The King of Fighters XV/Vanessa/Combos

Combos

General Notes

• Any combo starting with cr.B, cr.B, b/f+A can also be started with cl.C(2), b/f+A
• It's usually preferred to input b/f+A as just b+A to avoid overlap with b~f+A
• Mashing punch during hcf+P will increase damage and should always be done

Rush Auto Combo

Meterless: 3 quick jabs followed by hcf+A. You can start mashing punches during the hcf+A (184 DMG)
1 Meter: Ends with qcb,hcf+P (225 DMG)
2 Meter: Ends with qcb,hcf+AC (352 DMG)
3 Meter Ends with qcb,hcf+CD (438 DMG)
