Beginners BnB to practice charging ]B[ during the combo.
Start holding B during 22A, cancel 3CC into ]B[ release.
623A extension is widely used and is vital to learn
Theory
Almost all Hilda combos end in a Lynch Pin/Fallen Pain ]X[ so you can setup 214X
It is usually better to end the combo in Pin early than it is to drop the combo later
You want to start holding [X] as soon as possible for max damage. You can start holding it during a B normal or any special
214X or Condense Gloom will put her opponent in enough block stun to run a mixup
You can change the direction gloom faces by inputting 2X/4X/6X, which will point it in the direction you press

VO strip route for when the opponent has Vorpal
The most toxic VO strip route in the game, since Hilda does not have to trade in damage or oki to get it. If the opponent has Vorpal, there is no reason not to do this.
Immediately 214C 236A to go in for a mix
Meter dump ender. This is her highest damaging super, adding 900 damage at max proration.
Be careful of how many OTGs you have left. This only works if you have one to spare. If you used 623A twice, this will drop.
CVO ender. In vorpal Hilda gets 50 EXS refunded for every EX move, which allows for an additional super pre-CVO. Consult the video guide at the bottom of this page for a more detailed breakdown of her options.

2A BnB
The tk j.2C is optional and will whiff if the opponent is too far.
Low proration starter in the corner.
Be careful to buffer the 22A in time. It takes some getting used to, but the window is bigger than you might expect
This works when Hilda is facing away from the corner.
Low damage but consistent

BnB for B starters and better.
Make sure to jump forward (hold 9) after 3B
This combo alongside the first A starter contains almost all the constituent parts for her other combos, so learning it is highly recommended.
Works in the corner if you jump backwards (hold 7) rather than forward after 3B, though if you're too close it still might drop.
More optimal but slightly harder BnB
If the opponent hits the ground before 22A connects, the 623A extension will drop. In that case end in 22A 5C 3CC ]B[

Works anywhere on the screen, except close to the corner, where you should end in 5C 3CC ]B[ (leave out the 623A)
Easiest to confirm when you’re certain 3B will hit, post cs for example
Be careful, on block this will buffer 3B 5[C], at the range 5[C] will whiff
For confirming 3B~AD throw OS
Easier on CH, but not it's not required
Consistent anti air confirm
Damage subject to distance proration
Start holding [B] at 5BB or 22A/B
Delay the second 3c as long as you can

22A/B starter means you cannot use it a second time, be careful not to auto steer.
What's listed here is the optimal confrim, but for consistency's sake you might want to end in 3[B] j.[C] 3CC ]B[.
This is the overhead in Hilda's high-low mix. This confirm is meant for rising whiff j.A > j.[C].
Amazing damage output, unlike other unreactable overheads (hello there, b drill :3).
For range specific confirms, please check out the combo guide linked at the bottom of the page.
Lynchpin starters do very little damage, and have worse oki as they can't end in a hard knockdown.
