Combo List

All damage values are damage dealt to Sol unless the combo cannot work on him, in which case the character with the closest defense modifier is used.
Damage values listed for combos with interchangeable combo parts assume the highest damage variation unless otherwise stated.
As Zato's combos are very different depending on whether or not Eddie is summoned, Solo Zato combos will be listed first and then conversions possible with Eddie will be listed second.

5P/2P/5K/c.S Solo Zato
Combo	Position	Damage	Tension Gain	Works on:	Difficulty	Notes
5P > c.S > 2D -> [236H to summon Eddie when possible]	Anywhere	48	3-5%	All	[1] Very Easy	Basic hit confirm. Tap 5P c.S and then end on 2D on hit and continue into f.S on block.
5P > c.S > 2H > 22H	Midscreen	108	5-7%	All	[1] Very Easy	Highest damage possible off these starters without running momentum. Prioritize knockdown, but use this combo if needed to finish a round.
Dash -> 5P > c.S > 2S > 5H(3) > 22H	Anywhere	130	18-20%	All	[2] Easy	2K will also work as a starter for this combo. Dash is necessary unless the opponent is directly in front of Zato, as the first active will whiff otherwise, causing the combo to drop.

Additionally, the standard Solo Zato knockdown combo (5P > c.S > 2D -> [236H to summon Eddie when possible]) is ideal after any jump in sequence, such as IAD > j.S > j.H. Omit the c.S in order to ensure that 2D will connect with the opponent at all ranges.
