Wild Rift Galio Gameplay Tips and Tricks

Screenshot 2021 04 01 10 52 15 77 500038da5365cdd33792125a3fce7f35

Early Game: 

Galio is an excellent counter to mage champions like Ahri, Oriana, and Aurelion Sol. In the early game, poke enemies with your first ability (war of winds) and third ability (Justice Punch). Galio gets magic resistance from his abilities so use it wisely against mage champions to trade more effectively. 

Mid Game: 

Galio has almost global ultimate like Twisted fate. Galio can teleport on near ally champions and also grants them shield from Durand’s passive. So, when playing as a Galio, stay in your lane, try to push turrets as much as you can, and use your ultimate to join your team in team fights. Galio’s Mid-game is pretty strong so try to engage in team fights as much as you can.

Late Game: 

In the late game, Galio is one of the best solo lane pushers as he can always help his teammates with his ultimate ability. Galio can one-shot enemies squishy target in the late game.
