Starters

Keep in mind: The combos in the "Combos" section have been tested using the first starter in each category (the combos in Bold).

Light Starters

Combo Damage Notes
2B > 2A 38 Standard low confirm. Works in practically any situation.
2B > 2A > 2A 60 Bonus damage low confirm. Must be relatively close. Unreliable after a jump-in.
2B > cl.B > 2A 65 Highest damage low confirm. Must be very close.

Heavy Starters

Combo Damage Notes
cl.C(1) > 6B 96 Standard, reliable heavy starter. Works in practically any situation.
cl.B, cl.C(1) > 6B 121 Light link into cl.C. With good reactions, you can confirm into cl.C. Can be tricky to connect after a jump-in.
2C > 6B 131 Most damaging combo starter. Requires a deep jump-in due to 2C's slower startup.
