Starters

Keep in mind: The combos in the "Combos" section have been tested using the first starter in each category (the combos in Bold).
The other starters in each table should also work in each case, but may not.

Chizuru's specials typically are able to combo from both her lights and heavies. Because of this, most of her combos will simply say Starter, while showing damage from her bolded Light and Heavy Starters below.

Light Starters

Combo	Damage	Notes
2B > 2A > 5B	65	Standard low light confirm.
2B > 2A > 2A > 5B	85	Point-blank use only.

Heavy Starters

Combo	Damage	Notes
cl.C/2C > 6A	112	Standard heavy starter. Consistent after jump ins.
cl.D > 6A	122	Stronger, ideal for punishes. Has less range than cl.C making it harder to use.
cl.A, cl.D > 6A	141	Light-heavy frame trap/link, but requires near point-blank range.
6B	60	6B by itself can cancel into specials. Can be a niche punish option.

Other Starters

Combo	Damage	Notes
CD	75
3D	60	Quick Max starter.

(Note: 'Other Starters' won't be referenced in the 'Combos' section.)

Combos

General Notes: Combos that end in 214D can omit the 214K ender for a safe jump set-up.

Rush Auto Combo

Combo	Damage	Meter cost	notes
cl.A > A > A > B	125	0	Rush combo ending in a special move
cl.A > A > A > C	197	1	Rush combo ending in a super
cl.A > A > A > D	325	2	Rush combo ending in a Max super
cl.A > A > A > A	456	3	Rush combo ending in a Climax super

Meterless

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
Starter > 236A	120/170	115/150	0	18.5%/23%	Anywhere	Easy confirm, leads to supers.
Starter > 214D ~ K ~ 214K	156/209	175/210	0	23%/27.5%	Anywhere	Stronger confirm, ends in a hard knockdown. You'll want to hit K as soon as you finish inputting 214D. If Chizuru is close enough you can use 214C instead for more corner carry.
Heavy Starter > 623C	244	170	0	35.5%	Anywhere	Max damage, but can whiff at further ranges. Won't work after three light normals, only two.
CD > 214B ~ 214K	150	200	0	23.5%	Anywhere	By using the B version you can safely cancel CD on block while getting a small combo if it hits. If the CD was blocked, press K so the clone hits the opponent while leaving you safe. If the CD hits, let the clone attack naturally, then do the 214K follow-up. Sometimes the clone won't reach far enough to connect the first hit, but you can still get the follow-up. If you're close to the corner you may have to manually cause the clone to attack.
CD, 6B > 623C	211	200	0	37.5%	Corner

EX

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
Starter > 214AC ~ P, 6B > 214D ~ K ~ 214K	261/321	215/250	0.5	29%/33.5%	Anywhere	Standard 0.5 bar combo for any starter. Note: for many combos with this structure, you can end with 623C for more damage, but this will not work with the example light starter midscreen, as the opponent will be too far away. This always works in the corner however.
CD, 214AC, 6B > 623C	257	200	0.5	37.5%	Midscreen	Note: most combos starting from CD will not work if Chizuru's back is too close to the corner.
CD, 6B > 214BD ~ K ~ 214K, 623C	272	200	0.5	37.5%	Corner

Starter > 214C ~ P > 2141236A	244/302	125/160	1	14%/18.5%	Anywhere	Simple combo if you want to lock your opponent's specials. 236A can also be used instead of 214C. It could be helpful to input the P follow up as 214P for an easier super cancel. Also note: Most combos ending in the seal super(2141236P) will allow for an OTG 236C ender in the corner.

Starter > 214AC ~ P, 6B > 236A > 2141236C	334/399	155/190	1.5	24.5%/29%	Anywhere	Trades damage to seal the opponent.
