Meterless combos

Currently, damage values tested against Ky
As a rule of thumb, all wall break combos can be ended with Calvados(632146H) or Mortobato(236236S) for more damage and a hard knock down after the wallbreak.
Don't be surprised if your attempts seem to not wallbreak at the same time, wallbreak is a finnicky mechanic that can be affected by distance from the wall or how much you delay your hits. Generally, the end of combos just serves to confirm the wallsplat.

The second c.S adds a bit of damage compared to 5K but is only possible at close range (after a dash), although is near-guaranteed to land with 2H launcher. 214H can be added at the end for extra damage but leaves Ramlethal punishable on hit, only use it if it kills.

Midscreen to corner and Corner combo theory

Ramlethal's win condition is getting the opponent to the corner. Once the opponent is there, she gets suffocating pressure, powerful conversions off almost any hit, and even once she breaks the wall, she is one of the best characters at using positive bonus. With that in mind, it's important to reach the corner as soon as possible. The following sections outlines Ramlethal's near corner combo theory. Most of these routes will need you to know how close you are to the corner, as they'll only work if you aren't too far from it. Of note is the fact these combos often use juggles, which can make them inconsistent due to character weights and gravity scaling. Training mode is your best friend here, though there is nothing wrong with experimenting in a real match. In fact, Ramlethal's corner combos are very free-form, so feel free to get creative ! The "optimal" combo pieces are not even close to necessary, and the most optimal combo is the one you can land consistently.

Corner carry combo pieces

These are combo pieces meant to send the opponent directly to the corner. most of these work from around past roundstart distance, though you should practice the spacings yourself.

Combo Piece	Notes
6H > 236H	easy, consistent corner carry piece. 236H is very easy to follow up on by simply running up.
2H > 236S	anti-burst route. not only is the combo piece itself unburstable, but it lets you make the rest of the combo burst-safe too, due to how high the opponent is.
214P~214P > dc236H	corner carry from rekka hits. Once again, character weight and gravity scaling influence this combo piece. you may have to charge the second rekka (see the Erarlumo section), use 236S instead of 236H, etc. There are many different scenarios, so you are encouraged to experiment and practice.
6H > 214K	more difficult, but more damaging combo piece. Depending on the opponent's weight, gravity scaling of the combo, and distance to the corner, the 214K might need to be delayed. This is a fairly unstable piece, and it's recommended you practice where and when it works first. With that said, it's in theory the optimal combo piece from 6H. Once again, you are encouraged to experiment to see when it works or doesn't.

Corner combo pieces

These are your combo pieces once you did get the opponent to the corner. Anything goes once you are there, and considering you can't really control or know wall health, damage isn't as important as ending the combo how you want to end it (that is, keep them in the corner when you intend to, wallbreak when you intend to, and with the move you intend to).

Combo Piece	Notes
6H > 236H	Basic conversion piece. Works after c.S or air hit 5K, as well as any Bajoneto juggle. Avoid using it if you think the wall is about to break, as you don't want the sword "stealing" the wallbreak.
2H > 236S	unburstable combo setup. Works after c.S. Can be followed up by dash up c.S, dash up 5[D], or 236H. Once again, avoid using combo pieces involving Bajoneto near the end of combos, to avoid breaking the wall when you didn't mean to.
214K	Optimal damage, but fairly unstable combo piece. can be done after 2H, 6H, or even Bajoneto juggles. Timing varies and can be hard, so once again experimenting for each scenario is encouraged.
c.S > 2H > 623P	Important ender that lets you confirm wallstick. You can stagger each move here to confirm if they stick to the wall, and properly break the wall with the right ender.

Corner combo enders

These are the different combo enders available, depending on what you want to do.

Combo ender	Notes
214H	Meterless wallbreak ender. This is available anytime, unless the move that stuck the opponent to the wall was 214P~214P~214P. Do note that you cannot cancel into this move even off normals, so you'll have to time it properly.
632146H	Calvados is your optimal metered wallbreak ender. This is your most damaging way to break the wall, and gives you a hard knockdown after wallbreak. It is available after most enders, though it is fairly slow, so inputting it too slow might make it drop. It will not work after 214P~214P~214P wallstick.
236236S	Mortobato is your other metered ender, though it is less damaging than Calvados, it is faster, and builds a lot less Burst for the opponent. Thanks to its speed, it'll work after 214P~214P~214P wallstick.
Bajoneto ender	This isn't a wallbreak ender. This is however a good way to end combos without breaking the wall. It is only a soft knockdown, but it will give you enough advantage to get a meaty cS.
j.214S	Again, this isn't a wallbreak ender, but one to keep the corner. j.214S has the advantage of giving a hard knockdown, letting you set up your most powerful okizeme. It is however harder to combo into, being only possible after Bajoneto.
