General Combo Tips
- For the pillar bikes combo ender, slightly delay the super cancel to ensure all the bikes hit on light and midweight characters. Be sure not to delay it against Double in the corner, since it will drop.
- jMK jHK is interchangeable with jMK jHP which is easier but does less damage at full scaling
- Is 5HP or 6HP better?
- TL;DR: In the first chain, 6HP is better if you're OK with not keeping a horizontal charge. At max scaling, 6HP is also better. At any other point in the combo, it depends, so test it out. The difference is usually minute so you don't need to stress about it.
- Early: 5HP is two hits (700+750 = 1450 w/o scaling). If 5HP is the 3rd/4th hit in a combo the damage is 700+656 = 1356. 6HP is one hit (1200). Without scaling 5HP is more damage, but it will advance the scaling more, weakening each subsequent move. If you have the execution and are OK with forgoing your horizontal charge, 6HP is better at the start of a combo.
- Max scaling: The damage of 5HP at max scaling is 140+150 = 290. However, 6HP has the minimum scaling of 27.5% since it meets the 1000 base damage requirement. This results in 330 damage for 6HP at max scaling. But, consider that 5HP is more flexible to chain into than 6HP. 5HP will combo with any chain from a medium button, but 6HP you have to use the 2MK 6HP chain, or 5MP/2MP 6HP with a tear. 2MK is a 25 damage penalty over 5MKx2, but 6HP does 40 more damage than 5HPx2.
Beginner Combos
If the bread and butter combos are too daunting, try to become comfortable doing each of these combos. Start with the first, then move to the next one. When you play matches, it's good enough to use the one you can perform the most consistently. Once you can do all of them, try learning the combos in the following sections!
- 2LK 2MK 2HK
A basic ground chain ending in sweep
- 2LK 2MK 5HPx2 Pillar
A basic ground chain ending in a special cancel. This combo will get you used to doing charge motions in combos. After you input s.HP, be sure to hold 1 (the down-back position) so you have a charge ready for Napalm Pillar.
- 2LK 2MK 5HPx2 Quake Sniper
A basic ground chain ending in a super. The sniper super puts the opponent in a crumple.
- 2LK 2MK 2HP
- jLK jMK jMP
- jLP jHK
- restand 5LKx2 5MKx2 5HPx2 Quake Sniper
A basic universal air chain combo with a restand. After the restand, you can go for an overhead mixup with 6LP, or a throw.
