| | ==Introduction== |
| | This page will teach you about Giovanna's Combo Theory, from the basics to more advanced concepts. |
| | |
| | It is structured in sections which build upon previously established concepts. As such, if you feel like you're missing some information, rereading a previous section might consolidate the missing knowledge. |
| | |
| | With each piece of theory, there'll be examples that demonstrate common routes utilizing said theory; on top of explanations as to why said theory would be used there. |
| | |
| | <!--At the end of the page, there'll be a link to the [[#Combo_Compendium|Combo Compendium]], a more advanced page where combos are dissected into the sections explained here, but with a focus on system mechanics (like combo decay, RISC loss and proration), execution and okizeme choice.<br> |
| | Following that, there'll also be a standard [[#Combo_List|Combo List]], which once you've read the combo theory should be easy to understand and dissect.--> |

| | Giovanna can special cancel {{MiniMoveCard|game=GGST|chara=Giovanna|label=Chave {{clr|4|214H}}|input=214H}} into her other specials to enhance them. |
| | |
| | When used inside a combo recipe or a string, the standard {{ComboText|{{clr|4|214H}}~Special}} notation will be used. For example:<br> |
| | *{{ComboText|{{clr|3|f.S}} > {{clr|4|2H}} > {{clr|4|214H}}~{{clr|3|6S}}, 66 {{clr|3|f.S(2)}} > {{clr|4|2H}} > {{clr|4|214H}}~{{clr|3|4S}}, {{clr|3|c.S}} > {{clr|4|5H}} > {{clr|4|214H}}~{{clr|2|6K}}}} |
| | |
| | Meanwhile, when simply referring to said enhanced specials, the following {{ComboText|enSpecial}} notation will be used, mainly referring to them being enhanced. For example (referring to the above shown combo): |
| | *For {{clr|4|2H}} to combo into {{clr|3|en623S}} on a grounded opponent, you need to cancel {{clr|4|214H}} into {{clr|3|en623S}} as soon as possible. |
| | }} |
| | |
| | ==Beginner Theory== |
| | The purpose of a combo is chiefly to deal damage to the opponent, but we must also consider how to keep our advantage after the combo.<br> |
| | To do so, we aim to get a {{Keyword|knockdown|term=soft knockdown}}, and follow that up with different {{Keyword|okizeme|okizeme}} depending on the situation. |
| | |
| | Beginner Theory will thus focus mostly on getting a knockdown, with easy to execute combos aimed at beginners to the game. |
| | |
| | Once you feel like you've mastered the following sections, you can read their more advanced versions in the [[#Basic_Theory|Basic Theory]] section. |

| | ===<span style="visibility:hidden"> Sepultura {{clr|2|214K}} Knockdown </span>=== |
| | {{Card |
| | |header=Sepultura {{clr|2|214K}} Knockdown |
| | |content= |
| | [[File:GGST_Giovanna_Sepultura.png|thumb|right|220px]] |
| | Giovanna's most versatile tool for our requirements is going to be {{MiniMoveCard|game=GGST|chara=Giovanna|label=Sepultura {{clr|2|214K}}|input=214K}}, as it provides a {{Keyword|Soft Knockdown|Soft Knockdown}} on hit, and is safe on block in case of a miss confirm. |
| | |
| | Sepultura combos from every grounded normal, the only exception being {{clr|1|5P}} and {{clr|1|2P}} which require the opponent to be crouching, and leaves you advantaged enough to dash up and {{Keyword|meaty|meaty}} the opponent. |
| | |
| | A very good beginner tactic is to buffer {{clr|2|214K}} at the end of a {{Keyword|blockstring|term=Block String}} or after a {{Keyword|poke|poke}} to automatically hit confirm while still being safe on block.<br> |
| | Common examples of this would be: |
| | |
| | <tabber> |
| | Dash Kick Poke = |
| | {{GGST-TheoryBoxLite |
| | |Video= GGST Giovanna Combos KickBeginner.webm |
| | |Autoplay=true |
| | |content= |
| | Giovanna's dash properties paired together with the speed of her {{Prompt|GGST|K}} Normals make for deadly neutral {{Keyword|pokes|term=Poke}} while threatening {{Keyword|tick throws|term=tick throw}}. |
| | |
| | As such, a good string to do after said poke would be the following: |
| | |
| | {{ComboText|(66) {{clr|2|5K}}/{{clr|2|2K}} > {{clr|1|6P}} > {{clr|2|214K}}}} |
| | |
| | This string not only works as a combo, but it also doubles as a {{Keyword|frametrap|term=frame trap}} tool thanks to the {{clr|1|6P}} gatling; all while staying safe thanks to {{clr|2|214K}}. |
| | |
| | The only downside to this string is that {{clr|2|214K}} may whiff at further distances or when you lack dash momentum.<br> |
| | Be assured that even in those cases, {{clr|1|6P}}'s knockdown won't leave you punishable. |
| | }} |

| | Mashing with Punches = |
| | {{GGST-TheoryBoxLite |
| | |Video=GGST Giovanna Combos PunchBeginner.webm |
| | |Autoplay=True |
| | |content= |
| | Giovanna's {{Prompt|GGST|P}} Normals are her fastest attacks at 4 ({{MiniMoveCard|game=GGST|chara=Giovanna|label={{clr|1|5P}}|input=5P}}) and 5 ({{MiniMoveCard|game=GGST|chara=Giovanna|label={{clr|1|2P}}|input=2P}}) frames.<br> |
| | This makes them ideal buttons to use as {{Keyword|abare|term=abare}} or during {{Keyword|stagger pressure}}. |
| | |
| | You can use the following string for either of those purposes: |
| | |
| | {{ComboText|{{clr|1|5P}}/{{clr|1|2P}} > {{clr|1|6P}} > {{clr|2|214K}}}} |
| | |
| | Similar to the 'Dash Kick Poke' combo, you'll be frametrapping with {{clr|1|6P}} all the while keeping yourself safe on block with {{clr|2|214K}}. |
| | |
| | Once again, be wary of {{clr|2|214K}} whiffing at further ranges or if lacking dash momentum. Furthermore, if you hit more than one {{clr|1|5P}}/{{clr|1|2P}}, {{clr|2|214K}} will always whiff, in those situations though you can salvage it with a [[#6P_Knockdown|{{clr|1|6P}} knockdown.]] |

