Testament Specific Notation

Stain

When starting a combo in Stain State, the combo should begin with "Stained" before anything else.

If Testament would complete multiple attacks before the stain explosion (i.e. 2PP followed by stain) then you may notate the Stain explosion as (Stain) if you deem it appropriate. For example;

... 214P > 2PP Stain > 236[H] > etc...

Else, you may assume that after applying Stain mid-combo, that the next attack will always activate the stain explosion.

Grave Reaper

As Grave Reaper has 3 separate levels of charge. The following notation will be used to denote each level of charge;

  • 236S / 236H = Level 1 / No charge
  • 236{S} / 236{H} = Level 2 / Half charge
  • 236[S] / 236[H] = Level 3 / Full charge

Combo List

  • This list is meant for actual combos, not for frame traps, blockstrings, or mixups. If the combo itself allows to set them up afterwards, it is mentioned in the "Notes" field).
  • The list is focused on most practical examples, not every single option that exists.
  • All damage values are damage dealt to Ky unless the combo cannot work on him, in which case the character with the closest defense modifier is used.
  • The difficulty is ranked on a scale of 1 to 5 (Very Easy, Easy, Medium, Hard and Very Hard) based on various factors (cancel leniency, link timings, special techniques, range consistency, etc).

Punch Starters

Combo Position Damage Tension Gain Works on: Difficulty Notes Video Recipe
66 5PPP/2PPP > 6P > ... Not Corner 62/58 +11% All Very Easy Works on all characters both standing and crouching, including Faust. Run momentum is required if you wish to land the 3rd P. 2P has less knockback than 5P, but also less damage, so if you're not point-blank you might wish to do 3 2Ps instead of 2 5Ps for more total damage. Video 36400
6P > 236S Anywhere 81 +9.5% All except AN, BA Very Easy Only works at point-blank range, or with dash momentum. Varies by character. Grave Reaper only lands one hit on I-No. Only works with dash momentum on CH, GI, HA, IN, JC, MI, RA, SO. Video 36402
AA 5P > 236H > 66 5K > 6H > ... Anywhere 94 +15% All Medium You can half-charge the 236H if the opponent is too high to be hit by the slash from Grave Reaper. Video 36404

2H > f.S Anywhere 77 +12% KY Very Easy Surprisingly useful due to 2H being -2 on block and covering a lot of range Video 36419
6H > 236[H] > 66 > c.S > f.S > 5H WS > 214S/214H Corner 226 +25% KY Easy c.S needs to be slightly delayed in order for the opponent to fall into it. 5H can be canceled into an overdrive for an easy overdrive wallbreak. Video 36421
6H > 236[H] > 66 > c.S > 6H > 214S/214H WS > 5H Corner 236 +25% KY Medium A modification of the previous combo. It deals more damage, but it's more difficult to combo into an overdrive due to the wall splatting move being a special instead of a normal. c.S needs to be used early and hit the opponent with the highest part of the hitbox, or else 6H won't connect. Video 36453
6H > 236{H} > 66 c.S > j.S > j.H > j.D WS > 66 (delay) j.D WB Back to Corner 225 - KY Hard Sideswap combo to wallbreak utilising the partially charged Grave Reaper. You might be able to end with 6H for better damage, though j.D is easier to use. Video 36424

CH 6H > 236[H] (2) > 66 c.S > j.S > j.D > j.236S WB Midscreen to corner 227 ~29% KY Medium 6H counterhit midscreen to corner combo. The first hit of j.236S will splat and the projectile will automatically break the wall. Can also run past the opponent after 236[H] to side swap. [1] -
CH 6H > 236[H] (2) > 66 > 6H > 236[H] (2) WS > 6H WB Midscreen to corner 236 ~31% KY Medium DP Punish combo for midscreen 6H CH. works against both grounded and airborne opponents. Timing the dashing 6H can be awkward due to being off camera. Video -
CH 2H > forward jump > j.D > Airdash > j.S > j.D j.236S/j.236H WS > 214S/214H WB Midscreen 221 ~25% All Easy Easy close range 2H counterhit for meterless round start to corner wallbreak. works well with dash momentum. The closer to the corner the opponent is, the less close Testament needs to be on the 2H hit for the combo to work. Can also opt to wallbreak with 6H for more consistency, or 214P for stain state.

5[D]8 > j.H > j.S > jc > j.H > j.S > j.D > j.SS Anywhere 203 20% ALL Very Easy Simple and optimised BnB A staple combo that is simple yet effective. for all characters, but the timing is faster if done in the corner. Video 36428
5[D]8 > j.H > j.D > jc > j.H > j.S > j.D > j.SS Anywhere ~213 22% MA, AX, PO, FA, MI, ZA, RA, LE, NA, GO Easy On half of the cast, you can swap a j.S for a j.D and get away with it. There's no logic for these characters it works on, it just does. Video 36429
5[D]8 > j.H > j.D > jc > j.S > j.H > j.D > j.SS Anywhere ~212 22% SO, GI, IN Easy Sol, Giovanna & I-No Specific Route, swapping the j.S and j.H to make the previous combo work on their wonkier hurtboxes. Video 36430
5[D]8 > j.D > j.S > jc > j.S > j.H > j.S > j.DD Anywhere 208 21% KY, CH, AN, JC, HC, BA, TE Easy The rest of the cast needs a different route to squeeze in more j.D's. Starting with j.D makes the scaling a lot better than the basic BNB, but the rest of the route is vastly different in order to adjust for the pushback. Video 36431
5D > 88RRC > 66 > c.S >5[D] > 5K > 6H > 236S > WS > 214P/super Corner 148 ? Ky Easy Should be universal and can end with super or 214P TBD

CH 2D > 236[H] (2) > 66 > c.S > 2H > 236H (2) WS > 214P Close to corner 188 ~28% All Easy Point blank 2D CH combo. Works on everyone, but heavies need to be closer to the wall, and the timing is much more lenient against lightweights. End with 6H instead if the opponent splats low to the ground, as 214P can whiff at times. Video 46932

6D/4D > 236S Corner 91 TENSION All Very Easy Best OTG option for damage and oki. after 236S projectile hits the opponent you are +23
6D/4D > 66RRC > 236[H] > 66 5K > 6H > 236S WS > [214S] or [214P] Midscreen to Corner 157 or 154 -35% + Positive KY Medium Don't delay 236[H] after Red Roman Cancel Explosion. End with 214P to enter neutral with the opponent in Stain State. Video 36438
6D/4D > dl.66PRC > 66 c.S > 6H > 214S Anywhere 125 All Easy Must let throw animation finish before PRC. Best damage known so far that works anywhere
6D/4D > 66RRC > 66 5[D] > 66 5K > 6H > 214S Anywhere 121 All Easy Lower damage and only useful if you do not like to PRC
6D/4D > 66RRC~c.S > 6H > 236{S}/236[S] WS > 214S WB Corner 167/169 -38.5% KY Medium If the quick RRC is replaced with a regular one, damage is reduced from 166 to 158. Failing the 236{S} half-charge results in the loss of 1 damage. TBD
6D/4D > dl.66PRC > 6H > 236{H} > 66 5H WS > 214H WB Corner 171 -38.5% KY Hard Harder route than the fast RC; the timing for the 66PRC > 6H is fairly tight, and is immediately followed by a half-charged 236{H} . The result is slightly more damage than the fast RRC route with the trade-off that you can't end with 214P because of the succubus position. If you miss the half-charge, the combo is still technically possible, but the 5H juggle is much harder, and results in 169 damage.
