Shazam has seen a huge resurgence lately. He is still not as strong as he was when I fell in love with him, but he is still a very good pick. Also remember to count to 3 when using your skills. Every third skill is in empowered. Your ult may not be empowered, but it will count as a charge to it.
Why Shazam on Coast City?: Shazam is a solid pick for Coast City because he has a good jungle clear, and unique crowd control. He is also a solid split pusher when it comes to mid and late game strategy. The best reason he is a great pick for Coast City is his Ultimate. You can disable a whole team when ulting into a teamfight.
There is a jungle explanation attached in with my main Coast City guide. If need any info on Coast City, it is all there: https://www.dawnbase.com/guides/832-General-Dycers-Coast-City-Guide
Start the game with Mar RIng T2 and2 health pots. If you decide to take super strength instead of cameras, remember to use it to help invade. Leave Mar ring at T2 and immediately build Cosmic Belt T2. I now build Energy Lance T3 before grabbing some more health and armor. You want Mirror Master's because the armor will help negate some of the reflect damage you receive while reflecting a massive amount of damage onto your enemy compared to what you receive when you have your empowered W active. Now choose an attack armor item from the ones listed. They give you a lot of health, a lot of armor and a lot of CDR. You need those stats right about now.
Most games I cap Energy Lance now and move onto the optional items. Tailor the options to what you need in the game you are playing. Going full damage when you need to be a little tanky is a bad idea. If the game goes on and you have 5 full items with a lot of extra money, sell your T2 belt for Book of Eternity,or an armor item.
When ganking, lead into it with your Empowered Q when the enemy is fully commited to attacking your lane. You must hit them, or you will have wasted your time. Once they are stunned, you have Psy Assault, and your empowered E (you get it up after 2 skills) that will slow their escape enough for a high damage carry to focus them out a good amount of the time early game.
Team Fights: I would begin the fight by using your empowered Q to stun the most of place squishy. I would then W, activate your helm and ult in. I would then instantly use E to slow any chance of escape. As long as your team knows how to react to this sudden burst of CC, it will result in a fast enemy team wipe in a 5v5.
When using your ult, strike as many enemies as possible to cease a lot of damage onto your team for a decent amount of time in a teamfight.
I hope you enjoyed this guide, and that you have much luck with him on Coast City. Shazam is a a strong pick that can be game changing when played right.
where the FUCK is the 'guide'?