| | |Autoplay = true |
| | |content= |
| | Although Giovanna's {{Prompt|GGST|K}} Normals make for great {{Keyword|pokes|term=Poke}}, she also has other great pokes with slightly different purposes available. |
| | |
| | While being higher committal options, {{MiniMoveCard|game=GGST|chara=Giovanna|label={{clr|4|5H}}|input=5H}} and {{MiniMoveCard|game=GGST|chara=Giovanna|label={{clr|5|2D}}|input=2D}} are such examples. These sport bigger range, control different spaces and have higher reward on counterhit. |
| | |
| | {{ComboText|{{clr|4|5H}}/{{clr|5|2D}} > {{clr|2|214K}}}} |
| | |
| | When poking with these attacks or controlling the space in front of you, buffering {{clr|2|214K}} is both a way to convert into a knockdown and stay safe on block. |

| | Basic Pressure Sequence = |
| | {{GGST-TheoryBoxLite |
| | |Video=GGST Giovanna Combos PressureBeginner.webm |
| | |Autoplay = true |
| | |content= |
| | Following your basic gatlings, starting from {{clr|3|c.S}} is an extremely common way of applying your pressure to the opponent, and it works particularly well for Giovanna.<br> |
| | Thus, following this basic string is particularly effective, as it confirms automatically into a knockdown: |
| | |
| | {{ComboText|{{clr|3|c.S}} > (dl.) {{clr|3|f.S}}/{{clr|3|2S}} > (dl.) {{clr|4|5H}} > (dl.) {{clr|2|214K}}}} |
| | |
| | You can choose to delay your buttons to {{Keyword|frame trap|term=frame trap}} the opponent, and then go in for a throw once you've conditioned them to block. You can also choose to reset your pressure, since most of Giovanna's buttons aren't very {{Keyword|negative|term=On-Block}}.<br> |
| | Using {{clr|3|2S}} is also generally recommended, as the opponent has to block it while crouching. |
| | |
| | Once you confirm that one of your attacks has connected, not delaying makes the combo easier. |

| | As mentioned in the previous examples, combos that end with (...) > {{clr|1|6P}} > {{clr|2|214K}} might be prone to whiffing based on distance to the opponent; thus not allowing you to press your advantage. |
| | |
| | Here is where {{MiniMoveCard|game=GGST|chara=Giovanna|label={{clr|1|6P}}|input=6P}} comes in handy, as it also provides a soft knockdown.<br> |
| | While by itself {{clr|1|6P}}'s knockdown is less advantageous than {{MiniMoveCard|game=GGST|chara=Giovanna|label=Sepultura's|input=214K}}, you can cancel it into {{clr|4|214H}}~{{clr|2|6K}} to get a meaty {{clr|2|en236K}} which guard crushes the opponent and leaves Giovanna extremely {{Keyword|plus|plus}}. |
| | |
| | The only downside of this method is that {{clr|1|6P}} is punishable on block, as such you're either required to hit confirm into it or rapidly cancel into {{clr|2|214K}} to keep yourself safe.<br> |

| | Practice inputting {{clr|1|6P}} only on hit, while leaving other pressure options open on block.<br> |

| | <strong>Basic Theory</strong> will explore some fundamental elements of Giovanna's combo structure that are still accessible at lower levels of execution. They will mostly be limited to combos that work on every character and in every screen position. |
| | Furthermore, they will also delve deeper into the {{Keyword|okizeme|term=okizeme}} situation after a combo. |
| | |
| | This section is thus for players who have gotten comfortable with beginner combos, or players who are familiar with the game but are trying out Giovanna for the first time. <br> |
| | This does not mean that the theory here is useless for more advanced players, quite the opposite actually, as the theory presented here lays the groundwork for her more elaborate rounds. Furthermore, in many occasions a 'basic combo' is the best you can get without spending resources. |
| | }} |
| | |
| | {{card |
| | |header=Routing into okizeme |
| | |content= |
| | Giovanna has access to very strong {{Keyword|oki|term=okizeme}} options after her knockdowns. An important focus of Basic Theory will be teaching you how to consciously choose an appropriate oki option based on {{tt|matchup|The characters you and your opponent choose}} and situation. |
| | |
| | The most important factor to be conscious of is the opponent having an invincible reversal available for usage, be it meterless or metered, as this invalidates her strongest oki option in {{clr|2|en236K}}.<br> |
| | Thankfully, Giovanna has easily accessible safejumps, but when these aren't available you'll be forced to RPS with the opponent on wakeup. |

| | As just preempted, Enhanced Trovao {{MiniMoveCard|game=GGST|chara=Giovanna|label=[[link-to-oki|{{clr|2|en236K}}]]|input=236K}} is Giovanna's strongest okizeme option. As it is a +15 guard crush, you'll be able to do an {{tt|almost true|Since Giovanna doesn't have a command grab, it means the opponent can technically delay throw tech.<br>{{clr|3|2S}}' multihit nature is very good at stuffing such attempts.}} strike-throw 50/50, dash up {{clr|3|c.S}} to crank the opponent's RISC, or even go for high-low mixups with tension. |
| | |
| | The only weakness this option has is its slow and reactable startup, clocking in at 41 frames of total startup (14 of {{MiniMoveCard|game=GGST|chara=Giovanna|label=Chave|input=214H}} and 27 of {{MiniMoveCard|game=GGST|chara=Giovanna|label=Trovao|input=236K}}); meaning it can't always be accessed and that it's weak to invincible reversals. |
| | |
| | Common ways to access it are after knockdowns caused by normals, such as {{clr|5|2D}} or {{clr|1|6P}}, or when hitting the enemy airborne with {{clr|4|5H}}. |

