If the opponent is cornered, you can either spend an extra half bar to OTG without sideswitch, OR you can stancel > shorthop for an autotimed safejump.

,
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.

Go-to light, low starter confirm. You're gonna be doing this one a lot.

Extension of the above route, doesn't work past fairly close range, but still somewhat reliable.

Notes
cl.C/2C > 6B
108
Standard heavy starter. Consistent and reliable.
cl.B > cl.C > 6B
132
Light-heavy frame trap/link, requires almost point-blank range.
cl.C/2C > 6A
136
6A does more damage than 6B but has less range and greater knockback. Only use 6A for routes and spacings you are certain will not whiff.
cl.D > 6B/6A
118/146
cl.D not only does more damage than cl.C but also has more range AND less knockback on hit the latter making 6A less inconsistent than it is with cl.C. However, cl.D is 3 frames slower to start up than cl.C, has a much lower hitbox than cl.C, and unlike cannot be whiff cancelled like cl.C(this is important, especially for Yamazaki). Overall, cl.C is the preferred choice for pressure and neutral, with cl.D usually being reserved for guaranteed punishes and deep jump-ins.

Combos
General Notes
Midscreen 41236B/D, midscreen 2141236A/C, cornered 2141236AC, and corner 632146P(any version) can be followed up with 632146K(any version) for extra damage. B/D sideswap, but give an autotimed safejump if sideswapping into the corner.
Some routes that end in 214C will get more damage in the corner, as the first hit of 214C can whiff at range midscreen.

Command grab ender, gives hard knockdown. Whiffs at longer ranges, but if you can land cl.A you can just do autocombo to get it.
