Midscreen

Combo Damage Meter Gain Works on: Difficulty Notes
... > 2H(2) > SD > j.MLL > jc.LLL > j.214M 3605 0.8 All
j.2H ▷ 236L~M > 214M 1925 0.6 All Grounded j.2H confirm. Keeps the opponent close and builds meter in exchange for damage
j.2H ▷ 236L~M~M 1981 0.5 All Alternate grounded j.2H confirm.
... > 2H(2) > SD > j.M > jc.LL2H > delay j.214L > Vanish ▷ dash 2M > 5M > jc.MLL > jc.LLL > j.214M 4691 -0.1 All Extending the BnB using j.2H. Input j.214L when you're near the ground. At high hitstun decay, you'll have to cut one j.L at the end, i.e. j.ML > jc > j.LL
... > 236H > dash > 2M > 5M > jc.MLL > jc.LLL > j.214M 4502 -0.4 All Less meter initially, less meter gained than the previous route. Comparable damage.
SD > j.LL > j.214L > Vanish ▷ dash 2M > 236L~L~M 2674 -0.6 All
236L~H/236M~H, dash 2M > delay 5M > 236L~M > 214M 3102 -0.4 All
236L~H/236M~H, dash 2M > 5M > jc.MLL > jc.LLL > j.214M 3690 -0.4 All
j.2H ▷ 236H, dash 5L (whiff) > 5LLL > SD > j.MLL > jc.LLL > j.214M 3964 -0.3 All

Corner

Combo Damage Meter Gain Works on: Difficulty Notes
... > 2H(2) > SD > j.MLL > jc.LLL > j.S > j.214M 3727 1.0 All The same as midscreen BnB but ending with j.S after j.LLL instead of just j.LLL.
5L > 5LL > 5LLL, dash 2M > 5M > 2H(2) > SD > j.MLL > jc.LLL > j.S > j.214M 3505 1.7 All Does more damage and meter gain than 5LL > 2M > 5M > 2H(2), but is significantly harder.
5L > 5LL > 5LLL, delay 5L > 5LL > 2H(2) > SD ... 3295 1.6 All Easier, still has very good meter gain, though it does less damage than 2M > 5M > 2H(2).
... > 5LLL > delay 5L > 5LL > 5LLL > ... ~100 +0.4 Big Bodies On larger characters like Broly and Cell, Yamcha is able to loop his autocombo into itself to add on a little extra damage and meter gain.
5H, 2M > 5M > 2H(2) > SD ... 3250 0.6 All 5H link. The same idea as 5LLL but the link itself is way easier.
5H > 236S, 2L > 5L > 2H(2) > SD ... 3561 0.65 All Optimal 5H route. Only works at the very edge of the screen.
... > 236L~H > dl~236S > 2LL > 2H(2) > SD > j.MLL > jc.LLL > j.S > j.214M 3961 0.15 All Wolf Fang Fist: Flash corner combo. Takes advantage of the Kame link to boost your solo damage to around 5.2k with unscaled starters. This combo builds meter (despite using an EX move), does more damage, and is less difficult than the previous j.2H route.

Assist

Combo Position Damage Meter Gain Works on: Difficulty Notes
... > 2M5M > jML2H > Assist > SD... Anywhere 2590 + 0.4 bar All Easy  Timing for assist is different for each. On taller assists, you can use jH instead of 2H. In the corner, you can follow up certain assists with 2H before the SD for 465 bonus damage.

Sparking

Combo Position Damage Meter Gain Works on: Difficulty Notes
... j.LLL > airdash j.LL > j.214M Anywhere ? ? All Slightly extended midscreen BnB.
... j.MHS > airdash j.LLL > j.214M Corner ? ? All
2M > 5M > 2H(1) > Spark, 5H > 236S, 2L > 5L > 2H(2) > SD > j.MHS > airdash j.LLL > j.214M Corner  5535 3.15 All medium High damaging Sparking combo.
236L (whiff) > 6M > Sparking! > 5H > 236S > 2L > 5L > 2H > SD > j.MH > jc.MH > j.214M > Vanish > 2M > 236L~M~M > 236L+M > 214L+M Corner Death ? All Limit Break Sparking solo ToD, must start in the corner for the Kame link to work.
5H > 236S > 2L > 2H > Sparking! > 5H > 2H > SD > j.LLL > jc.MH2H > delay j.214L > Vanish > 2M > 236L~M~M > [Vanish] > DR > 236L+M > 214L+M Corner Death All Alternate starter for Limit Break solo ToD.

Misc

  • Lv1 into Lv3 link

You can control the last 5 hits of Spirit Ball using any button. Every downward direction will cause sliding knockdown, but 1 and 3 are better for comboing into Ultimate Wolf Fang Fist than 2.

In general, you wanna throw the opponent high enough off the ground before ending with a downward ball as the last hit, but not too high that the opponent techs out before they touch the ground.

Something like 7L > 4L > 7L > 4L > 1L will work. There's no weird timing, just press the buttons at a constant rate. This sequence can also be used to bring the opponent closer to you after a midscreen BnB.

However, 74741 will cause a sideswitch at close range. So doing this in the corner into Lv3 isn't recommended as it will ruin the oki. You can use 84683 for this instead, but it has slightly different timings.

  • 5LLL > 236M~M~M
  • 5H > 236M~M~M

Works midscreen.

  • 5LLL > 236L~M~M
  • 5LLL > 236M~L~M
  • 5H > 236L~L~M

Works in the corner.