| | Safejumps are the obvious answer to characters with DPs or with meter available. |
| | |
| | Her most common safejumps usually consist of an IAD {{clr|4|j.H}}, though at times you might see a simple 'forward jump' 9 followed by a falling {{clr|4|j.H}}, or even a crossup {{clr|2|j.K}} to keep the opponent on their toes. |
| | |
| | She has access to them after a good portion of her knockdowns, most important of which are airhit {{clr|2|214K}} knockdowns (though usually limited for short combos). |

| | Some knockdowns, in particular after stray hits or punishes confirmed into a grounded {{clr|2|214K}}, you won't be able to access the two previously mentioned options. |
| | |
| | In those cases, thanks to Giovanna's incredible dash speed, you're able to dash up and {{Keyword|meaty|term=meaty}} the opponent.<br> |
| | If close enough to the opponent (usually within held dash distance) you can meaty {{clr|3|c.S}}.<br> |
| | If further away, you can choose between timing a spaced meaty {{clr|5|2D}} to be up to +1 on block and even beat some reversals, {{clr|3|f.S}} to catch the opponent backdashing or {{clr|3|2S}} for a multi-hitting low. |

| | |content = |
| | Sepultura {{clr|2|214K}} is the easiest to access knockdown move Giovanna has, as it combos from every grounded normal except for {{clr|1|5P}} and {{clr|1|2P}}, which require the opponent to be crouching.<br> |
| | This is thanks to its speed paired with its big range. |
| | |
| | Sepultura will usually be used as a frametrap tool and a safe {{Keyword|blockstring|term=block string}} ender. And with the right delay, you can make it combo from the previous normal while still frametrapping. |
| | |
| | You can also hitconfirm some higher level normals like {{clr|4|5H}} and {{clr|4|2H}} into a {{clr|2|214K}} knockdown.<br> |
| | Be wary that hitconfirming launching normals like {{clr|5|2D}} or {{clr|1|6P}} will usually result in an {{keyword|OTG|term=otg}} hit or a whiff. |
| | }} |
| | |header2=<small>Basic Okizeme</small> |
| | |content2= |
| | The downside to having such a powerful tool is that the {{Keyword|oki|term=okizeme}} it provides is comparably weak to others she has access too.<br> |
| | This does NOT mean it's bad oki at all, in fact she has multiple {{keyword|meaty|term=meaty}} options available, and at times even safejumps. |
| | |
| | When hitting {{clr|2|214K}} on a grounded opponent, depending on distance to your opponent and combo decay, you can dash up meaty {{clr|3|c.S}}. If you're not in range for {{clr|3|c.S}} you have other options like {{clr|3|f.S}}/{{clr|3|2S}}/{{clr|5|2D}} available.<br> |
| | Yet another option which doesn't require dash timing and isn't spacing dependent is simply doing a meaty {{clr|2|236K}}, though compared to the other options it's more susceptible to FD while also being reactable. |

| | Meanwhile, if you hit the opponent airborne, you'll be more plus, meaning you can afford to dash in {{clr|3|c.S}} at further ranges. <br> |

| | |
| | Another benefit is that it allows you to hitconfirm your hits into a knockdown as you won't have to worry about having your '''(...) > {{clr|1|6P}} > {{clr|2|214K}}''' whiffing because the combo was too scaled.<br> |

| | |
| | When hitconfirming into it against characters that can beat {{clr|2|en236K}} oki, be it with a DP or without, you'll have to RPS between a meaty {{clr|5|2D}} (which given {{clr|1|6P}}'s low frame advantage will leave you far away), or a delayed {{clr|3|f.S}} to catch backdash. |

| | As with most of the cast, Giovanna's {{clr|1|5P}} and {{clr|1|2P}} are her fastest buttons.<br> |
| | That, paired with their ability to self gatling, means they are both great abare, stagger pressure and occiasional punish tools. |
| | |
| | Since they both combo into {{clr|1|6P}}, you can reliably access {{clr|2|en236K}} okizeme while hitconfirming. |
| | Alternatively, against DP characters you can autopilot into {{clr|1|6P}} > {{clr|2|214K}} and have a safejump available. |
| | |
| | It is important to differentiate the situation and matchup you're in to choose which option to go for, even moreso in punish situations. |

| | Giovanna's {{clr|2|5K}}/{{clr|2|2K}} are some of her signature neutral, pressure and punishing tools.<br> |
| | They're both amazing pokes, setup strike-throw during pressure, and their speed coupled with their range, {{clr|2|2K}}'s in particular, allow for easy punishes. |
| | |
| | During pressure, {{clr|1|6P}} and {{clr|5|2D}} are your go-to gatlings for frametraps. {{clr|1|6P}} combos naturally, while {{clr|5|2D}} requires a CH. |
| | |
| | On offense, you can usually hitconfirm the {{clr|2|5K}} > {{clr|1|6P}} for {{clr|2|en236K}} oki, and cancel into {{clr|2|214K}} on block to keep yourself safe. |
| | Alternatively, against DP characters you can autopilot into {{clr|1|6P}} > {{clr|2|214K}} and have a safejump available on hit.<br> |
| | With the {{clr|5|2D}} gatling, you can hitconfirm CH {{clr|2|5K}} > {{clr|5|2D}} into a delayed {{clr|2|en236K}} for oki, or cancelling into {{clr|2|214K}} for an autotimed safejump (since {{clr|5|2D}} HKDs, you can manually time a safejump as well). |
| | |
| | When punishing unsafe cancels, cancelling into {{clr|2|214K}} is your go-to knockdown option, especially at tip {{clr|2|2K}} range.<br> |

