Combo Notation Guide

Notation Meaning
X Starter Use the corresponding starter(s) from the 'Starters' section of this page.
> Cancel the previous move into the following move.
If preceded by a move in brackets, must cancel the start of the preceding move (AKA a 'Kara Cancel').
, 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 Notes
2B > 2A > 5B 65 Standard low light confirm.
j.X > f.B - Cancellable f.B allows for good damage from incredibly spaced jump-ins.

Heavy Starters

Combo Damage Notes
cl.C(1) > 6A 82 Standard heavy starter, works from a jump-in. cl.C with no 6A can be slightly more optimal in longer combos due to scaling.
cl.D > 6A 127 Most damaging combo starter. Never works from a jump-in, so reverse for punishes.
cl.A, cl.C (1) > 6A 103 Light confirm, must be point blank.

Other Starters

(Note: 'Other Starters' won't be referenced in the 'Combos' section.)

Combos

General Notes

  • Any combo ending in a 214A sets up for a meaty 22C, easy to do using button hold.

Rush Auto Combo

Combo Damage Meter cost notes
cl.A > A > A > B 161 0 Rush combo ending in a special move
cl.A > A > A > C 240 1 Rush combo ending in a super

Meterless

Combo Damage Stun Meter Gain Location Notes
Light Starter > 623C 156 175 25% Anywhere Basic light string. Kula can't combo into much off lights without meter.
2B > 2A > 214A 83 125 5% Anywhere Much worse but is a hard knockdown and a 22C setup, which is something. Still better to use the above combo.
Heavy Starter > 214B ~ 6D, 623C 228 255 45% Anywhere BNB combo. 214A ender gives hard knockdown for less damage (183).
Heavy Starter > 214D ~ (delay) 6B, 214C, 623C 284 415 55% Corner Requires a delay to get both hits of the 6B followup. Meter build and stun are very good here.

EX

Combo Damage Stun Meter cost Meter Gain Location Notes
Light/Heavy Starter > 214BD > dl.6D, 214A/623C 231/318 160/245 50% 30% Anywhere EX kicks off of a light confirm, nice way to get 22C oki off lows. Nice damage increase from her BNB from Heavy Starters, and allows her to get 22C oki unlike the 236AC combo.
Light Starter > 214BD ~ dl.6B, 623C 263 190 50% 30% Corner EX kick squeezes a bit more damage in the corner from dl.6B instead.
Heavy Starter > 236AC, 214D, 623C 336 325 50% 48% Anywhere 236AC crumple combo. Hard to get a 214A without sacrificing a ton of damage, plus this combo is almost zero meter making it very worth it.
Heavy Starter > 236AC, 214D > dl.6B, 623C 365 405 50% 50% Corner 236AC extension to her corner combo. Zero on meter so if you have it use it, and good damage on top of it.
CD > 236C, 214BD ~ dl.6B, 623C 316 240 50% 40% Corner

1 Bar

Combo Damage Stun Meter cost Meter Gain Location Notes
Light Starter > 214BD ~ dl.6D, 623AC 293 90 1 10% Anywhere Generally not worth it due to the lackluster meter gain, but can steal a round.
Light Starter > 214BD ~ dl.6B, 214BD ~ dl.6D, 623C 318 190 1 30% Corner
Heavy Starter > 214B ~ 6D, 623A > 236236A/C 384 265 1 45% Anywhere BNB combo with a super added, shortcut the dp super as 6236C, 236A/C.
Heavy Starter > 236AC, 214BD ~ dl.6D, 214A/623C 375 245 1 30% Anywhere Does less damage than above combo, but allows for more flexible ender options.
Heavy Starter > 214D ~ dl.6B, dl.623C > 236236B/D 399 365 1 45% Corner Super extension to her corner combo. delay 6B followup as much as possible, and do 623C as early as possible. Opt for 623A > 236236A/C instead to sacrifice negligible dmg for more consistency.
Heavy Starter > 236AC > 214D ~ dl.6B, 623AC 397 305 1 30% Corner
CD > 236C, 214BD ~ dl.6B, 214BD ~ dl.6D, 623C 366 240 1 40% Corner
236CD, 214D, 623C 229 180 1 80% Anywhere Shatter Strike combo. Possible to do if the Shatter Strike hits airborne, but can be awkward. When in doubt, opt for a running 623C instead. If Kula is point blank with the opponent, 214D may not work properly. Just use a 623C in those cases as well.
236CD, 214D ~ dl.6B, 623C 270 260 1 85% Corner
Light Starter > 214BD ~ dl.6D, 623C > 236236B/D 353 130 1.5 25% Anywhere Try to get the opponent to land on the 6D as late as possible for the most consistency with the Super Cancel. 623A > 236236A/C works too.
Light Starter > 214BD ~ dl.6B, dl.623C > 236236B/D 353 150 1.5 25% Corner Super extension to her corner combo. delay 6B followup as much as possible, and do 623C as early as possible. Opt for 623A > 236236A/C instead to sacrifice negligible dmg for more consistency.
Heavy Starter > 236AC, 214D, 623C > 236236B/D 434 285 1.5 40% Anywhere Sets up the perfect height to get both hits of 236236B/D without any delay necessary.
Heavy Starter > 236AC, 214D ~ dl.6B, dl.623C > 236236B/D 450 340 1.5 45% Corner
236CD, 214BD ~ (delay)6D, 623C 290 100 1.5 70% Anywhere

