==Starters==
'''Keep in mind:''' The combos in the "Combos" section have been tested using the first starter in each category '''(the combos in Bold)'''.<br/>
The other starters in each table should also work in each case, but may not.
===Light Starters===
{|class="wikitable sortable"
! Combo !! Damage !! Stun !! Meter Gain !! Notes
|-
| '''2B > 2B > 2A''' || 51 || 60 || 5.5% || Standard low light confirm.  Can be replaced with 2B > cl.B > 2A > 2A for more damage.
|}
===Heavy Starters===
{|class="wikitable sortable"
! Combo !! Damage !! Stun !! Meter Gain !! Notes
|-
| '''cl.D > 6A''' || 122 || 120 || 12.5% || Grounded punish starter.  Can use cl.C instead of cl.D for more consistency in certain situations and worse damage.
|-
| f.C > 6A || 82 || 80 || 8.3% || Spaced punish starter.
|-
| j.X, cl.C > 6A || 176 || 180 || 18% || Standard jump-in starter. Usually more consistent than cl.D due to cl.D pushback. Values calculated using heavy jump normals, but you can use j.A/j.B as well.
|}
===Other Starters===
{|class="wikitable sortable"
! Combo !! Damage !! Stun !! Meter Gain !! Notes
|-
| CD || 75 || 100 || 7.5% || If you trade and don't get knocked down you can still convert off CD.
|-
| cl.D > 6B || 113 || 120 || 12.5% || Leads to his air specials.
|-
| 6B > j.236C || 102 || 80 || 13.5%  || Pressure sequence/frametrap that leads to conversions.  Keep in mind j.236C whiffs after 6B at certain midscreen spacings.
|-
| 6B > j.236AC || 125 || 40 || 4.5% || Same as above.  Sometimes whiffs midscreen after 6B, and sometimes you'll only get 1/2 hits off j.236AC instead of 3, which limits your conversions.
|-
| Counterhit j.CD || 100 || 80 || 8% || Leads to juggles.
|-
| 236CD || 75 || 0 || 0% || Shatter Strike.
|-

|-
| '''Light Starter''' > 214A || 106 || 120 || 16% || Anywhere || Crouching light meterless BNB. Subtract a cr.B or not depending on range.
|-
| '''Heavy Starter''' > 623C, 2D || 266 || 270 || 40% || Anywhere || You can cancel 2D into 214A to build some meter, this makes your okizeme weaker though.
|-
| '''Heavy Starter''' > 214C || 194 || 180 || 25% || Anywhere || The damage and meter gain are significantly less, but this does grant you a safejump.
|-
| cl.D > 6B > j.236C, 214C || 235 || 220 || 33% || Corner || Different oki situation than 623C, 2D.
|-
| CD > (214A), 214C || 143 || 160 || 25% || Midscreen || This combo can work without the 214A whiff, though cancelling CD into 214A makes it safer in general.  If done at CD tip range, 214C will whiff - you can 214A again instead.  You can do this same combo if CD trades, just dash up a little before 214C.  Doesn't work in the corner unless you skip the 214A whiff.
|-
|-
| 2B > 2B > 2A > 214A || 135 || || || || Anywhere || Crouching light meterless BNB. Subtract a cr.B or not depending on range.
| CD, 623C, 2D || 211 || 250 || 33% || Corner || High damage option that ends in a soft knockdown. You can do this same combo if CD trades, just dash up a little before 623C - it might not work if you're too far from your opponent.
|-
|-
| 2B > Rush Autocombo || 148 || || || || Anywhere || Better Shun'ei low confirm, believe it or not.
| Counterhit j.CD, 214C || 176 || 140 || 20% || Anywhere
|-
|-

| Counterhit j.CD > j.236C, 623C, 2D || 301 || 270 || 40% || Corner || Even harder to counterhit confirm.
|-
|-
| CD, 214C || 143 || || || || Anywhere || Don't special cancel the CD, else it will whiff. If you do end up special cancelling, you can land a 214A after the 214C recovers for less damage.
| Counterhit j.CD > j.236C, 214C || 229 || 180 || 30% || Corner || Variation on the above combo that sacrifices damage/stun/meter gain for 214C okizeme.
|-
|-
| (j.X) > c.C > 6B > j.236C, 214A || 212 || || ||  || Corner ||

|-
| '''Light Starter''' > 236AC, 623C, 2D || 247 || 210 || 0.5 || 30% || Anywhere || Soft knockdown but higher damage/stun/meter build. If you aren't point blank or in the corner then 2D will whiff - end with 214A (or 214C instead of 623C, if necessary) in those situations instead.
|-
| '''Light Starter'''/'''Heavy Starter''' > 623AC, 623C, 214C || 260/346 || 200/260 || 0.5 || 35%/40% || Anywhere || Stronger confirm, but the Light Starter has more difficult execution. You can use 2B>2B>62A>3AC as a shortcut.