| | Since both {{clr|2|5K}} and {{clr|2|2K}} have a 6 frame startup, they're commonly used to punish unsafe cancels (such as I-no's {{clr|3|236S}} and Leo's {{clr|3|236S}}).<br> |
| | {{clr|2|2K}} is usually preferred since it has further range than {{clr|2|5K}}, and it's then cancelled into {{clr|2|214K}} for a knockdown.<br> |
| | If close enough, you can choose to go for a {{clr|1|6P}} knockdown for {{clr|2|en236K}} oki; or if really close range even for a {{clr|1|6P}} > {{clr|2|214K}} for a safejump. |

| | While {{clr|4|5H}} is an excellent poke in its own right, it has big reward only on counterhit or if extended via resources. This means that if hit normally, it leaves a lot to be desired. |

| | |
| | Compared to other pokes that are unsafe on block, as {{clr|5|2D}} can be spaced to be outside of punish range, and as it hard knockdowns on hit, buffering it into {{clr|2|214K}} is rarely the best option.<br> |

| | Although Giovanna's jump normals aren't outstanding when compared to other characters in the case, they definitely have their uses. Some of which are: |

| | |
| | What is important to note is that if you hit the opponent when close enough to the ground, you'll be advantaged enough to link into a grounded normal, be it {{clr|2|2K}}, {{clr|1|5P}} or {{clr|3|c.S}} (though the options other than {{clr|2|2K}} tend to be more situational and require more awareness, which will not be covered in '''Basic Theory''').<br> We can then follow those grounded normals to get a knockdown. |

| | Giovanna's {{clr|4|2H}} {{clr|3|214S}} juggles are some of her most defining combo elements. |
| | |
| | These deal high damage and build a lot of tension, all while having relatively low execution requirements. Their biggest drawback is that they require particular hits to be accessed. |
| | |
| | They aim to get an extremely high launch with the first hit of {{clr|3|214S}}, and then link into a {{clr|3|c.S}} (or rarely a {{clr|2|5K}}) to continue comboing, oftentimes following it up with yet another '''{{clr|4|2H}} > {{clr|3|214S}}'''.<br> |
| | To actually connect the first hit of {{clr|3|214S}}, the opponent needs to be behind Giovanna, which is only possible thanks to the vacuum effect on {{clr|4|2H}}. In particular, on airhit {{clr|4|2H}}, it launches the opponent behind Giovanna just as needed. |

| | |Video=GGST_Giovanna_Combos_2H_backwards_launch.webm |
| | |content= |
| | As just mentioned, {{clr|4|2H}} requires the opponent to be airborne for it to launch behind the opponent. |
| | Thankfully, Giovanna possesses a perfect tool to complement this in her {{clr|3|c.S}}. As it causes a floating crumple on hit, it temporarily launches the enemy, just enough time for {{clr|4|2H}} to connect airborne.<br> |
| | As the gatling needs to be immediate, hitconfirming a stray {{clr|3|c.S}} into an airborne {{clr|4|2H}} is impossible; thus requiring you to either immediately gatling or to be punishing the opponent. |
| | |
| | {{clr|3|c.S}} is not the only normal you'll normally access {{clr|4|2H}} {{clr|3|214S}} loops from. For example, immediately following {{clr|3|c.S}} with a {{clr|3|f.S}}/{{clr|3|2S}} gatling, will keep the enemy airborne on hit, meaning you can combo into '''{{clr|4|2H}} > {{clr|3|214S}}''' there too. |

| | As mentioned before, while {{clr|3|en623S}}' launch allows Giovanna to keep comboing, we will instead use it for its knockdown.<br> |
| | Since it gives a soft knockdown, the frame advantage differs depending on how scaled the combo is. Generally speaking though, you'll be advantaged enough to choose between {{clr|2|en236K}} oki, a safejump or a meaty {{clr|3|c.S}}. |
| | |
| | To get a properly meaty {{clr|2|en236K}}, you'll have to immediately input '''{{clr|4|214H}}~{{clr|2|6K}}'''. |
| | |
| | For the safejump, given the high frame advantage you can do '''microdash forward jump falling {{clr|4|j.H}}''', which can enable more mix compared to its '''IAD {{clr|4|j.H}}''' counterpart while still being safe from DPs. |
| | |
| | Choosing a meaty {{clr|3|c.S}} is a good choice in match-ups that beat {{clr|2|en236K}} oki without a DP, or in very scaled combos that end with {{clr|3|en623S}} when you aren't sure about your frame advantage. |

| | |content= |
| | Giovanna's {{clr|3|c.S}} is her best combo starter, especially when punishing the opponent after an unsafe special move or an invincible overdrive. (As meterless reversals have CH recovery, there's more choices to be had) |
| | |
| | Thanks to having a guaranteed hit, you can immediately go into {{clr|4|2H}} {{clr|3|214S}} juggles. In particular you should be using the enhanced version of Sol Poente {{clr|3|en214S}} since it deals more damage and allows the follow-up combo to be easier. |
| | |
| | |
| | {{ComboText|{{clr|3|c.S}} (> {{clr|3|f.S}}/{{clr|3|2S}}) > {{clr|4|2H}} > {{clr|4|214H}}~{{clr|3|4S}}[6], {{clr|3|c.S}} > {{clr|4|2H}}, {{clr|3|c.S}} > {{clr|4|2H}} > {{clr|3|214S}}/{{clr|4|214H}}~{{clr|3|4S}} (> OTG)}} |
| | |
| | As said above this is usually a punish combo, but if you where to gatling into {{clr|3|f.S}}/{{clr|3|2S}} immediately and hit a stray {{clr|3|c.S}}, you can hitconfirm into the rest of the combo. |
| | |
| | Thanks to the low combo decay, you can pickup with '''{{clr|3|c.S}} > {{clr|4|2H}}, {{clr|3|c.S}} > {{clr|4|2H}} > ...''', which deals high amounts of damage and tension while requiring very little in terms of execution. |
| | |
| | After the last {{clr|4|2H}}, you can choose between {{clr|3|214S}} and {{clr|3|en214S}}; the first keeps sides while the second side-switches.<br> |
| | The same logic applies to the first {{clr|3|en214S}}, though substituting that one is less recommendable.<br> |
| | Generally speaking some experimentation is required to get comfortable with {{clr|3|214S}}' trajectory. |
| | |
| | For okizeme you can either delay {{clr|2|en236K}} for guard crush oki or hit an '''OTG {{clr|3|c.S}}''' and choose between '''jc IAD {{clr|4|j.H}}''' or dash cancel meaty {{clr|3|c.S}}. |

