Combo Notation Guide

Notation	Meaning
X Starter	Use the corresponding starter(s) from the 'Starters' section of this page.
>	Cancel the previous move into the following move. If preceded by a move in brackets, must cancel the start of the preceding move (AKA a 'Kara Cancel').
,	Link the previous move into the following move.
(X)	A move in brackets must whiff (not hit). Can also mean the move must be Kara Canceled.
~	Cancel the previous special into the following special.
cl.	Close to opponent.
f.	Far from opponent.
j.	Jumping move.
AA	Anti-air. Hit the opponent while they're mid-air.
[X]	Hold input briefly.
P & K	P and K each denote "Any Punch (A or C)" and "Any Kick (B or D)" respectively.
X/Y	Do either X move or Y move in a combo (Both final damage & stun values will be shown).
X * N {X} * N	Repeat 'X' input 'N' amount of times. Multiple inputs will be bundled into "{}".

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.

Light Starters

Combo	Damage	Notes
2B > 2B	58	Standard low light confirm. (Some combos allow a third '2B').

Heavy Starters

Combo	Damage	Notes
j.C/D > cl.C > 6B	172	Standard jump-in starter. f.C(1) allows for same combos which can be a saving grace if barely outside of cl.C range.
2B > cl.B > 6A	85	Low light confirm that allows for 'Heavy Starter' Combos. Must be close to opponent.
2C > 6B	108	Next best option after jump-in. Combos from further than cl.C thanks to the second hit of 2C. Use when too far for cl.C.
cl.D > 6B	118	Most damaging combo starter.

Other Starters

Combo	Damage	Notes
CD	75
6B > MAX	45	Overhead starter. Not an overhead when canceled into.
3D > MAX	60	Low profile slide starter. Good range and goes under a lot of things, including many projectiles.

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