(Note that this comes from a person who hasn't actually used Galaxy yet)
I wonder how much people's opinions of Galaxy are colored due to the fact that he was extremely common on a packed 4TLMS server last night. Currently to me it seems like he's in a weird place. For some classes, getting caught in a black hole is pretty much death, for others it just deals a ton of damage, but some classes absolutely laugh at him. Pretty much any class with a movement ability (think Copywep slide/dash/tackle) can escape the suction easily and pursue the Galaxy who has limited options of what to do at that point (unless the ram is effective, haven't seen it used for actual ramming that much).
Before I get a concrete opinion on him I want to experience him some more (especially in a less chaotic setting) but at this point there's two annoying issues I have with him. The first is that as mentioned before, allies' black holes can affect you, which can either drag you out from a good position or trap you in a relative place for an enemy. The second is that I think the fire rate may be a little too high, because multiple times as a class without an escape option, I've gotten trapped in one black hole and then the enemy Galaxy plants another near by so that even if the damage doesn't stack it sucks you in and finishes you off when the first one ends and there is little to nothing (that I can see) that you can do about it.
