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 > 2A > 6A	78	Standard low light confirm.
2B > 2B > 6A	69	Less damage, but 2B 2A can whiff at farther ranges, and 2B 2B gives you a bigger range to confirm your low poke.
cl.A > cl.C > 6A	131	Point-blank light starter. Does far more damage than the other light starters, but is much harder to confirm.

Heavy Starters

Combo	Damage	Notes
j.D > cl.C > 6A	176	Standard jump-in starter.
j.D > cl.D > 6A	186	High damage jump-in starter. Harder to confirm than the standard starter.
cl.D > C	127	Target combo starter. Goes into juggle combos.

Other Starters

Meterless

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
Light Starter/Heavy Starter > 63214A	180/278	85/190	-	~25%	Anywhere	Preferred light confirm, also gives a safejump after with dash into immediate neutral hop j.D. Note that since both Dolores' light and heavy starters route into 6A, you can often get the same confirms for both. Damage/stun will be listed for light starter first, and then heavy.
Light Starter > 236A	133/231	165/270	-	~15%	Anywhere	Worst damage of her meterless light combos (though 236A does give the most stun since it's not a grab like her other enders). Worth learning because there are ranges where 6A will hit but any cancels into 4214D or 63214A will whiff, especially after starters like 2B 2B 6A, and there 236A is the best thing you get. You still get pretty safe fullscreen pressure with 236D meaty if you want it.
Light Starter > 236A, 4214B	197	165	-	~30%	Corner	In the corner, Dolores can link B Nesh after 236A (range permitting, this will drop after j.D > cl.C > 6A, for example)
cl.D > C > 236B > 4214D	274	190	-	~35%	Midscreen	Dolores' Target Combo puts the opponent in a juggle state, allowing her to link after 236B. Normally saved for punishes since cl.D > C is unsafe unless cancelled into teleport.
cl.D > C > 236B > 236A	240	270	-	~25%	Midscreen	Lower damage, but higher stun (can also be easier to link).
cl.D > C > delayed 236A > 4214D	274	190	-	~35%	Corner	In the corner, Target Combo > 236B does not work, but 236A does if you delay it slightly.