Combo Damage Stun Meter cost Meter Gain Location Notes
Light Starter > 623C > 236236BD 416 150 2 25% Non-Corner 236236BD is inconsistent in the corner, so use 236236AC when in the corner instead.
Heavy Starter > 214B ~ 6D, 623C > 236236BD 498 285 2 48% Anywhere Level 2 super followup. Nice and simple damage increase. Optimal in the corner as well.
Light/Heavy Starter > MAX, c.D > 6A > 236AC, 214D, 623C > 236236B/D 395/430 310/340 2 10% Anywhere 1st/2nd Character. cl.C can be used instead of cl.D for more consistency.
Light/Heavy Starter > BD, c.D > 236AC, 214BD ~ (delay)6D, 623C > 236236B/D 402/462 230/260 2 10% Anywhere 1500 Gauge combo.
CD > 236C, 214BD ~ (delay)6B, 214BD ~ (delay)6D, 623C > 236236B/D 446 200 2 30% Corner

236CD, 214D ~ (delay)6B, 623C > 236236B/D 383 220 2 80% Corner
Light Starter > 214BD ~ dl.6D, 623C > 236236BD 450 150 2.5 25% Anywhere Optimal in the corner.
Heavy Starter > 236AC, 214D, 623C > 236236BD 531 285 2.5 40% Anywhere
Heavy Starter > 236AC, 214D ~ dl.6B, 623C > 236236BD 549 360 2.5 45% Corner Use cl.C instead of cl.C(1) > 6A. Notice how the 6B follow-up does not add significant damage as meter output increases. The stun and meter gain can be notable however.
CD > 236C, 214BD ~ (delay)6D, 623C > 236236BD 490 200 2.5 35% Corner
236CD, 214BD ~ (delay)6D, 623C > 236236B 400 60 2.5 65% Anywhere

Combo Damage Stun Meter cost Meter Gain Location Notes
Light Starter > 623C > 236236B/D > 236236AC 543 150 3 25% Non-Corner This is a very precise combo. 236236AC must be inputted slightly late at what seems to be the end of the cancel window for 236236B/D in order for all the hits to connect. It also must be inputted as 214214AC since Kula switches sides. Overall Kula is better off using Max mode confirms here for consistency.
Heavy Starter > 214B > 6D, 623A > 236236A/C > 236236BD 611 265 3 40% Anywhere Timing looks difficult but cancelling into 236236BD as soon as possible sets up the perfect timing for all the hits of 236236BD to connect. Causes a side switch midscreen. Optimal in the corner as well.
Light/Heavy Starter > MAX, cl.D(1) > 6A > 236AC, 214D, 623C > 2141236CD 533/596 310/365 3 10% Anywhere 1st Character. cl.C can be used after the Quick Max for consistency. You can input 623C > 2141236CD as 632146C > 236CD for a shortcut. Otherwise perform 623C as early as possible and hold C to give yourself more time to input the Climax.
Light/Heavy Starter > MAX, cl.D(1) > 6A > 623C > 236236B/D > 2141236CD 576/639 230/285 3 10% Anywhere 2nd Character. Delay the cancel into Climax slightly to ensure both hits of 236236B/D connect. You also must input the Climax in reverse. 236236A/C works fine too if the cancel is awkward for you.
Light/Heavy Starter > MAX, cl.D(1) > 6A > 214B ~ 6D, 623A > 236236A/C > 2141236CD 589/652 290/320 3 10% Anywhere 3rd Character.
Heavy Starter > 236AC, 214D, 623C > 236236B/D > 236236AC 632 285 3.5 40% Non-Corner Small gain over her 3 bar combo.
Heavy Starter > 236AC, 214D, 623A > 236236A/C > 236236BD 638 265 3.5 40% Corner cl.C instead of cl.C(1) > 6A does a fair bit more damage.
