Combo List

All buttons are done using in game notation of LMHU. X represents the use of any normal button. "Normal" buttons are the aforementioned LMH buttons.
LX results in more damage than LXX due to scaling in most combos involving EX moves.

Midscreen, no grenade

Combo	Damage	Meter Gain	Works on:	Difficulty	Notes
c.XXX > 214M~M/H	1740-2660	18%-27%	All	[1] Very Easy	Autocombo BNB, nothing outstanding
c.XXX > 5U~5U	~2100	18%-22%	All	[1] Very Easy	Alternate autocombo BNB, serves as a middleground of oki/damage between an Assault Knife or Takedown ender
2L > 2L, f.L > 214L~H	1820	16%	All	[2] Easy	Low hitconfirm.
2L > 2L, 2M > 214M~M/H	2070/2190	15%/19%	All	[1] Very Easy	Crouching hitconfirm.
f.M/2M > 214M~M/H	1680/1840	13%/18%	All	[1] Very Easy	Confirm from medium poke, will not work at max range
f.H > 214M~M/H	1980/2140	14%/19%	All	[1] Very Easy	Confirm from f.H, can substitute 5U~U as an ender for alternate oki
2H > 214L~L/H	1700/1500/2000	12%/16%	All	[1] Very Easy	Non-CH anti-air confirm, first hit of Assault Knife might whiff
2H > 214L~G > c.HHH > 214M~H	3425	32%	All	[1] Very Easy	CH anti-air confirm, can substitute 5U~U as an ender for alternate oki

Corner, no grenade

Combo	Damage	Meter Gain	Difficulty	Notes
c.XXX > [4]6H, c.MMM > [2]8H	2765-3565	35%-40%	[2] Easy	Simple autocombo confirm, not terribly useful but might be good if it'll close out the round and Eustace can't get anything else.
c.L/2L > c.LLL > [4]6H, 2M > 28H, 2M > 214M~H	3065	41%	[3] Medium	Standing opponents only. Double jab combo that does slightly more than the c.LLL variant of the above combo, but does not end in a hard knockdown.
c.L/2L > c.L/2L, f.L > [2]8H, f.H > [4]6H, f.H > 5U~U	3630	36%	[3] Medium	Confirm from f.L. Extremely spacing dependent and will drop in many cases, so it's not that reliable. However, it's reward is much great than confirming straight into 214L~H.
c.L/2L > c.L/2L, 2M > [2]8H, f.H > [4]6H, f.H > 5U~U	3870	36%	[3] Medium	The more reliable version of the above combo, with the stipulation that it only works on crouching opponents.

Midscreen, mid-combo grenade

Combo	Damage	Meter Gain	Works on:	Difficulty	Notes
c.H > 623H, f.L > [4]6H!, 5U~U > 66 > f.H > 5U~U	3940	44%	All	[3] Medium	Essentially relegated to reversal punishes. Hurts a lot for a midscreen combo.
c.L/2L, c.MMM > 623H, 2M > 214M~L!, 5U~U > 66 > c.H > 5U~U	3015	44%	All	[3] Medium	Crouch confirm, works from any autocombo.

Corner, mid-combo grenade

Combo	Damage	Meter Gain	Works on:	Difficulty	Notes
c.H > 623H, f.L > [4]6L!, f.H > [4]6M! > 66 > c.H > 5U~U	4120	43%	All	[3] Medium	It's cooler than the midscreen version because he shoots you twice and it costs no cooldowns except grenade itself.
c.L/2L, c.MMM > 623H > 2M > 214M~L!, f.H > [4]6M! > 66 > c.H > 5U~U	3185	45%	All	[3] Medium	Only shoots you once but still only costs one cooldown.