| | |content= |
| | Giovanna's {{Prompt|GGST|S}} {{clr|3|Slash}} Normals each have their different uses, which rarely overlap. Nonetheless, the combos you have access to are nearly the same, with the biggest difference being initial combo decay (which isn't impactful for '''Basic Theory'''). |
| | *{{clr|3|c.S}} is your pressure starter and primary punish tool. |
| | *{{clr|3|f.S}} is a risky neutral and pressure reset tool, that when paired with Giovanna's dash momentum, has extremely good reward on hit. |
| | *{{clr|3|2S}} is an incredible double-hitting low, that is an essential tool for Giovanna's strike-throw gameplan. |
| | |
| | {{clr|3|f.S}} and {{clr|3|2S}} are easy to hitconfirm, given their multi-hitting nature; while {{clr|3|c.S}} is harder to hitconfirm, though still possible given its high attack level.<br> |
| | On hit, learning to confirm whether you are within {{clr|4|2H}} becomes an important skill, since that allows you to get an [[#Enhanced_Sol_Nascente_en623S_Knockdown|{{clr|3|en623S}} launch]].<br> |
| | On block or outside of {{clr|4|2H}} range, you'll have to confirm into '''{{clr|4|5H}} > {{clr|2|214K}}'''. |

| | |content= |
| | Basic close range {{Prompt|GGST|S}} {{clr|3|Slash}} confirm into a knockdown. When you're in {{clr|4|2H}} range it'll usually be thanks to dash momentum, as raw without it can very easily make {{clr|4|2H}} unless at point blank. |
| | |
| | Utilizes the fact that {{clr|4|2H}} combos into {{clr|3|en623S}}, though requiring quick cancels.<br> |
| | While you could pick-up the combo and continue it for high amounts of damage, that is beyond the scope of '''Basic Theory'''. |
| | |
| | For okizeme, you can choose between {{clr|2|en236K}}, a '''66~9 falling {{clr|4|j.H}}''' safejump or simply dash up meaty {{clr|3|c.S}}. |

| | Confirm off of a far ranged {{clr|3|f.S}}/{{clr|3|2S}} hit. Sadly when outside of {{clr|4|2H}} range, Giovanna's {{Prompt|GGST|S}} {{clr|3|Slash}} buttons have very little reward, especially okizeme wise. |
| | |
| | Given the distance and scaling of a combo, the knockdown provided by {{clr|2|214K}} will leave you too far away to get a meaty {{clr|3|c.S}}. This means you'll have to choose between {{clr|3|f.S}}/{{clr|3|2S}}/{{clr|5|2D}}/{{clr|2|236K}}. |

| Another combo that you can land off of {{clr|4|6H}}, assuming you have ~40 tension. Works from the same distance as the above combo and does a bit more damage. Some notes are that doing {{clr|2|236K}} too quickly or with the opponent too high off the ground can cause them to bounce off the wall and over your head, so delay parts of the sequence after 66PRC as needed. Additionally, doing this combo in the corner or if the opponent hits the wall before {{clr|2|236K}}, {{clr|3|c.S}} will cause the wallsplat instead of {{clr|2|214K}}, in which case just go straight to {{clr|5|5[D]}}.

| | ==Combo Theory== |
| | ===<big>Overview</big>=== |
| | Giovanna is known for her high and consistent damage. While most of her combos end with {{MMC|game=GGST|input=214K|chara=Giovanna|label={{clr|K|214K}}}}, once she manages to get the enemy into her {{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|214S}} {{Keyword|BnB}}, she has great freedom to choose between routes for high damage, tension gain, positioning, and {{Keyword|okizeme}}. |
| | ===Combo Structure=== |
| | ====Corner Combos==== |
| | Giovanna's optimal corner route. Can be done on it's own or linking it from a [[#The_Juggles|juggle]]. They deal more damage while having slightly less Tension build than {{clr|S|214S}} loops. |
| | {{TheoryBox |
| | |Title={{clr|H|5H}} > {{clr|H|214H}}~{{clr|S|623S}} Loops |

