[[The King of Fighters XV#Controls|Notation Guide]]
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.
* Anywhere that uses 2B 2A can also use cl.C/2C/cl.D 6A for the starter.
===Heavy Starters===
* Up close you can usually get two 2Bs before needing to go to 2A to cancel. If you are pushed out a bit or start with a jumpin, you may want to just use one 2B for consistency.

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.
