Well it has several other uses. It can be like a single target Karthus ult to kill someone who just barely survived a gank. Especially good when they think they are safe at their tower or blue piling. At that point they tend to have used their flash and can't get out of the AOE in time. I occasionally run GP with CV for just that reason and it almost always gets me at least 1 kill.

You can use it to initiate a fight as it tends to cause the enemy to alter their behavior and gets people jumpy. They scatter and you can jump on a single enemy. Also if you have that 1 guy who seems to be just holding you off his tower a well placed GP ult can get them to retreat so you can kill the tower or you can take them out quickly before the tower kills you.

It also can be used to protect a tower if there is no one around to get to it in time. Even if the enemy thinkgs they can soak the ult damage it will quickly kill off all his supporting minions leaving them as the only target for the towers wrath. Even better in dominion where it stops captures untill help can arrive.

If you have a Galio or Sona or Amumu you will find that combining ults dramatically increases your.
