Combos

Notes

623P in juggle combos

  • Joe's most damaging and stun-heavy corner combos involve 623P, usually with a single mash extension, hitting 3 times total, with the opponent bouncing up after each hit.
  • This is done by inputting 623P, which causes 2 hits, then inputting PPP while the 2nd hit is connecting. You can also just mash right up until the 2nd hit connects and Joe should stop after the 3rd hit.


  • Combos that end with 623P~PPPx2~214A are done by mashing 623P until the very last hit, then late-canceling that hit into 214A.
  • This will result the rapid punch hitting a total of 5 times, with 3 distinct bounces: 1~2, 3, 4, 5 > 214A.


  • All juggle combos listed should not require any manual timing outside of the ~214A ender; i.e. no manual delays are required. (WIP editing/adding combos for most practical routes)
