User blog comment:DualDragonAce/Support : the underrated game carry - and how they carry/@comment-6555045-20130719104855

That's why I love to play Galio for the support role. There's a surprising amount of people who don't know how he works that get caught completely off guard by his abilities, and since he works so much like a mid-lane mage, if the carry turns out to have the tactical skill of a schizophrenic gerbil (which happens more often than I'd like), I'm in a better position to take control of the lane than if I'm someone like Soraka or Sona. And god help any idiot Ezreal who thinks Galio is easy pickings and gets too close. He's also a master of team fights. He can help the entire team pursue, slow down the enemy, heals himself when whoever's Bulwarked (including himself) takes damage, and can taunt the entire enemy team (if they got too close or you Flash in) for two seconds, allowing your team (provided they have any sense) to get their shots in.
