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.
