This demonstrates that there is only a small bond between Olaf and Galio that results in them performing stronger together than without each other.

Galio has a greater difficulty than Olaf. That means Olaf players must be cautious when enlisting Galio comrades to play with, as they will require a greater level of skill to be able to play well with you.
