Updated:

06 Mar 2023

Galio, The Colossus, is a mage champion that can initiate or control teamfights with his crowd control skills. His ultimate, “ Hero’s Entrance”, enables Galio to select an ally as a landing spot, and grants them a magic shield. When Galio lands on the spot, he knocks up all the enemies in the area. In this article, we will rank each of his skins so we can determine which skins are worth buying, especially now that Galio and his skins received a rework.

8. Commando Galio

Commando Galio Splash Art

Let’s face it. Commando skin line is one of the disappointing skin lines in League of Legends. Aside from the great splash art, redesigned in-game model, and his ultimate skill effect where the Commando Emblem is seen in the landing spot, there are no new particles or sound effects, as well as recall animation.

How to get it: It can be obtained as a skin shard in a Hextech Box, as a permanent skin by rerolling three skin shards, or by purchasing it for 520 Riot Points.

Debonair Galio is one of the unusual skins for Galio. It comes with a classy splash art and an in-game model where Galio is a gentleman who has a hair, mustache, and beard wearing a suit at the same time. Unfortunately, there are no new recall animation, skills, sounds, or particle effects for this skin.

How to get it: It can be obtained as a skin shard in a Hextech Box, as a permanent skin by rerolling three skin shards, or by purchasing it for 750 Riot Points.

6. Hextech Galio

Hextech Galio Splash Art

Hextech Galio is one of the skins that players can buy for a limited time. Even though the skin is quite cheap, it comes with new splash art and an in-game model that has been improved since Galio was reworked. Hextech particles are incorporated into his skills and particle effects, but not the same effects that are given to the Hextech skins that are obtainable using gemstones or mythic essence.

How to get it: Currently unavailable. Players can buy this skin once the legacy vault has been reopened.

5. Enchanted Galio

Enchanted Galio is a skin that does not belong in any skin lines. His in-game model is an ancient runic golem that comes with a bit of skill and particle effects, but the same recall animation and sound effects as his other skins. It also comes with a new splash art. Considering its price, the overall theme and design of this skin is decent.

Don’t get fooled by this skin. Even though joke skins are just created to bring laughter and fun while playing, Birdio is definitely one of the best skins.

2. Dragon Guardian Galio

Dragon Guardian Galio Splash Art

Dragon Guardian Galio is the most recent addition to his skins, arriving in 2021. It comes with a majestic splash art, a new in-game model where Galio is a white dragon with gray scales and blue wings. Dragon heads, white particles are incorporated into his skills. It also comes with a new death and recall animation. This should have been the best skin if we are focusing purely on the looks, but it needs a couple of new dialogues. A Chroma Bundle is also available for this skin.

How to get it: It can be obtained as a skin shard in a Hextech Box, as a permanent skin by rerolling three skin shards, or by purchasing it for 1350 Riot Points.

1. Gatekeeper Galio

Gatekeeper Galio Splash Art

Gatekeeper Galio is currently the best skin in terms of what it offers. The splash art gives justice to the true height of Galio when it comes to the lore, and it totally looks terrifying as he judges the mortals in hell. Galio’s in-game model wears black and gold armor with a red and green body. His wings create the tornado of the first skill, and the shield of the second skill. What makes this skin even better is the recall animation. His wings create a gate, which is the same gate that he walks out of once he arrives at the fountain. It also comes with tons of interactions and death animation.

How to get it: It can be obtained as a skin shard in a Hextech Box, as a permanent skin by rerolling three skin shards, or by purchasing it for 1820 Riot Points.
