without a clear escape path to prevent being punished.
Respect (R) availability, which can turn side fights and protect allies.

Early game

Hold a controlled wave to farm without overextending before your soldiers have damage threat.
Respect (W) taunt and (E) knock-up cooldowns by avoiding close-range walks.
Use (Q) and (W) poke only when Galio steps too close, saving (E) for escape or repositioning.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) grants a strong defensive tool to disengage and punish Galio's all-ins.
First completed mage DPS item boosts soldier damage, increasing pressure and trade threat.
Respect Galio's level 6 (R) for his map impact and teamfight presence, limiting kill windows.

Win conditions

Scale through controlled farming and soldier positioning to chip and zone Galio effectively.
Use (R) to stop Galio's all-ins and punish overextensions with soldier DPS.
Deny Galio's roam impact by maintaining lane priority and pressuring objectives during his absence.

Tip: For Azir vs Galio, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
