|-
| ''',''' || Link the previous move into the following move.
|-
| '''(X)''' || A move in brackets must whiff (not hit).<br />Can also mean the move must be Kara Canceled.

|-
| '''cl.''' || Close to opponent.

| '''f.''' || Far from opponent.
|-
| '''j.''' || Jumping move.

'''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 !! Notes
|-
| '''2B > 2A > f.B > 6A''' || 107 || Optimal light starter. 6A will whiff if canceled into from longer ranges. A general rule of thumb is 6A will whiff after a string of 4 light normals. If you find yourself in a range where 6A will not connect, use the below starter.
|-
| 2B > 2A > f.B || 65 || Light starter for when 6A is too far to connect. Can add an additional 2A/2B depending on range. Just about the only things you can combo into from a far 5B are 214A, 236AC, 236236P, and Climax, so keep this in mind in situations where a light normal into 6A won't work.

===Heavy Starters===
{|class="wikitable sortable"
! Combo !! Damage !! Notes
|-
| '''cl.C > 6A''' || 117 || Standard heavy starter and Rock's most consistent combo starter.
|-
| cl.D > 6A || 127 || More damaging than the above at the cost of slightly slower startup on cl.D. Useful for punishes or after landing a deep jump-in.
|-
| cl.B > cl.A, cl.C > 6A || 158 || Link into cl.C > 6A. Optimal heavy starter in terms of damage, though Rock needs to be point blank to get cl.C after cl.A.
|-
| j.D, cl.C/cl.D > 6A || 181/191 || Standard jump-in starter. j.D, cl.A, cl.C > 6A works and does slightly more damage, but is heavily dependent on the angle of your jump-in. Stick to this for consistency.

| 2B*2 > 5B > 6A > 623C ~ AB, 214C || 261 || 270 || 45% || Anywhere || Meterless BNB. Rock can now combo into 6A from f.B, though this doesn't work at longer ranges. Subtract 2B's based on range. If Rock's Brake mechanic is too difficult for you, go for 6A > 214C instead.
| '''Starter''' > 623C ~ AB, 214C || 241/269 || 255/250 || 40% || Anywhere || Meterless BNB after a confirm into 6A. If you have your install up, you can land an OTG 236C after if close enough to the corner.
|-
| '''Starter''' > 623C ~ AB, 236A, 623A || 255/285 || 295/290 || 45% || Corner || Meterless corner BNB. The above combo does more damage if you tack on a super afterward compared to a super cancel from this one, otherwise use this one if you can't/don't want to use a super.
|-
| 2B > 2A > 6A > 632146P || 180 || 105 || 25% || Anywhere || A niche combo that trades damage for a sideswap, useful if you're in the corner. Usually works as 2 light normals into 6A, though cl.A > cl.B and cl.B > cl.A > f.B > 6A works too. Does not work at longer ranges, after '''Heavy Starters''', or after any Heavy normal.

| 632146P ~ AB, 236A, 623C ~ AB, 236A, 623A || 160 || 220 || 45% || Back to Corner || A way to squeeze a little extra damage off a command grab. Otherwise just let the command grab play out to deal 115 damage.

| {6B} 632146P || 115 || 0 || 20% || Anywhere || A kara cancel into Rock's command grab. Doesn't have that much use aside from opening up an opponent who's been conditioned to block. Letting 6B play out without the kara cancel will give you an overhead as well as an air reset if they try to jump out, though this loses to mashing.

| CD, 623BD, 623C ~ AB, 236A, cl.D/2D || 264 || 270 || -25% || Corner || In this particular combo, the cl.D/2D at the end does 1 more damage than ending with 623A and also allows for an air reset situation.

2B > 2A > f.B > 6A

Optimal light starter. 6A will whiff if canceled into from longer ranges. A general rule of thumb is 6A will whiff after a string of 4 light normals. If you find yourself in a range where 6A will not connect, use the below starter.
2B > 2A > f.B
65
Light starter for when 6A is too far to connect. Can add an additional 2A/2B depending on range. Just about the only things you can combo into from a far 5B are 214A, 236AC, 236236P, and Climax, so keep this in mind in situations where a light normal into 6A won't work.

Confirm after an EX counter. The combo will be exactly the same as the 632146AC combo.
Requires you to delay Rage Run's C follow-up to land all 5 hits of Shine Knuckle. Not really worth the extra damage when the above is easier.

Works regardless of the opponent's height when C followup hits, though you lose out on corner carry.

Either super works here. 236236P does slightly more damage, but 236236K grants much better corner carry and okizeme opportunity. In the corner however, the screen carry and oki is less significant so 236236P is the preferred ender there. The damage notation here assumes you've used 236236K.

Midscreen
Rock can only meaningfully use EX moves after Shatter Strikes midscreen if they hit in the air.
Keeping the combo short with 214A tends to improve the scaling in Climax combos. Note that 214P > 236236P can drop when done at too far ranges; use 236236K if you aren't confident in the spacing.
