Starters

Note: The combos in the "Combos" section have been tested using the first starter in each category (the combos in Bold).

Light Starters

Combo Damage Notes
2B > 2A 38 Standard low confirm. Works in practically any situation.
2B > 2A > 2A 60 Bonus damage low confirm. Must be relatively close. Unreliable after a jump-in.
2B > cl.B > 2A 65 Highest damage low confirm. Must be very close.

Heavy Starters

Note: A Heavy Starter can access any Light Starter combo and it may be more optimal in some situations. A Heavy Starter combo will do 58 more damage than a Light Starter

Combo Damage Notes
cl.C(1) > 6B 96 Standard, reliable heavy starter. Works in practically any situation.
cl.B, cl.C(1) > 6B 121 Light link into cl.C. With good reactions, you can confirm into cl.C. Can be tricky to connect after a jump-in.
2C > 6B 131 Most damaging combo starter. Requires a deep jump-in due to 2C's slower startup.

Other Starters

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

Meterless

Combo Damage Stun Meter Gain Location notes
Light Starter > 41236A > 22C/22K 157/182 45 .225/.25 Anywhere Reliable, high damage combo ender. 41236A combos from lights at practically any range.
Heavy Starter > 214C, 214A 229 295 0.36 Anywhere +41/+68 on tech/knockdown.
Light Starter > 214A 110 125 0.17 Anywhere Maintains sides. +38/+65 on tech/knockdown. Grants an autotimed safejump.
Light Starter > 623A 110 125 0.17 Anywhere Maintains sides. +48/+75 on tech/knockdown. Can drop at some ranges.
Light Starter > 623C 137 125 0.2 Anywhere Maintains sides. +30/+57. Grants a shallow autotimed safehop. Best used in the corner.
Light Starter > f.B, 2D > 6BD 133 145 0.15 Anywhere +24/+51 on tech/knockdown.
Light Starter > 41236D > 236P 185 45 .257 Anywhere Max damage ender. 41236D has limiting range, especially after a jump-in. Requires near immediate chains/special cancel.
Heavy Starter > 214C, 2D > 6BD 229 285 0.31 Anywhere +24/+51 on tech/knockdown.
Heavy Starter > 214C > 623A/C 237 215 0.32 Anywhere Max damage. +44 knockdown but sends them far away.

0.5 Bar

Combo Damage Stun Meter Gain Location notes
Light Starter > 214AC, 41236A > 22C/22K 232/254 45 0.225/0.25 Anywhere Most versatile combo from a light starter.
Heavy Starter > 214C, 214A, 41236AC > 22C/22K 307/340 295 0.36 Anywhere Builds a significant portion of the EX meter before you even spend it.
Light Starter > 214A, 41236AC > 22C/22K 199/239 125 .167 Anywhere Poor use of .5 bar but an easy damage dump after a 214A confirm.
Light Starter > 41236BD, 214A 241 125 .17 Anywhere Close range combo that sets up for further meter spending. +41/+68 on tech/knockdown.
Light Starter > 623AC, 41236D > 236P 245 45 0.257 Anywhere Must be point blank with perfect chains/cancels. Can't add an extra light. Significantly more reliable after cl.C > 6B.
Light Starter > 214AC, 214A 190 125 0.17 Anywhere Maintains sides. +42/+69 on tech/knockdown. Can apply oki afterwards.
Light Starter > 214AC, 623C 214 125 0.2 Anywhere Maintains sides. +35/+62 on tech/knockdown. Launches too far away for oki.
Light Starter > 214AC, 623C, 214A 274 205 .33 Corner Maintains sides. +41/+68 on tech/knockdown.
Light Starter > 41236BD, 623C, 214A 329 205 .33 Back to Corner Max damage when cornered. +41/+68 on tech/knockdown.

1 Bar

Note: At 1 bar, Clark has no unique Heavy Starter combos that deal more damage than a Light Starter combo.

Combo Damage Stun Meter cost Meter Gain Location notes
Light Starter > 41236BD, 214A, 41236AC > 22C/22K 324/361 125 1 .17 Anywhere Maintains sides. Max midscreen damage.
Light Starter > 214AC, 623C, 214A, 41236AC > 22C/22K 346/376 205 1 .33 Corner Max corner damage.
Light Starter > 41236BD, 623C, 214A, 41236AC > 22C/22K 407/440 205 1 .33 Back corner Max back-to-corner damage.
Light Starter > 623AC, 41236BD, 623C, 214A 364 205 1 .33 Back to corner Suboptimal back-to-corner damage but it gives Clark the corner. +41/+68 on tech/knockdown.
Light Starter > 623C(3) > 4123641236K 289 105 1 .18 Anywhere 4123641236K grants an autotimed safejump. Possibly the only 1 bar method to get an autotimed safejump.
Light Starter > 214AC, 214A, 41236AC > 22C/22K 268/301 125 1 .17 Anywhere A simple way to cash out if you confirmed into 214AC.
Heavy Starter > 214C, 623AC, 2C > 41236AC > 22C/22K 338/368 285 1 .3 Corner The only unique 1 bar Heavy Starter combo (and it does less than the Light Starter combo).
Light Starter > 623AC, 41236BD, 214A, 41236AC > 22C/22K 357/387 125 1.5 .17 Anywhere A rather pitiful increase in damage for an extra .5 but one of his only 1.5 routes.
41236A > 22C/41236K/623K > 236P > 6321463214P ~280 - 1 - Anywhere Can super cancel any 236P (Flashing Elbow) for bonus damage, but this is less efficient than using 2 EX moves

2 Bars

Note: Clark does not gain significant damage for the meter investment at 2 bars.

Combo Damage Stun Meter cost Meter Gain Location notes
Light Starter > BC > cl.C(1) > 6B > 623AC, 41236D > 236P > 6321463214P 369 120 2 .04 Anywhere 2nd/3rd character only. A very inefficient use of meter (1 extra bar for ~8 more damage).
Light Starter > 623C(3) > 4123641236BD 396 105 2 .18 Anywhere +48 knockdown allows for decent oki.
Light Starter > 623C(3) > 6321463214AC 403 105 2 .18 Anywhere 7 more damage! At the cost of oki!
41236A > 22C/41236K/623K > 236P > 6321463214AC ~380 - 2 - Anywhere Can super cancel any 236P (Flashing Elbow) for bonus damage. Light Starter/Raw 236P averages around 380 damage.

6B > max > 2C > 6B > 214C > 4123641236K > 2141236CD 526 250 3 Anywhere 3rd character only
41236K/623K > 236P > 2141236CD 425(41236)/423(623K) 0 3 Anywhere Rather meter inefficient and more worthwhile to go for 41236BD to avoid OTG scaling
41236BD, 214A > 2141236CD 624 80 3.5 Anywhere Big damage off an instant command grab
