Starters

A.) st.B, df+D, (special move) <-- Most common

B.) cr.B, cr.A, df+D, (special move)

C.) cr.B, st.A, df+D, (special move)

D.) cr.B, st.B, df+D, (special move) <-- Most common

E.) cl.C, df+D, (special move)

F.) cl.D, df+D, (special move) <-- Most common

G.) cr.Bx2, st.B, df+D, (special move) <-- Most common

Be sure to learn how to do these before you begin to add specials to them. You can also add an jump attack to these as well. The damage values for the combos listed below are from the combo starter (with a jump attack) that gives it the maximum amount of damage. You can add any of the above combo starters that begins with a low attack (ex. cr.Bx2, st.B, df+D, etc) but keep in mind that the damage will be slightly lowered. Any specific combo listed that cannot connect with any of the combo starters will be noted.
