Overview

Use (R) to protect your ADC from Galio's engage and counter his roam impact.
Deny Galio's engage angle by controlling brush and holding (Q) stacks for stun peel.
Maintain river vision to track Galio's roam timer and prevent ADC isolation.

Trading pattern

Build passive stacks before threatening (Q) stun to force Galio back and enable ADC follow-up.
Hold (E) shield to absorb Galio's burst and (W) knockup, timing peel for enemy engage cooldowns.
Deny Galio brush access to reduce his engage angles and protect ADC positioning.

Danger windows

Respect (W) taunt and (E) knockup cooldowns as high-threat engage windows.
Beware of (R) roam timing that can isolate your ADC or force defensive resets.
Avoid overextending when Galio controls brush or river vision, limiting your ADC's safety.

Early game

Win level 2 by landing (Q) stacks and threatening (R) to secure ADC safety.
Hold brush control to limit (W) taunt engage and deny his short-range trades.
Coordinate with ADC to crash wave before roaming to keep lane priority and ADC protected.

Power spikes

Level 6 (R) unlocks clutch peel or pick; use it to isolate Galio or save ADC.
First tank item improves (E) durability, enabling more confident short trades and peel windows.
Post-level 6, track (R) cooldown to punish Galio's reduced map presence and engage threat.

Win conditions

Convert brush control and (Q) stun threat into denied enemy ADC positioning and safer ADC trades.
Use (R) to negate Galio's all-in or roam impact, enabling your ADC to trade safely.
Set river vision around dragon to prevent Galio's map plays and secure objective setup with your ADC.
