Vel'Koz vs Galio

Confidence mediumUpdated Jun 8, 2026

Overview

Use long-range (Q) poke angles to pressure Galio and deny his engage access.
Control brush to limit Galio's short-range (W) taunt and (E) knock-up threat.
Enable ADC follow-up by layering poke and holding (E) for peel or burst windows.

Trading pattern

Use split (Q) angles and (W) to poke before Galio commits engage tools.
Hold (E) for peel when (E) or (W) are available to protect ADC access.
Engage only when (E) is down and ADC can follow up on your knockup.

Danger windows

Respect (W) taunt and (E) knock-up cooldowns as windows where ADC is vulnerable.
Beware of Galio's level 6 (R) roam or counter-engage; keep river warded and ADC safe.
Avoid standing near brush without vision to prevent surprise engage and taunt angles.

Early game

Track level 2 to combine (Q) poke and (E) knockup with ADC follow-up for strong trades.
Deny Galio brush control to reduce his engage angles and protect your ADC.
Use wave pressure to keep lane near your tower, limiting Galio's roam and engage options.

Power spikes

Level 2 unlocks (Q)+(E) combo; use it to threaten early poke and knockup with ADC.
Level 3 completes poke pattern; pressure with full kit around brush control and enemy cooldowns.
Level 6 (R) enables burst all-in; coordinate with ADC and river vision for safe execution.

Win conditions

Convert poke pressure into denied enemy ADC positioning and forced recalls.
Use vision control to secure dragon setup and prevent Galio's roam impact.
Coordinate (R) burst with ADC follow-up to win 2v2 fights and create lane priority.

Tip: For Vel'Koz vs Galio, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Support lane check.