| | |Recipe=Starter > ({{clr|H|5H}} > {{clr|H|214H}}~{{clr|S|623S}})xN WS |
| | |content= Thanks to {{clr|H|5H}}'s wall bounce and {{MiniMoveCard|label={{clr|S|en623S}}|input=623S}}'s launch, Giovanna can loop this for enormous damage. |
| | |
| | Because both moves have low wall damage, an extra {{clr|S|c.S}} may be necessary to wall stick. |
| | }} |
| | |
| | ===<big>Enders</big>=== |
| | <tabber> |
| | 214K Ender = |
| | {{TheoryBox |
| | |Title={{clr|K|214K}} Knockdown |
| | |Oneliner=A knockdown is never a bad thing |
| | |content= {{Warning|1=The changes to {{clr|K|214K}}'s knockdown properties mean that this section requires revision}} |
| | {{clr|K|214K}} makes space between Giovanna and her opponent, which becomes even more advantageous if the enemy is hit airborne, since it leaves them much closer allowing Giovanna's offense to continue. |
| | |
| | The most common routes which lead into it are: |
| | * ... > {{clr|P|6P}} > {{clr|K|214K}} |
| | ** Both CH and regular {{clr|P|6P}} launch on hit, leading to an airborne {{clr|K|214K}} hit. |
| | * ( ... ) > {{clr|D|2D}} > {{clr|K|214K}} |
| | ** {{clr|D|2D}} launches on hit, though when hit as a CH it leads to much more damaging conversions. |
| | * ... > {{clr|H|5H}} > {{clr|K|214K}} |
| | ** Usually comboed into grounded or hitconfirmed off a raw {{clr|H|5H}}, doesn't lead to safejump oki unless in the corner, but it is still a hard knockdown. |
| | * ( ... ) > {{clr|K|5K}} > {{clr|K|214K}} |
| | ** Used to either punish unsafe moves at range or linked into thanks to CH or {{clr|K|236K}} extensions, usually on grounded opponents. |
| | }} |
| | <!--I'd say video pending but this part is gonna change anyways for S3--> |
| | |-| |
| | 236K extensions = |
| | {{TheoryBox |
| | |Title= {{clr|K|236K}} extensions |
| | |Oneliner=Squeezing more of everything out of a non-launcher |
| | |content= Oftentimes Giovanna can get non-launching Mid and Large counter hits during pressure, which sadly do not lead into her best conversions, be it because of distance or screen position. |
| | We can still get more damage, corner-carry and tension build by utilizing {{clr|K|236K}}, then linking it into a {{clr|K|214K}} knockdown. |
| | |
| | Most commonly |
| | CH {{clr|S|f.S}}/{{clr|S|2S}}/{{clr|H|5H}} > {{clr|K|236K}} > ... |
| | be aware that for {{clr|S|f.S}} and {{clr|S|2S}} you need to gatling into {{clr|K|236K}} on the hit you got the CH on. |
| | |
| | The type of counter hit and delay into the {{clr|K|236K}} change what you can link it into, your two options are: |
| | * ... > {{clr|K|236K}}, {{clr|K|5K}} > {{clr|K|214K}} |
| | ** Works anytime, even on raw {{clr|K|236K}} hits |
| | * ... > {{clr|K|236K}}, {{clr|S|f.S}} > {{clr|H|5H}} > {{clr|K|214K}} |
| | ** Leverages the extended slowdown properties of Large counter hits (if you delay the {{clr|K|236K}} too much you might not be plus enough for the link to work) |
| | }} |
| | </tabber> |
| | |
| | ====The Juggles==== |
| | The combos where Giovanna's high damage really shine. They usually comprise a launcher, and various combo pieces with lots of variety when it comes to the juggles itself. The great part about Giovanna's juggle combos is the amount of freedom and choices you have; allowing you to link juggles into each other to maximize damage, screen position or even go for a wallbreak. |
| | {{TheoryBox |
| | |Title=Launchers |
| | |Oneliner =Be ready to cash out big |
| | |content= |
| | Launchers are the hits that enable Giovanna to get her conversions, some are very consistent while others can highly depend on distance to the opponent, so always be ready to {{Keyword|hitconfirm|term=hit confirm}}. |
| | While her most important launchers can be used anywhere, it's important to know when you can link into one or utilize the wall to get a launcher not otherwise available |
| | <tabber> |
| | Anywhere = |
| | All of these launchers will let you get at least one juggle, with some even allowing to link into another, or at least continue the combo at the expense of some {{Keyword|oki|term=okizeme}}. |
| | |
| | *{{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|214S}}, ... |
| | ** Your most common punish starter that can't otherwise be directly hitconfirmed into {{clr|H|2H}}. The {{clr|H|2H}} must be gatlinged immediately to hit during the airborne part of {{clr|S|c.S}}' floating crumple. |
| | *CH {{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|2H}}/{{clr|D|5[D]}}, ... |
| | ** Thanks to the counter hit slowdown, both of these combos launch on their own and can be directly linked into a juggle part without needing an immediate {{clr|S|214S}}. While {{clr|D|5[D]}} is usually the optimal way to go thanks to it's higher damage and lower wall damage, the combos after it require harder execution than it's {{clr|H|2H}} counterpart; furthermore {{clr|H|2H}} allows an immediate side swap. |
| | *CH {{clr|S|623S}}, ... |
| | **Very high reward off a pseudo-DP move and great anti-air. Grounded counter hit sends them quite far horizontally, but still close enough for a juggle after a dash. When anti-airing the launch can vary wildly in horizontal and vertical distance, with the followup dash sometimes crossing up and messing up your links, it is recommended to try these out in various situations to convert more consistently |
| | *CH {{clr|D|2D}} > {{clr|K|214K}}, ... |
| | ** Leverages the extended slowdown of a Large counter hit to link after the {{clr|K|214K}}. Depending on the distance to the opponent linking some juggles might be much harder or outright impossible; once again trying these out is recommended. |
| | *CH {{clr|K|214K}}, ... |
| | ** Usually allows much shorter juggles or none at all, but at close range or with dash momentum you can sometimes pick it up with a damaging conversion. |
| | *CH {{clr|H|5H}}/{{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|623S}}, ... |
| | **Leverages the Large counter hit slowdown and higher vertical launch provided by {{clr|S|623S}} to link into a juggle, requires to be within {{clr|S|623S}}' range. |
| | |-| |
| | Corner = |
| | Apart from allowing easier links into juggles compared to those described in the 'anywhere' section; some further launches are available thanks to the wall stopping the enemy closer to Giovanna. |
| | |
| | *CH {{clr|S|f.S(1)}}/{{clr|S|2S(1)}} > {{clr|S|623S}}, ... |
| | **Once again leveraging counter hit slowdown to allow a juggle after the {{clr|S|623S}} launch thanks to the wall leaving the opponent much closer. You need to gatling into {{clr|S|623S}} on the hit that counter-hits (usually the first one), otherwise the slowdown will run out too soon to allow for a link. |
| | *CH {{clr|D|2D}} > {{clr|K|236K}}, ... |
| | **The higher damage counterpart to {{clr|K|214K}}, though the difference is so minimal that auto-piloting into {{clr|K|214K}} is oftentimes easier. |
| | |-| |
| | Linking into launchers = |
| | Off certain hits, it's possible for Giovanna to link into one of the previously talked launchers, usually {{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|214S}}. |
| | |
| | Jump-ins can at times link into {{clr|S|c.S}}, though depending on how many hits and knockback it'll be too far to reliably combo into {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|214S}}. Furthermore as jump-ins have higher initial scaling it'll make the juggles harder. |
| | The following ones should work the most consistently. |
| | *IAD {{clr|H|j.H}}, {{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|214S}}, ... |
