Who Wins

  • Pre-6 you lose most trades due to Xayah's superior DPS and Rakan's engage threat, but can poke with Q bounces when they're farming.
  • Post-6 you win if Galio lands W taunt into your R, but lose if Rakan gets a clean engage with R.

Synergy & Trading

  • Use Q bounces on minions to harass Xayah when she's last-hitting, then follow up with W root if Galio lands Q slow or taunt.
  • Your best trades happen when you can proc your passive 4th shot after Galio's CC lands.

Wave Control/Roaming

  • Push early waves with Q bounces to establish priority, then look for slow pushes to set up Galio roams.
  • Avoid hard shoving without vision since you're immobile and vulnerable to Rakan engages.

Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't use W aggressively without Galio's follow-up since you'll be vulnerable to Rakan's W-E combo.
  • Never face-check bushes or walk up without Flash when Rakan has R available.
