| Stage | Favoured | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Galio | Level 1: Galio's Q and empowered auto out-range melee-only Rell before her dismount. |
| Level 2 | Rell | Level 2: Rell's W crash engage comes online and out-trades Galio's walk-up. |
| Level 3 | Rell | Level 3: Rell's mounted W plus E stun lock Galio or his ADC down hard. |
| Levels 4-5 | Rell | Level 4: Rell's armor/MR shred makes her all-ins hurt more than Galio's. |
| Level 6 | Galio | Level 6: Galio's global R can answer Rell's centered Magnet Storm ult. |
| First item | Rell | First item: Rell's reliable hard engage still out-initiates Galio's slower jump. |
| Two+ items | Galio | Late teamfights: Galio's off-screen R and W peel out-impact Rell's engage. |
At level 1 Galio has the edge: his Q double-wind and empowered auto out-range Rell, who is melee and weakest before her W dismount tools come online. Poke her down while she can only walk at you. Once she gets W she gains a real engage, so bank your early advantage before that.