| | **Also works from 9jump falling {{clr|H|j.H}} as a safejump after throw |
| | *CH {{clr|S|j.S}}/{{clr|H|j.H}}/{{clr|D|j.D}}, {{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|214S}}, ... |
| | **All of these attacks have a Mid counter hit effect, giving plenty of time to microdash to guarantee the {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|214S}} pickup. {{clr|K|j.K}} can sometimes work but it needs to be low and really close, you're usually better off going for {{clr|K|5K}}. |
| | |
| | After certain grounded CH that leave you particularly close or with dash momentum. |
| | *CH {{clr|P|5P}}/{{clr|P|2P}}, {{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|214S}}, ... |
| | ** Hard to hitconfirm if not a complete wishconfirm, though it can be a solid string to do as {{Keyword|abare|term=abare}} if the enemy is close enough for {{clr|S|c.S}} to connect. |
| | * 66 CH {{clr|K|5K}}/{{clr|K|2K}}, {{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|214S}}, ... |
| | **Requires dash momentum, and is slightly easier to hitconfirm than it's {{clr|P|5P}}/{{clr|P|2P}} counterpart. Notably {{clr|K|5K}} scales combos less than jump-ins, {{clr|P|5P}}/{{clr|P|2P}} and {{clr|K|2K}}, allowing for easier conversions. |
| | * CH {{clr|H|2H}}/{{clr|H|6H}}/{{clr|H|6HH}}, {{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|214S}}, ... |
| | ** Though doing either {{clr|H|2H}}/{{clr|H|6H}} in blockstrings is generally a blunder, they do give good reward on counter hit. Same as {{clr|K|5K}} they have better initial scaling than other attacks. |
| | *CH {{clr|K|236K}}, 66 {{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|S|f.S(2)}} > {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|214S}}, ... |
| | ** Projectile punish on a read, otherwise a fairly uncommon starter. Though linking into a juggle is possible and does more damage, simply doing {{clr|S|f.S}} > {{clr|H|5H}} > {{clr|K|214K}} gives a safejump that guaranteed works against all reversals, whereas after a juggle it might not. |
| | </tabber> |
| | }} |
| | {{TheoryBox |
| | |Title=Air Juggles |
| | |Oneliner=Combine these like a puzzle |
| | |content= |
| | Giovanna's air juggle combos function as discrete pieces that can be mixed and matched to create a combo with the desired outcome. |
| | <tabber> |
| | 214S loops = |
| | Good for building tension and dealing damage. {{clr|S|214S}} also gives a hard knockdown and leaves the opponent close by enough for safejump okizeme. |
| | |
| | *{{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|214S}} ... |
| | |
| | Heavies used to require this variation for loops, but no longer as of season 3's patch changes to weight. It can pick up the combo when the opponent is a little too far away for the normal route. |
| | *{{clr|S|f.S(2)}} > {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|S|214S}} ... |
| | |
| | In most situations it is possible to loop this combo twice. This can be made easier by holding [6] after the first {{clr|S|214S}} to steer Giovanna's trajectory, which will cause her to land closer to her opponent. This steering can also sideswitch in many situations by holding either [4] or [6] during {{clr|S|214S}}. |
| | |-| |
| | Air-routing = |
| | Air routing has a lot of variation, though it's usually comprised of doing {{clr|H|j.H}} > (dl.) {{clr|D|j.D}} after a jump cancellable normal, then landing and ending the combo into a wall stick. |
| | |
| | Most commonly you're going to link into these after one {{clr|S|214S}} loop with a microdash {{clr|K|5K}} |
| | * ... > {{clr|S|214S}}[4], 66 {{clr|K|5K}}/{{clr|S|c.S}} > 9jc > {{clr|H|j.H}} > (dl.) {{clr|D|j.D}}, (land and choose ender) |
| | ** Holding [4] is to avoid a sideswap and messing up the dash {{clr|K|5K}} pickup. {{clr|K|5K}} is usually preferred over {{clr|S|c.S}} as it makes the pickup more consistent at the cost of some damage. The delay before {{clr|D|j.D}} is done to hit the {{clr|D|j.D}} closer to the ground and link with the ender more easily. |
| | |
| | For other launchers you'll instead have to choose between the air routing or doing a {{clr|S|214S}} loop, usually when the combo is quite scaled or has a faraway and low launch. At times air routing from these starters only work in the corner too. |
| | *CH ... > {{clr|K|214K}}/{{clr|S|623S}}, 66 {{clr|K|5K}} > 9jc > {{clr|H|j.H}} > (dl.) {{clr|D|j.D}}, (land and choose ender) |
| | ** Consult the launchers page to know which ones work. {{clr|S|c.S}} is extremely inconsistent so it should be avoided. The delay before {{clr|D|j.D}} is rarely necessary but can help with stabilizing the ender. |
| | |
| | When it comes to enders after you land you have {{clr|H|5H}}, or {{clr|K|5K}} for extremely scaled combos. Since air combos are usually done when going for wallbreak you'll usually wallstick with either of these or the {{clr|K|214K}} gatling. |
| | * ... > j.D, land {{clr|H|5H}}/{{clr|K|5K}} > {{clr|K|214K}} |
| | ** If {{clr|K|214K}} still doesn't wallstick you'll be able to OTG safejump, but be aware that for very scaled combos you might not be safe against 9f reversals. |
| | |-| |
| | 6HHH extensions = |
| | {{clr|H|6H}} and it's followups can be a great tool for obtaining extra damage and cornercarry in exchange for oki; or going for wallbreak during a very scaled wallbreak. |
| | As {{clr|H|6HHH}} still provides a hard knockdown with it's considerably easier execution it can still be a great option; the only real caveat is that you might have to delay the various followups to make them connect and increase cornercarry. |
| | |
| | The situations where you can extend with {{clr|H|6HHH}} are whenever you can get a pickup with {{clr|K|5K}}, with dash momentum or not, and it's usually |
| | |
| | *..., {{clr|K|5K}}/{{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|6H}} > dl.{{clr|H|6HH}} > dl.{{clr|H|6HHH}} |
| | **Followups will be notated with {{clr|H|6HH}} and {{clr|H|6HHH}} same as the overview page to better clarify which attack Giovanna is doing. |
| | *..., {{clr|K|5K}}/{{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|6HHH}} |
| | **Just {{clr|H|6HHH}} alone instead indicates doing {{clr|H|6H}} and it's followups without any delay, though this is a more uncommon option. |
| | |
| | Furthermore, {{clr|H|6H}} and {{clr|H|6HH}} are often used to get some extra distance before cancelling them into either Overdrive to get a burst safe wallbreak. |
| | |-| |
| | 5K > 214K pickup = |
| | At times you might be in a situation where you'd want to use a {{clr|H|6HHH}} extension, but don't want to sacrifice your safejump oki. |
| | In those occasions doing {{clr|K|5K}} > {{clr|K|214K}} is likely your only option left. Unfortunately it doesn't provide as much damage or corner carry as other options, but an air hit {{clr|K|214K}} remains the strong tool it is. |
| | </tabber> |
| | }} |
| | |
| | ====Meterless Combos==== |
| | Most of Giovanna's meterless combos route into a few possible enders, most notably {{clr|H|2H}} > {{MMC|game=GGST|input=214S|chara=Giovanna|label={{clr|S|214S}}}}, which leads to an to OTG Safejump; {{clr|H|5H}} > {{MMC|game=GGST|input=214K|chara=Giovanna|label={{clr|K|214K}}}} and {{clr|K|5K}} > {{clr|K|214K}}, which will lead into the OTG safejump if the opponent was airborne, but will knock the opponent back too far if they were grounded; and less commonly, {{clr|K|5K}}/{{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|6HHH}}, which leads to a hard knockdown. |