|-
|-

| CD > (214A), 623AC, 623C, 214C || 284 || 240 || 0.5 || 40% || Anywhere || This combo won't work if you're cornered and too close to the opponent when you hit CD, and sometimes you'll hit CD at tip range near the corner where 623AC won't combo after your 214A.  Sometimes you can pick up with 623AC but won't be able to get 623C after, go for 214C after 623AC in these situations instead.  You can also do this combo in the corner if your CD trades, although you might have to dash up a little bit before 623AC.  You can hit confirm CD when you're near the corner and skip the 214A buffer on hit or combo into 214A instead to avoid whiffing 623AC and giving up your combo.

|-
| Counterhit j.CD, 623AC, 214C || 269 || 140 || 0.5 || 20% || Anywhere || Harder confirm than above.  You can check your 623AC spacing to see if you need to use this route or not.
|-

|-
| 6B > j.236AC, 214C || 200 || 100 || 0.5 || 16% || Anywhere || You need to get all 3 hits of j.236AC, if you only get 2 hits off j.236AC then 214C will whiff.  This combo always works in the corner.
|-

|-

|-

, 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 Stun Meter Gain Notes
2B > 2B > 2A 51 60 5.5% Standard low light confirm. Can be replaced with 2B > cl.B > 2A > 2A for more damage.

Heavy Starters

Combo Damage Stun Meter Gain Notes
cl.D > 6A 122 120 12.5% Grounded punish starter. Can use cl.C instead of cl.D for more consistency in certain situations and worse damage.
f.C > 6A 82 80 8.3% Spaced punish starter.
j.X, cl.C > 6A 176 180 18% Standard jump-in starter. Usually more consistent than cl.D due to cl.D pushback. Values calculated using heavy jump normals, but you can use j.A/j.B as well.

Other Starters

Combo Damage Stun Meter Gain Notes
CD 75 100 7.5% If you trade and don't get knocked down you can still convert off CD.
cl.D > 6B 113 120 12.5% Leads to his air specials.
6B > j.236C 102 80 13.5% Pressure sequence/frametrap that leads to conversions. Keep in mind j.236C whiffs after 6B at certain midscreen spacings.
6B > j.236AC 125 40 4.5% Same as above. Sometimes whiffs midscreen after 6B, and sometimes you'll only get 1/2 hits off j.236AC instead of 3, which limits your conversions.
Counterhit j.CD 100 80 8% Leads to juggles.
236CD 75 0 0% Shatter Strike.
6A 60 90 6% Shun'ei's reactable overhead.

Combos

Note: For combos that use non-canceled j.236C to juggle in the corner, you need to use a Tiger Knee motion. (2369C)

Rush Auto Combo

Builds 9% meter and deals 45 stun before combo ender.

Combo Damage Meter cost notes
cl.A > A > A > B 125 0 Rush combo ending in a special move.
cl.A > A > A > C 230 1 Rush combo ending in a super.
cl.A > A > A > D 350 2 Rush combo ending in a Max super.
cl.A > A > A > A 443 3 Rush combo ending in a Climax super.

Meterless

Combo Damage Stun Meter Gain Location notes
Light Starter > 214A 106 120 16% Anywhere Crouching light meterless BNB. Subtract a cr.B or not depending on range.
Heavy Starter > 623C, 2D 266 270 40% Anywhere You can cancel 2D into 214A to build some meter, this makes your okizeme weaker though.
Heavy Starter > 214C 194 180 25% Anywhere The damage and meter gain are significantly less, but this does grant you a safejump.
cl.D > 6B > j.236C, 214C 235 220 33% Corner Different oki situation than 623C, 2D.
CD > (214A), 214C 143 160 25% Midscreen This combo can work without the 214A whiff, though cancelling CD into 214A makes it safer in general. If done at CD tip range, 214C will whiff - you can 214A again instead. You can do this same combo if CD trades, just dash up a little before 214C. Doesn't work in the corner unless you skip the 214A whiff.
CD, 623C, 2D 211 250 33% Corner High damage option that ends in a soft knockdown. You can do this same combo if CD trades, just dash up a little before 623C - it might not work if you're too far from your opponent.
Counterhit j.CD, 214C 176 140 20% Anywhere
Counterhit j.CD, 623C, 2D 252 230 33% Corner Harder to counterhit confirm than the above combo.
Counterhit j.CD > j.236C, 623C, 2D 301 270 40% Corner Even harder to counterhit confirm.
Counterhit j.CD > j.236C, 214C 229 180 30% Corner Variation on the above combo that sacrifices damage/stun/meter gain for 214C okizeme.
6B > j.236C, 214C 174 220 22.5% Corner Meterless conversion off frametrap in the corner.

