2M > 5M(1) > jc.MLL2H > delay SD > j.MLL2H > jc.LLL	4185	1.05	All	Very Easy	Switches sides. Reallyyy delay the SD.
2H(2) > SD > j.L > delay j.L2H > jc.LLL	3200	0.81	Small, Medium	Medium	2H side switch version.
... j.LL > j.236M			All	Very Easy	Alternate ender, very close to opponent on sliding knockdown. (Less damage, harder assist extensions but better oki)
... j.LLS > j.236M			All	Very Easy	End with this when near the corner.
2M > 5M(1) > 5H > SD > delay j.ML2H > jc.LLL > j.214L	4185	0.98	All	Easy	Corner carry combo. Delay 5M from 5LL starter.
SD > j.LL2H > jc.LLL	2400	0.56	All	Very Easy	SD conversion. j.2H can link into jc.L even on Smash hit.

Metered

Combo	Damage	Meter Gain	Works on:	Difficulty	Notes
2M > 5M(1) > 5H > 236H (whiff), 5LL > 2M > delay 5M(1) > 6S(1) > SD > j.ML2H > jc.LLL > j.214L	4742	0.34	All	Easy	Much better corner carry than the simple 5H combo, stays meter positive even with raw 5H.
2M > 5M(1) > 5H > 236H (whiff), 5LL > 2M > 5M(1) > sjc.LML2H > delay jc.LLL > j.214L	4852	0.05	All	Easy	Alternate route with more damage but less meter. The longer you delay the double jump, the more time you'll have for meter gain penalty to go away and so the more meter you'll gain.
214M > 5S(4) > Vanish ...	2020+	-0.81	All	Easy	Vanish extension from 214M or 236M.
... > Vanish ▷ IAD j.ML ▷ 5LL > 2M > delay 5M(1) > 6S(1) > SD > j.LL2H > jc.LLL > j.214L	2605 from 5S(4)		All	Easy	Post Vanish route.

Corner Combos

Meterless

Combo	Damage	Meter Gain	Works on:	Difficulty	Notes
2M > 5M(1) > 5H > 5S(4) > 2S > SD > j.ML2H > jc.LLL > j.214L	4562	1.1	All	Very Easy	Simple corner combo. Works from midscreen as well.
[DR] > j.LML2H > jc.LLS(4) > j.236M	3022	1.5+	All	Very Easy	Simple DR combo.
2M > 2S > 6S(4) > delay 5H > 5S(4) > 2H(2) > SD > j.4LL > j.M2H > jc.LLL > j.214L	5062 from 5M(1)	1.54	All	Easy	2S > 6S(4) always work if 2S hits close to the ground and as close to the corner as possible.
2M > 5M(1) > 5H > delay 2S > 6S(4) > delay 5S(4) > 2H(2) > SD > j.LL2H > jc.LLL > j.214L	5097	1.5	All	Medium	"Optimal" string but very inconsistent. Works regardless of how many hits you land with 6S and 5S, but 5H pushes Goku back making 6S most likely only hit 3 times, and the SD angle also varies so you can't go for j.4LL > j.M2H. Extra note: The delay between 5H and 2S to get 6S(4) is an 1f window on most characters.
214M, dash 2M > 2S > 6S(4) > delay 5H > 5S(4) > 2H(2) > SD > j.LL2H > jc.LLL > j.214L	3260	1.53	All	Easy	Command grab conversion #1.
214M, dash 5LL > 2M > 2S > 6S(4) > delay 5H > 2H(2) > SD > j.LL2H > jc.LLL > j.214L	3185	1.64	All	Easy	Command grab conversion #2.
5LL > 236L, dash 5LL > 2M > 2S > 6S(4) > delay 5H > 2H(2) > SD > j.M2H > jc.LLL > j.214L	4062	~1.8	All	Medium	Back-to-corner combo #1. From 2L or j.H starter, skip 5H. Gets harder the further away from the corner you are. 236L, dash 5L link only works if the dash is about half screen in length.
5LL > 6S(2) > 236M, dash 5LL > 2M > 5H > 2S > 2H(2) > SD > j.LL2H > jc.LLL > j.214L	3435	~1.8	All	Easy	Back-to-corner combo #2. From 2L or j.H starter, do SD > j.M2H Works further out compared to the last combo since 236M gives you more time to dash back in.
5LL > 6S(1) > 236M, dash 2M > 2S > 6S(4) > delay 5H > 2H(2) > SD > j.LL2H > jc.LLL > j.214L	3525	~1.73	All	Easy	Back-to-corner combo #3. From 2L or j.H starter, do 2H(1) > SD. Easiest variation since 6S(1) pulls the opponent closer.

Metered

Combo	Damage	Meter Gain	Works on:	Difficulty	Notes
214H, j.214M, dash 2M > 5H > 2S > 2H(2) > SD > j.LL2H > jc.LLL > j.214L	3395	-0.37	All	Easy	Grounded 214H confirm.
2M > 5M(1) > 214H > airdash j.M ▷ 5LL > 2M > delay 5M(1) > 5H > delay 6S(3) > 2S > SD > j.LL2H > jc.LLL > j.214L	5646	-0.22	All	Medium	High damage 214H combo.

Assist Extensions

Combo	Position	Works on:	Difficulty	Notes
214M/236M , Assist > 5S(2) > SD	Midscreen	All		Midscreen meterless 214M or 236M confirm using full screen assist like beams. Use 5S(1) depending on the assist (C assist and some tracking assist allow Goku to dash up and hit 5L so experiment with your team)
... djc > j.LLL > j.214L > Assist ...	Anywhere	All		j.214L makes assist extensions a breeze.
... Assist > 5L > 5LL > 2M > 236L ...	Anywhere	All		Post smash j.H assist extension for more damage (Can add 5H > 5S after 2M if in the corner)
... Assist > DR > 22S > Super	Corner	All		22S makes for excellent combo filler when going into supers. Both of UI's supers track vertically and it deals high damage.
