Galio vs LeBlanc

Updated May 31, 2026

Overview

Galio is a medium lane pressure, anti-magic tank who thrives by forcing short trades and punishing LeBlanc's mobility mistakes.
Focus on denying LeBlanc safe scaling by using wave pressure and your W and E to control her engage windows.

Trading pattern

Take short trades using Q and passive, then threaten W taunt and E knock-up if LeBlanc steps too close.
Punish LeBlanc immediately after she wastes W or fails to chain her abilities cleanly.
Avoid chasing LeBlanc through poke; instead, wait for her to overcommit to engage with E or W.

Danger windows

When W or E are down, LeBlanc can trade more freely; respect her mobility and burst during these times.
LeBlanc is dangerous when she chains LeBlanc W and LeBlanc E successfully, especially around level 2 and 6.
Avoid extended trades if your R is unavailable, as your map threat and peel are significantly reduced.

Early game

Use Q and passive to chip waves early and keep LeBlanc pushed under tower where her low waveclear is a liability.
Hold W and E to punish LeBlanc when she uses W aggressively or mispositions.
Avoid extended trades before level 6; focus on wave control and punishing missed LeBlanc W engages.

Power spikes

Galio's level 6 R greatly increases map impact and skirmish threat.
First durability or AP utility item enhances Galio's short trade safety and peel potential.
Respect LeBlanc's level 2 burst with LeBlanc Q plus W or E and her level 6 LeBlanc R for all-in windows.

Win conditions

Use W and E to force LeBlanc into short trades and punish her if she misuses W.
Push waves to force LeBlanc under tower, exploiting her low waveclear and punishing attempts to contest.
Roam with R after pushing to impact side fights and protect allies, leveraging your crowd control and tankiness.