| | ====Overdrive Combo Enders==== |
| | * Nearly any combo that ends with {{MMC|game=GGST|input=214K|chara=Giovanna|label={{clr|K|214K}}}} can substitute it with {{MiniMoveCard|chara=Giovanna|input=632146H|game=GGST|label={{clr|H|632146H}}}} for increased damage, as well as wallbreak when used close enough to a corner. |
| | * Combos that end with {{clr|H|6HHH}} can usually substitute it for {{clr|H|6H}} > land > {{MiniMoveCard|chara=Giovanna|input=632146H|game=GGST|label={{clr|H|632146H}}}} OR for {{clr|H|6H}} > {{MiniMoveCard|chara=Giovanna|input=j.236236H|game=GGST|label={{clr|H|j.236236H}}}} |
| | |
| | ====Choosing a Wallbreak==== |
| | *When it comes to meterless wallbreaks, Giovanna's most common options are either {{MiniMoveCard|game=GGST|chara=Giovanna|label={{clr|D|5[D]}}|input=5[D]}} or {{MiniMoveCard|game=GGST|chara=Giovanna|label={{clr|K|236K}}|input=236K}}. {{clr|D|5[D]}} is Giovanna's highest damage non overdrive attack, while {{clr|K|236K}} has the advantage of building more tension being a special move. If the enemy splatted on the wall high enough off the ground where neither of the previous options reach, {{clr|H|j.H}} is a fine substitute. |
| | *With tension you have the option to use {{MiniMoveCard|chara=Giovanna|input=632146H|game=GGST|label={{clr|H|632146H}}}} for higher damage and a guaranteed knockdown (+36) after the wallbreak. {{MiniMoveCard|chara=Giovanna|input=j.236236H|game=GGST|label={{clr|H|j.236236H}}}} is also available to obtain said knockdown whenever {{MiniMoveCard|chara=Giovanna|input=632146H|game=GGST|label={{clr|H|632146H}}}} doesn't have enough vertical reach. |
| | |
| | ===OTG and Okizeme=== |
| | Any combo ending in "{{keyword|OTG}}" means you are in range to hit the opponent off the ground with a button. From this she can dash up into an OTG {{clr|K|5K}} or {{clr|S|c.S}} for a safe jump, OTG them with a different button, or wait for the opponents wakeup to hit them meaty. See Giovanna's [[../Okizeme|okizeme page]] for more information. |
| | |
| | Safe Jumps: |
| | * {{comboText|66 {{clr|S|c.S}} OTG > IAD {{clr|H|j.H}}}}: Standard safe jump. Easier to time. |
| | * {{comboText|66 {{clr|K|5K}} OTG > IAD {{clr|H|j.H}}}}: {{clr|K|5K}} safe jump. Harder to connect due to {{clr|K|5K}}'s limited vertical range. |
| | |
| | ===Common RC Routes=== |
| | * To extend your confirms into extra damage/corner carry, you may want to spend 50% meter and use the routes below. Note that these routes assume minimum scaling/wall damage, so the opponent may wallsplat before the points mentioned. |
