His gust was kinda useful for getting back to lane/chasing, but the rest of his kit just felt kinda meh. The delay on his stare makes it far less useful than say nunu's iceball for slow, or ashe's arrows, or any number of skills. The MR to AP was kinda useful, but I felt like I should have built him hybrid to take advantage of that, and I don't like hybrid tanking much. Hmm, perhaps I should have gone full AP/CDR with Zhonya's and Abyssal being my main tanky items, Morello's for CDR, Merc Treads/Ionian Lucidity depending on who I'm against, Rabadon's for AP, and B Veil or GA or something else for the last slot. Hmmm, have to think about it some more I guess and then maybe give him another try.
Galio's pretty cool, and is a weird tanky dps because he does magic damage. Stuff like abyssal scepter and rylais are pretty cool on him. His ultimate is pretty nice too, but just make sure your team is paying attention. He also works really well on maxed cdr.
However, you are correct about his other skills. He was nerfed really bad and no one really plays him anymore.
Edit: he's also boss at pushing.
