The King of Fighters XV/Robert Garcia/Combos

Combos

Unless stated otherwise, assume cl.D is hitting for both hits.

When doing midscreen confirms from heavies, Robert can generally get more stun with comparable damage by doing Shatter Strike cancels and using the combo route 0.5 meter below the amount of meter you intended to spend.

Rush Auto Combo

Meterless: Ends with 646K. (164 DMG)
1 Meter: Ends with 2363214P. (233 DMG)
2 Meter: Ends with 2363214AC. (335 DMG)
3 Meter: Ends with 2141236CD. (441 DMG)

Meterless

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
2B*3 > 214D	184	210	0	25%	Anywhere	Light confirm. You must cancel the 2B fast for the 214D to connect.
2B*3 > 214B	164	190	0	25%	Anywhere	Using 214B as your ender leaves them standing, which can make it easier to threaten with command grab after.
cl.D > 6B > 214D	224	220	0	30%	Anywhere	Heavy starter combo.
cl.D > 6A > j.214B, 623C	271	280	0	40%	Corner	Corner combo. If you try to confirm this and it's blocked, j.214B is safe barring some command grabs, so it's better to cancel. 6A by itself would leave you at universal throw range.
CD, run, 6B > 236C	178	190	0	20%	Anywhere	Uncancelled CD confirm.
CD > 236A	130	160	0	20%	Non-Corner	A useful cancel that also confirms. This will lead into supers with meter as well.
CD, 6B > 236A, 623C	261	290	0	40%	Corner	Corner CD confirm. CD is safe enough on it's own, so try to avoid cancelling into fireball near the corner so you can get this confirm. The range on 6B is large enough to where this can connect even if you're a bit of a distance from the corner. When cancelling 6B into 236, if you get 623 too often, input 236 as 2369 instead.
j.214B/D, 623A	126	140	0	25%	Corner	If the j.214B/D hits very low, you can even get a 623C after.

EX

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
(2B*3)/(cl.D > 6B) > 214BD, 6B > 646B/D	265/310	220/230	0.5	30%	Anywhere	Robert's light and heavy confirms are the same midscreen. The meter build and corner carry is quite nice. You can cancel into 623C at the end instead for just 2 less damage and virtually the same oki and meter build, but could save you on time, since the animation for 646B/D is so long.
cl.C > 6A > j.214BD, run, 623C	297	200	0.5	30%	Anywhere	6A > j.214BD only works midscreen after a close C normal or one hit of cl.D. This combo is not as strong as the 214BD confirm, but will lead to stronger combos with more meter to work with.
2B*3 > 214BD, 6B > 236A, 623C	293	280	0.5	45%	Corner	Light corner confirm. Close to refunding the bar used.
cl.D > 6A > j.214B/D, 214BD, 6B > 236A, 623C	384	370	0.5	55%	Corner	Meter positive corner combo.
CD, run, 6B > 214BD, run, 623C	261	230	0.5	30%	Anywhere	Midscreen CD confirm.
41236BD, 623A	138	60	0.5	20%	Anywhere	Some extra damage after an EX command grab.
j.214BD, 623C	206	100	0.5	25%	Anywhere	The amount of times you will be blowing meter on j.214BD are rare, but if you do land one, you can always get a 623C after. Sometimes you can get a 6B in there too, but it's height dependent.
2C anti air > 646BD	202	70	0.5	10%	Anywhere	If you're quick you can turn anti air normals into extra damage.
CD, 6B > 236A, cl.C > 646BD > 623A	332	320	0.5	45%	Corner

