The King of Fighters '98 UMFE/Saisyu Kusanagi/Combos

Combos

Meterless

Low

2B, 2A, (2A) xx 623B

Basic low confirm.

2B, cl.C(1) > 6A xx 623D:

Tight microwalk link. Requires Saisyu to be point blank.

Mid/Jump-In

(j.X), cl.C(1) > 6A xx 623D

Go-to heavy starter combo for a hard knockdown.

(j.X), cl.C(1) > 6A xx 214A > 214A, 623C

Saisyu's highest meterless damage, but it sacrifices the hard knockdown.

With Meter

2B, 2A, (2A) xx 236236A

Low confirm into DM.

(j.X), cl.C(1) > 6A xx 2141236P

Heavy confirm into Orochinagi.

2B, cl.C(1) > 6A xx 2141236P:

The tight microwalk link for Orochinagi, requires point blank.

6B, 236236A

Can't hitconfirm. Very risky, but the link is easily done with the button hold trick.

With Quick MAX

2B, ABC, cl.C > 6A xx 2141236P

Low Quick MAX from 2B.

6A, ABC, 236236A

Extremely easy Quick MAX overhead into super. You can also perform 2A after the Quick MAX overhead to get a proper hitconfirm, at the cost of range.

6A, ABC, 623B

Quick MAX into hard knockdown.

6A, ABC, f.C xx 2141236P

f.C only hits tall crouchers and standing opponents, except Choi, where it whiffs altogether.

(j.X), cl.C(1) > 6A xx 214A > 214A, ABC, 2141236P

The Quick MAX timing on the second rekka is awkward, so you might need to practice.

(j.X), cl.C(1) > 6A, ABC, f.C xx 2141236P

Saisyu's highest damage. The link between Quick MAX 6A and f.C is quite tight, and you need to remember that f.C only hits on standing opponents or tall crouchers (but never on Choi).
