Meterless

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
2B, 2B, 5B > 236A	107	140	0	15%	Anywhere	Basic light string into 236A, not the best damage
2B, 2B, 5B, 5D > 236C	204	210	0	25%	Anywhere	Meterless target combo extension with the new cancel
2B, 2A/c.C(1) > 4/6A > 41236D	199/206	225	0	25%	Anywhere	Confirm into 41236D, you can get 2 hits of c.C into 4/6A if done as a punish/after a crossup
... > 41236D > BD, 623C	215	235	0	40%	Anywhere	41236D break combo, and best midscreen meterless route
2B, 2A/c.C(1) > 4/6A > 41236D(3) > j.2D, 623C	265/277	295	0	45%	Corner	41236D cancelled into fastfall allows a DP followup in the corner for more damage
2B, 2B, 5B, 5D > 41236D(3) > j.2D, 623C	292	380	0	51%	Corner	41236D fastfall route also works from Target Combo. Improves on the old route in every way, even when starting with only one 2B.
CD > (236A), 236C	145	180	0	25%	Anywhere	Easy CD combo from a fairly safe cancel option, good for super extensions
CD > 236C~ 41236D	166	220	0	30%	Anywhere	Higher damage CD combo using 236C whiff cancel
CD, 41236D(3) > j.2D, 623C	218	290	0	45%	Corner	For consistency, don't cancel CD into 41236D. It's possible to cancel into a whiffed 236A and still get the 41236D, but the 236A can sometimes hit and end the combo

EX

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
2B, 2B, 5B, 5D > 41236BD, 236A	260	210	50%	25%	Anywhere	EX increase with target combo starter. Excellent corner carry. Works best when the EX Kuhadan hits late in the juggle to get all hits.
2B, 2A/c.C(1) > 4/6A > 236AC, 236C	286	285	50%	15%	Anywhere	236AC combo, 236C can whiff if done out of the corner
2B, 2A/c.C(1) > 4/6A > 41236D > BD, 623AC	260	235	50%	30%	Anywhere	Break into EX dp, simple damage increase from his normal midscreen route
2B, 2A/c.C(1) > 4/6A > 236AC, 41236D(3) > j.2D, 623C	391		50%	49%	Corner	236AC wallsplat when in the corner leaves them crumpled with enough time to follow up with 41236, very good corner route

1 Bar

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
2B, 2A/c.C(1) > 4/6A > 236C > 2141236B/D	322		1	15%	Anywhere	Simple combo into super, the cancel from 236C can be done late and still combo to make the cancel simpler
2B, 2A/c.C(1) > 4/6A > 41236D > BD, 623A > 2141236B/D	318		1	45%	Anywhere	Break into dp > super. The motion for dp to super is 632146A > 236B/D
... > 41236D(3) > j.2D, 623A > 2141236B/D	362		1	45%	Corner	Fastfall cancel into dp > super. Can omit the dp and just go straight from dive to super for an easier combo that does 334

2 Bars

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
Any combo into Quick Max > 5C(1) > 4/6A > 236AC, 236C > 2141236B/D	391		2	5%	Anywhere	Quick Max combo, not bad to use off of stray hits and counterpokes
2B, 2A/c.C(1) > 4/6A > 236AC, 236C > 2141236B/D	412	285	1.5	20%	Anywhere	Efficient 1.5 bar midscreen super ender
2B, 2A/c.C(1) > 4/6A > 41236D > j.2D, 623A > 2141236BD	490		2	45%	Corner	Example of using max super, usually a worthwhile damage increase

3 Bars

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
Any combo into Quick Max > 5C(1) > 4/6A > 236AC, 236C > 2141236BD	468		3	5%	Anywhere	Quick max combo with a max super ender, simple and good damage

4 Bars

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
c.C > 4/6A > 236C > 2141236B/D > 2141236CD	682		4	20%	Anywhere	Since his climax can be done midair, you can get almost the full super for 2141236 before cancelling
Max Mode, c.C > 4/6A > 236C > 2363214A/C > 2141236BD > 2141236CD	972		4	0	Anywhere	Max Mode combo, and about the highest damage you can do. You won't always land this but when you do, it'll probably kill

5 Bars

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
c.C(1) > 4/6A > 236C > 2141236BC > 2141236CD	805		5	0	Anywhere	Max super into climax, nice high damage to dump 5 bars on
