This is my new choice for mana over Rod of Ages. Its passive can proc Dark Harvest, and the cdr and ap come immediately which helps your trading. Only issue is that you are a lot squishier.WAS a very important first buy as it makes you more durable, fixes your mana problems, and provides a high amount of AP all in one item. Still is a strong option, pretty much preference of mana items between this and Luden's Echo.is essential for turning Galio into an AP assassin.is a great buy afterbecause having the extra flat pen that early gives you a ton of extra damage as you completely remove the enemy squishies' magic resit. Finish intolast.provides a gap closer, extra close range burst, gets you a bit more hp as well.transforms Galio into a one shot machine. I hold off on this item despite its importance because until you get a decent amount of stacks of dark harvest and a substantial amount of AP, it isn't that effective. By waiting on other items first you maximize your usefulness until you power spike off Lich Bane.if you need to 1 shot even harder and you are very fed.if they are itemizing against you or have tanks.andare standard defensive AP items.Makes you tanky and increases your damage, but wastes the eternity passive if you already have it from ROA.andare gap closing items. Sincewas changed to deal magic damage it is affected by your magic penetration and adds even more damage to your auto attack.is useful as a very late game item where diving and 1 shotting could mean you dying. If it gets to that point your dark harvest will carry your damage anyways. I have won a few games off GA.