Midscreen, grenade set

Combo	Damage	Meter Gain	Works on:	Difficulty	Notes
Forward Throw! > [4]6H! > 66 > 2U	3010	30%	All	[3] Medium	Macrodash combo. Cancel 2U into 4G and hold 9 for a safejump.
Forward Throw! > [4]6H! > 66 > f.H > 5U~U	3740	37%	All	[3] Medium	Alternate ender to the above. Worse oki but significantly better damage and meter gain.
2M > 214M~L!, 5U~U! > 66 > c.H > 5U~U	3390	36%	All	[3] Medium	2M can be substituted with any non-light button.
f.L > [4]6H!, 5U~U! > 66 > c.H/f.H > 5U~U	3600	38%	All	[3] Medium	f.L can be substituted by any light button or string of light buttons.
UOH!, c.H > [4]6H!, 5U~U! > 66 > f.H > 5U~U	4270	36%	All	[3] Medium	UOH confirm.
Air Throw!, [4]6H! > 66 > c.H > 5U~U	3860	38%	All	[3] Medium	Rare starter, but good damage for a universal anti-air.
5U~U!, c.H > [4]6H! > 66 > 2U	3370	34%	All	[3] Medium	Substitute 2U for f.H > 5U~U for better damage but worse oki. Can be confirmed into from autocombo or heavy buttons.
214M~U!, 5U~U!, f.H > 5U~U	3730	40%	All	[3] Medium	Another rare starter, but pretty safe to go for.

Corner, grenade set

Combo	Damage	Meter Gain	Works on:	Difficulty	Notes
Forward Throw! > 2H > [4]6[H] > 66 > f.H > 5U~U	4148	32%	All	[3] Medium	Laser wallbounce. Combos in this section generally use f.H > 5U~U and delay 2U interchangeably as enders. Use one or the other depending on if you want damage or oki.
2M > 214M~L!, c.H > [4]6M!, 2H > [4]6[H], 2U	3943/4355	38%/36%	All	[3] Medium	Flamek Thunder launcher deals more damage than Stunlight launcher, but you might want to use 214M to close distance to corner. Any non-light button can substitute for 2M.
f.L > [4]6L!, f.H > [4]6M! > 66 > c.H > 5U~U	3790	34%	All	[3] Medium	f.L can be substituted by any light button or string of light buttons.
UOH!, 2H > [2]8[H], 66 > c.H > 5U~U	4300	34%	All	[2] Easy	UOH confirm.
c.H > 5U~U!, 2H > [2]8[H], 2H > [4]6[H], 2U	4655	43%	All	[3] Medium	Can be confirmed into from autocombo or heavy buttons.

CH midscreen

Combo	Damage	Meter Gain	Works on:	Difficulty	Notes
CH c.M > 623H, f.L > [4]6L!, f.H > [4]6M! > 66 > c.H > 5U~U	3440	41%	All	[4] Hard	Identical to your c.H punish. More difficult to confirm than anything.
CH 214M~L, 2L > 2M > 214M~M/H	2170/2290	22%/26%	All	[2] Easy	Experienced opponents won't crouch mash on 214M, but in case they do this convert is there.
CH 2L, f.M/2M > 214M~M/H	1920/2060	14%/18%	All	[2] Easy	Go-to for when you are out of range for c.M
CH c.M, 2M > 214M~M/H	2220/2360	16%/21%	All	[2] Easy	Slightly outdamages the autocombo confirm while not requiring you to commit to it.

CH corner

Combo	Damage	Meter Gain	Works on:	Difficulty	Notes
CH c.M > 2M > [2]8H, f.H > [4]6H, f.H > 5U~U	4408	39%	All	[3] Medium	Frame trapping into c.M from c.L or 2L puts you at the perfect spacing to get this combo.
CH 2L > 2M > [4]6H, 2M > [2]8H, f.H > 5U~U	3920	35%	All	[3] Medium	Alternative to the f.L Slow Kill confirm that's more reliable, but only works at essentially 0 distance to corner.
CH c.H, c.H > [2]8H, 2M/f.H > [4]6H, f.H > 5U~U	5362	43%	All	[3] Medium	Very rewarding starter, but fairly hard to come by. Works even when slightly spaced out, but you might get f.H instead of a second c.H. It won't make the combo drop but it'll make it do slightly less damage.
CH f.H > [4]6[H] > f.H > 5U~U	3790	23%	All	[3] Medium	The most consistent way to get a combo from a f.H spacing trap, although at closer ranges better combos are possible.
CH 214M~L, 2L > 2M > [2]8H, f.H > [4]6H, f.H > 5U~U	3965	43%	All	[3] Medium	Experienced opponents won't crouch mash on 214M, but in case they do this convert is there.
CH 5U~[U], f.L > [2]8H > 66 > 2H > 623H > 2U	3600	31%	All	[4] Hard	What makes 5U a dangerous frame trap. Ends with a grenade set on them.