1 Bar

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
2B*3 > 214BD, run, CD > 646BD	298	190	1	20%	Anywhere	You can use cl.C instead of CD for a slightly easier combo for 3 less damage. If you end up in the corner you can add on a 623A.
cl.D > 6B > 623A > 236214A/C	344	160	1	30%	Anywhere	Simple super confirm. Does more damage than the light confirm combo.
cl.C > 6A > j.214BD, 6B > 214BD, 646B/D	380	130	1	35%	Anywhere	Optimal heavy confirm.
2B*3 > 214BD, 6B > 236A, cl.C > 646BD, 623A	373	310	1	45%	Corner
cl.D > 6A > 214B, 214BD > 6B > 236A, cl.C > 646BD, 623A	464	400	1	55%	Corner
CD > 236A, 641236C	274	160	1	20%	Non-Corner	CD confirm. Easy to hit confirm.
CD, run, 6B > 214BD, run, cl.C > 646BD	323	200	1	25%	Anywhere	CD is inconsistent after a juggled 214BD, so cl.C will suffice.
CD, 6B > 236A, 214BD, 236A, cl.C > 646BD, 623A	411	380	1	50%	Corner	In corner CD combos like this, against smaller characters, you'll have to omit the first 236A and cancel straight into the 214BD.
236CD, 6B > 646B/D	245	30	1	75%	Anywhere	Shatter Strike confirm. If the Shatter Strike hits airborne, use 623C instead for consistency. In general your Shatter Strike combos will match your uncancelled CD combos.
236CD, 6B > 236A, 623C	297	190	1	80%	Corner	Your corner Shatter Strike combos will match your CD corner combos.
41236BD, 623AC	161	0	1	0%	Anywhere
41236BD, 2B > 646BD, 2A	203	60	1	5%	Corner	For some reason, you cannot juggle 623A after the 646BD here.
2B*3/cl.D > 6B > 214BD, 6B > 646B/D > 236214A/C	364/409	120/130	1.5	35%	Anywhere	Cancelling 646B/D into ranbu super has a strange window that's later than expected. Be sure to wait after the 15th hit.
cl.C > 6A > j.214BD, 6B > 236A > 236214A/C	447	190	1.5	20%	Anywhere	Max midscreen damage.
2B*3 > 214BD, 6B > 236AC, 236A, cl.C > 646BD, 623A	407	310	1.5	45%	Corner	Only a slight gain over the 1 meter combo.
cl.D > 6A > j.214BD, 236A, 214BD, 6A > 236A, cl.C > 646BD, 623A	539	380	1.5	55%	Corner
CD, run, 6B > 214BD, 646B/D > 236214A/C	359	130	1.5	30%	Anywhere
CD, j.214BD, 236A, 214BD, 6A > 236A, cl.C > 646BD, 623A	469	380	1.5	50%	Corner	Max damage from a corner CD. The further back your opponent was from the corner when the CD hits, the higher you can do the j.214BD. You may need to do it higher for the extra horizontal range. These combos do not work after a Shatter Strike.
CD, 6B > 236A, 214BD, 236AC, 236A, cl.C > 646BD, 623A	440	380	1.5	50%	Corner	Alternate CD route which works from Shatter Strike as well. Remember to omit 236A on smaller characters.
41236BD, 623A > 236214A/C	258	60	1.5	20%	Anywhere

(QM) 2B*3/(cl.D > 6B) > BC, cl.D > 6A > j.214BD, 236AC, 236A, 623C > 236214A/C	454/510	310/320	2	10%	Corner	1500 Max Guage corner combo.
CD > 236A, 641236AC	386	160	2	15%	Non-Corner	Weaker but safe CD confirm.
CD, 6B > 236A, 214BD, 236A, cl.C > 646BD, 623A > 236214A/C	510	380	2	50%	Corner
2B*3 > 214BD, 6B > 646B/D > 236214AC	432/477	120	2.5	35%	Anywhere	This combo is only marginally stronger than your 2 Bar combo with Quick Max, but much harder as the cancel from 646B/D must be done as late as possible, around the apex of your opponent's launch, or else the super will whiff. Overall not worth it but could be useful to know the cancel.
cl.C > 6A > j.214BD, 6B > 236A > 236214AC	551	190	2.5	25%	Non-Corner	Robert's only efficient use of 2.5 meter midscreen. Otherwise use your 2 meter combos by themselves or after a Shatter Strike cancel.
2B*3 > 214BD, 6B > 236A, cl.C > 646BD, 623A > 236214A/C	472	310	2.5	45%	Corner

CD, run, 6B > 214BD, 236C > 641236AC	409	190	2.5	20%	Anywhere	In high scaling situations, 641236AC does more damage than 236214AC.

Microdash 623A/C is technically possible instead of 6B after j.214BD, but the timing to both connect the 623A/C low enough and properly cancel into the Climax is not worth it for the extra 6 damage.
(QM) 2B*3/(cl.D > 6B) > BC, cl.C > 6B > 623A > 236214A/C > 214236CD	565/624	250/260	3	10%	Anywhere	1250 Max confirm. Using cl.C instead of cl.D after the Quick Max saves Max timer to fit the super and Climax. At 1500 Max Guage, use cl.D after the Quick Max instead.
(QM) 2B*3 > BC, cl.C > 6A > j.214BD, 236A, 623C > 214236CD	549	310	3	10%	Corner	1000 corner Max confirm.
2B*3 > 214BD, 6B > 236A, cl.C > 646BD, 623A > 236214AC	540	310	3	45%	Corner	Only slightly weaker than the 1000 Max combo, but builds nearly half a bar.

41236BD, 2B > BC, 646BD, 623A > 214236CD	443	90	3.5	5%	Corner	Letting Robert run for a little after the Quick Max is what allows the 623A to connect here. Input 623A as early as possible and ohld the button to have more time to input the Climax.
