Quantum's Take

Shazam was not well-regarded earlier in the beta testing for the game, but that was mostly because many players didn't have him at high star levels. Now that the game has matured, Shazam is heavily regarded as the best early tank for a Superman hypercarry team for fresh accounts. He's more of a tool for lite spenders and above, because you need all of his skills unlocked at a minimum for usability, but don't sleep on Shazam's taunt and revive if you need a big frontline for Training Simulator and even early PvP before you have access to better champions.