EX

Combo Damage Stun Meter cost Meter Gain Location notes
Light Starter > 236AC, 214C 183 120 0.5 20% Anywhere Easy to execute and grants a safejump.
Light Starter > 236AC, 623C, 2D 247 210 0.5 30% Anywhere Soft knockdown but higher damage/stun/meter build. If you aren't point blank or in the corner then 2D will whiff - end with 214A (or 214C instead of 623C, if necessary) in those situations instead.
Light Starter/Heavy Starter > 623AC, 623C, 214C 260/346 200/260 0.5 35%/40% Anywhere Stronger confirm, but the Light Starter has more difficult execution. You can use 2B>2B>62A>3AC as a shortcut.
Heavy Starter > 236CD, cl.D > 6A > 623C, 214A 332 380 0.5 (1) 55% Anywhere Meter positive. Need at least 1 bar for Shatter Strike.
cl.D > 6B > j.236C, 623AC, 623C, 214C 376 300 0.5 55% Corner Meter positive.
Light Starter/Heavy Starter > 623AC, j.236C, 623C, 2D 297/385 280/310 0.5 40%/45% Corner Optimal corner combo. More technical and difficult than the above combo.
CD > (214A), 623AC, 623C, 214C 284 240 0.5 40% Anywhere This combo won't work if you're cornered and too close to the opponent when you hit CD, and sometimes you'll hit CD at tip range near the corner where 623AC won't combo after your 214A. Sometimes you can pick up with 623AC but won't be able to get 623C after, go for 214C after 623AC in these situations instead. You can also do this combo in the corner if your CD trades, although you might have to dash up a little bit before 623AC. You can hit confirm CD when you're near the corner and skip the 214A buffer on hit or combo into 214A instead to avoid whiffing 623AC and giving up your combo.
CD > (214A), 623AC, j.236C, 623C, 2D 321 290 0.5 45% Corner Technical TK Blau Wing optimal. You can also do this combo if your CD trades, although you might have to dash up a little before 623AC.
Counterhit j.CD, 623AC, 214C 269 140 0.5 20% Anywhere Harder confirm than above. You can check your 623AC spacing to see if you need to use this route or not.
Counterhit j.CD, 623AC, 623C, 214C 337 220 0.5 40% Anywhere Even harder confirm.
Counterhit j.CD, 623AC, j.236C, 623C, 2D 380 260 0.5 45% Corner
Counterhit j.CD > j.236C, 623AC, 623C, 214C 381 260 0.5 45% Corner Hardest confirm.
6B > j.236C, 623AC, 623C, 214C 326 220 0.5 45% Corner Optimal conversion off 6B > j.236C in the corner.
6B > j.236AC, 214C 200 100 0.5 16% Anywhere You need to get all 3 hits of j.236AC, if you only get 2 hits off j.236AC then 214C will whiff. This combo always works in the corner.
6B > j.236AC, 623C, 2D 253 190 0.5 30% Corner
236CD, 214C 155 60 0.5 (1) 12.5% Anywhere Shatter Strike conversion. Shatter Strike refunds half a bar on hit.
236CD, 623C, 2D 236 150 0.5 (1) 25% Anywhere

Light Starter > 214A > 236236K 258 120 1 16% Anywhere Alternative route if you want to sacrifice damage/stun/meter build for a sideswitch and 236236K okizeme.
Heavy Starter > 623C, 214A > 236236K 405 260 1 40% Anywhere

cl.D > 6B > j.236C, 623AC, 623C, 236AC, cl.C 421 310 1 45% Corner Alternate combo with 6B. Against Meitenkun, Yuri, and Chris, cl.C will whiff. In that case, use the above combo instead or the standard 236AC, 623AC, 623C, 214C route.
CD > (214A), 623AC, 623C, 214AC 312 180 1 30% Anywhere If you're too far to link 623AC into 623C, you can do 623AC, delayed 214AC instead. You can do this combo if CD trades, skip the 214A whiff and dash up a little before 623AC.
CD > (214A), 214C > 236236K 295 160 1 25% Midscreen Alternative route that sacrifices damage/stun for sideswitch/meter build/236236K okizeme. Don't forget you might have to opt for 214A instead of 214C if you're too far. You can do this same combo if CD trades, you just might have to dash up a little before 214C. If you aren't confident you can run up and hit 214C, then you can just go straight into 236236K instead for more consistency.
CD > (214A), 623AC, j.236AC, 623C, 214C 322 240 1 40% Corner Technical corner route that ends in 214C knockdown. Your execution needs to be solid or you won't be able to juggle with 214C at the end. You can do this same combo if your CD trades, you just have to skip the 214A whiff and dash up a little before 623AC.
CD, 623C, 214A > 236236K or P 341/333 240 1 35% Corner You can do this same combo if CD trades, you just might have to dash up a little before 623C.

6B > j.236AC, 214AC 221 40 1 4.5% Anywhere Need at least 2 hits of j.236AC to combo. If you only get 1 hit of j.236AC then this combo won't work.
6B > j.236AC, 623AC, 623A, 623C, 2D 365 270 1 40% Corner
6A > 236236K or P 192/186 90 1 6% Anywhere Conversion off of Shun'ei's reactable overhead.

CD > (214A), 623AC, j.236AC, 623C, 214AC 344 180 1.5 30% Corner Dubious route that allows you access to auto-timed spaced safejump oki, which can be slightly better than 236236P safejump oki in the corner. You can safely ignore this route unless you're really trying to get 214AC okizeme.
CD > (214A), 623AC, j.236C, 623C, 214A > 236236K or P 425/419 280 1.5 50% Corner A little bit easier than the optimal listed below.
