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.

Light Starters

Combo Damage Notes
2B > 2A > 5A~C 136 Technically not a Light Starter, but the routes are often distinct from Heavy Starter combos.

Heavy Starters

Note: All Light Starter combos can be accessed by any Heavy Starter

Combo Damage Notes
2C > 6B 117 Most basic heavy starter. The decreased number of hits grants better scaling in longer combos (i.e., meter dumps). cl.D does more damage but lacks 2C's forward momentum.
2B > cl.A, 2C > 6B 143 Heavy link from a light low confirm. Fantastic damage and stun.
cl.A > cl.B, 2C > 6B 158 Highest damage and stun from a light mid confirm. Great after j.C crossups.

Other Starters

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

CD

Combo Damage Stun Meter Cost Meter Build Location Notes
CD, 66, 6B > 632146C 232 140 0 .33 Anywhere Meterless Blowback combo. If the 6B is too shallow after dashing, the 632146C will whiff.

41236AC, 6B > 632146C > 6321463214P 384 40 1.5 .24 Anywhere With EX scaling, a 1 bar super dump adds a hefty amount of damage.

214A/C~P, 6A 138/158 80 0 .19/.21 Anywhere 6A OTG after a deep 214P~P. 6A OTG grants solid oki.
214A/C~P, 632146AC 214/234 80 .5 .15/.17 Anywhere 632146AC OTG after 214P~P. Significantly more lenient than 6A OTG.

6A, 632146AC 154 90 .5 .07 Anywhere OTG after 6A overhead to add some damage.

1 Bar

Note: O. Yashiro cannot meaningfully string multiple EX moves in combos, so he'll generally cash out with supers.

Light Starter > BC > cl.D > 6B > CD > 632146C > 6321463214P 447 285 2 0.115 Anywhere Basic Quick Max combo for any position. cl.C/2C is significantly easier to link.

3 Bars

Combo Damage Stun Meter cost Meter Gain Location notes
