---|---|
Disclaimer: Combos are written by various writers, so notation may differ slightly from this notation. | |
X > Y | X input is cancelled into Y. |
X, Y | X input is linked into Y, meaning Y is done after X's recovery period. |
X+Y | Buttons "X" and "Y" must be input simultaneously. |
X/Y | Input "X" or "Y" can be used. |
dl | There should be delay before inputting "X". |
w.X or Xw | Attack "X" should whiff and not hit the opponent. |
j.X | Button "X" is input while jumping or in the air. |
dj.X | Button "X" is input after a double jump. |

Basics
Starter Combos
These are some simple combos to begin using Shiki. Get these basics down first before attempting any of his more advanced routing, as they are a great starting place.

The universal Shiki BNB, and one you should master. Can be done from 2AAA or and IAD normal. Teaches you the basic rejump that Shiki will rely on for almost all of his combos. | |||

Something you can do if you accidentally perform a Rapid Beat mid combo when you didn't want to. Useful for failed hit confirms or simple ease of use. | |||

Shield A route that is slightly different from 3C thanks to the scaling differences. Again, a good starting place. | |||

The universal way to pick up off air hits (granted you have enough untech to do so). Generally the same routing as his BNB, with the only difference being how you started the combo. |

Combo Theory
There isn't a great deal of complexity or finesse needed for Shiki's combos, the hardest thing you'll run into is most likely the j6B+C > dj[C] links in the advanced sections. You can throw most of his moves together to make a satisfactory combo as long as you follow a basic structure;
- Start combo (normal poke or jump-in, etc)
- cancel into 214A/214B
- continue with follow-up chain on the ground from 236B & 6B+C or j[C] > dl.jB from 214A/214B
- lead into 3C or rapid beat 3 and Air Throw to end the combo
This is the most basic structure that you'll want to follow when you get a hit that doesn't spend resources (minus the version with 6B+C) for decent damage. For other combos on specific starters/moon drive optimizations the Combo Doc by Chester is a good resource

Meter Dumping
236C
- your most common 1 bar extender of choice. big damage, strong corner carry, knocks down outside the corner in most combos and wall bounces for extensions in the corner.
623C
- Generally worse to 236C in nearly all aspects, except for the fact it gives a hard knockdown much closer to Shiki, allower greater potential of mixups in oki
236B+C
- Generally, most characters wouldn't want to waste 3 bars for an arc drive unless it gets the kill/ends the match. However, as Shiki gets his 22x series after his arc drive, you'll incentivized to go for this often in certain matchups. Especially useful given that if you finish a round with this the 22x series will be unlocked for the whole next round.
J.236C
- Sometimes used in certain oki setups in lieu of 623C. Generally leads to his better oki thanks to being more consistent and having more variation in air strings.
Video Examples
In this section we'll link to a couple of videos that show off different Shiki combos. Over time the combo lists will be expanded to include as much of these combos that are useful/ unique enough to warrant their own description, but for the time being you may find combos in these videos that aren't listed above.
KEEP IN MIND THE VIDEOS ARE OLD AND MAY BE OUTDATED AS OF THE NECO-ARC PATCH.
SOME COMBOS MAY BE UNOPTIMAL AND THE DAMAGE IS MOST LIKELY OFF
