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 > 5B 85 Standard low light confirm. Omit 2A as needed at further spacings. You can add another 2A if you're point blank, but it can push you out of range from some specials, notably 623AC.

Heavy Starters

Combo Damage Notes
cl.C/2C > 6A 117 Standard heavy and jump-in starter. In general you can replace 6A with 6B for about 10 more damage if you are confirming into Quick Max, but not for special cancels.
cl.D > 6A 127 Stronger but slower and whiffs on some crouchers.
cl.A, cl.C > 6A 136 Link combo at close ranges.
cl.B, cl.C > 6A 141 Link combo at close ranges.
63214D, 2C > 6A 87 Easy follow-up to a successful 63214D counter.
63214D, run, cl.D > 6A 95 Slightly stronger.
63214D, j.C, 2C > 6A 141 Very difficult. You must do a hop immediately after Geese recovers, then input j.C immediately for the combo to work. Doesn't work always if Geese is in the corner.

Combos

General Notes

  • Geese can continue most combos that end in a hard knockdown with an OTG 632146P, adding anywhere between 95 to 20 damage, depending on scaling, but you lose corner position and oki. The damage value will be expressed in parantheses.
  • If you're too far for an OTG grab, you can whiff cancel 6B to get extra range.

Rush Auto Combo

Combo Damage Meter cost notes
cl.A > A > A > B 169 0 Rush combo ending in a special move.
cl.A > A > A > C 223 1 Rush combo ending in a super.
cl.A > A > A > D 348 2 Rush combo ending in a Max super.
cl.A > A > A > A 452 3 Rush combo ending in a Climax super.

EX

Combo Damage Stun Meter Gain Location notes
Light/Heavy Starter > 214AC ~ 6P, run, 214C ~ 6K 249/313 (289/358) 175/230 25% Non-Corner Consistent, but doesn't work in the corner. The run isn't always necessary but it helps for consistency.
Light/Heavy Starter > 623AC, 214C ~ 6P 271/337 (336/407) 195/250 25% Anywhere Stronger but can drop at some ranges, which is notable for light confirms such as max range far B. Can only get OTG grab in the corner.
Light/Heavy Starter > 214AC, 623A, 214A ~ 6P 259/323 205/260 35% Corner Going into 214AC in the corner isn't always ideal, but if you do, this is the best you can get out of it.
CD, run, 214AC ~ 6P, run, 214C ~ 6K 259 (299) 200 25% Non-Corner Can work even if the 214AC whiffs, as the 6P can still connect.
CD, 236A, 623AC, 214C ~ 6P 323 (383) 260 35% Corner
214C-6K/214C~2K/6A, 632146AC 154 60 5% Anywhere Metered OTG grab keeps the corner while doing slightly more damage.
41236BD, 632146P 275 0 10% Corner Doing an EX counter and meterless grab does more damage, but a meterless counter > EX grab keeps the corner.

Light/Heavy Starter > 623AC, 214AC ~ 6P, 623A, 214A ~ (delay) 6P 350/423 205/260 1 40% Midscreen At a precise spacing, around round start, you can slip in a 623A after the wallbounce.

Heavy Starter > 214C ~ 6P > 236214P 392 250 1 30% Anywhere 467 dmg with OTG grab, possible when near the corner. This would make it stronger than the above combo.
Light/Heavy Starter > 214AC, 236A, 623AC, 214C ~ 6P 347/419 (402/479) 235/290 1 30% Corner

Light/Heavy Starter > 214AC ~ 6P, run, 623AC, 214C ~ 6K, 632146AC 381/451 175/230 1.5 25% Non-Corner This is your most damaging option from 214AC midscreen.
Light/Heavy Starter > 214AC, 214C ~ 6P, 236214P 358/429 (423/499) 195/230 1.5 25% Non-Corner Weaker without the OTG grab, but the advantage is generally better. You don't need to delay the 6P, but you get more advantage if you do as the super will hit later.
Light/Heavy Starter > 214AC, 236AC, 623AC, 214C ~ 6P 381/456 (431/511) 195/250 1.5 25% Corner With the OTG grab, this is Geese's max damage.

Light/Heavy Starter > 623AC, 236C > 236214P 351/423 (411/488) 145/200 1.5 15% Corner Best option if you land 623AC in the corner.

Heavy Starter > 214C ~ 6P > 214236CD 608 (683) 250 3 30% Anywhere If you're close enough to the corner, you don't need to cancel the 6P; you can just link the Climax to hit OTG. If you land a heavy normal, this is generally his strongest confirm.

6A > 214236CD 385 (450) 60 3 5% Anywhere However, 6A must be cancelled for the combo to work, making it harder to hitconfirm.
