Aww shit <REDACTED DUE TO FEELINGS> its Shapzam
Shazam and doomsday are funny guys.
Both rely on oki game and both can escape it very easily.
Just his up shoulder wakeup is whats giving me problems. How does one punish this? I normaly dash under his sheeva like move, and I just pray when he does meter shoulder, but how do you punish his up shoulder wakeup?
Every wake up except teleport you can jump over and punish. As for teleport I usually bait and 22 pressure.
I use to do that but a lot of batgirls lately have been doing double teleports on me in mid crossup. So now I just 22 pressure
Thats the highest damage combo, but id opt for slightly less damage into a vortex setup from AC:
So you teleport as he does his wakeup and you dash towards and punish or torpedo?
If you see him teleport into the air, you can just teleport/phase away and j2~f22 bnb punish. it does a lot more damage considering the scaling on shazams 22
do you guys know if it's possible to wake up teleport GLs b12? it seems to catch me every time
Rush him down, do not give him a chance. Watch out for wakeup cage which you can whiff punish. From full screen I tend to jump in to avoid lightning, although he can use mb lightning, I just take the risk. When you are in, NEVER block low, all his damage comes from overheads. The main reason why this matchup is not ridiculously in black adams favour, is that he does not have a straight projectile. If he dive kicks, you can HM punish or if you're not confident, you can go for a sweep or d1 into special. The key is to not let him start zoning pressure.
When he has trait up poke him don't be brave he'll get you for 50% if you are not careful , approach him with dashes only when he zones fullscreen(Shazam has a pretty damn long dash and his jump is very floaty) , when close never block low unless he's a sweep happy one - he has overheads but no low starting strings , when in sweep distances always do jump ins with 2 he can do nothing but block However you should time your jumps because of his Lightning Cage (respect it's authoritah !) Air to Air use 2 I would have said 1 for it's active frames but it's short range
What the best way to end my combos against BA
whatever keeps you in sweep distance . you shouldn't use MB Atlas Torpedo to end combos ( if he's like 3% away from death go for it ) as it throws him very far , however MB AT will most likely land you near an interactible so do whatever you think best at the time Definetely end combos with Herculean Might -example fwd2,2 xx HM xx bck 3 j2,fwd2,2,3 xx HM (41-42%) - as it does the best damage and leaves you at a decent range for another carefully timed jump-in . when you have cornered him do something like this - 1) 1,1,2,4 2)fwd2,2,3,4 so you get him to panic because he has limited option when in the corner and you can get some easy 60% corner damage or at least some good chip go for fwd2,2,3 because 3 is 0 on block . also when you have no meter end combos that throw the opponent far away like that 1)1,1,2 xx Advancing Mercury Storm 2) 2,2, xx AMS . Remember Black Adam must not be very far
in this matchup I often get to the last second/last pixel. How do you approach this MU?
Oh no plz be thorough this is awesome stuff thanks man
