I'm curious why you think he loses to Frost, GL, & Black Adam? Not saying you're wrong just wondering why they have an advantage over him.

Frost can keep Shazam out for free with iceberg and daggers. She can catch his dashes pretty easily and it makes teleport damn near useless. It's definitely not unwinnable but it takes a hell of a lot of patience and good reads.
GL is a death mu honestly. People always argue that Shazam bodies him up close but that's only on a hard knockdown. B1 stuffs out literally all of Shazam's options and GL can zone Shazam out pretty easily as well. Trait + minigun = Shazam just having to hold that.
I'm not TOO experienced in the BA matchup but from the experience I do have I feel as though Shazam loses it. It just doesn't feel like it'd be a 5-5. Maybe I just have trouble fighting Adam.

I want to say Wonder Woman wins this 6-4, but with a lack of matchup experience and having never placed my opinion is irrelevant :DOGE
See, I think it's also a 4-6. Wowo gets free punishes on most of Shazam's options as well as having the advantage on footsies. I was looking over the chart and I felt like there were too many mu's that were a disadvantage so I changed it to 5-5.

We'll burn you all—that is your fate!
I mean if you were able to have the power to yell words and become a magic dude with magic power would you not be able to defeat everyone?

Change something you don't think is right then...if you think it's a 4-6 then put that lol

It's ok, he can afford to lose a few matchups, he's a shitter remember? ;)

Chipotle and Olive Garden are NOT authentic
What is your reasoning for the batgirl matchup? I truly believe its a 6-4 due to footsie advantage and being a total killjoy on knockdown untechable or otherwise.

Honestly I just don't feel there's anything that sways the matchup in one direction or the other. Shazam outfootsies her but at the same time BG can punish things like torpedo with b2u3, at the end of the day both characters have tools that can handle the other. Even 5-5 imo no advantage to either side.

Lol, like I said this isn't the be all end all for Shazam mu threads. I'm not too experienced in the BA mu so I'm not gonna speak on it like I am and feed you guys false information. Maybe someone else can provide feedback.

Dam no tag for me. I see how it is.

*buzzer sounds* EH UH
5-5 my man. Batgirl doesn't have better footsies than Shazam, if anything they have equal chance within footsie range due to both having unsafe overhead launchers. Shazam has an invincible teleport on wakeup, where you getting this magical oki from? Lol

Uh....remind me, what is torpedo on block? Is it not -10ish? But yes definitely 5-5 else I would've mentioned that too, BG & WoWo are my babes :cool:
