AA 2H > 22H-H > 2H > [4]6H	5380	30%	Anyone	[3] Medium	Requires a deeper AA to get the 22H-H but otherwise is fairly simple and consistent.

c.XXX > 214H, 2H > 22L-66(1)-H, f.L	3980, 4280, 4980	33%, 37%, 38%	Anyone	[3] Medium	Values are for L,M,H autocombos. Sets up meaty stance oki.
c.XXX > 214H, 2H > 22H-H, c.M > 632146M	4440, 4740, 5440	38%, 42%, 43%	Anyone	[2] Easy	Values are for L,M,H autocombos.
2M/2U > 22H(1)-H, f.L > 6M+H > 214H	4304, 4596	19%	Universal in corner	[3] Medium	Requires 50% meter. Does not work on LN, FT, MT, LW, VS, NM, SO, DJ, YU, UN, EU, SX, or VI midscreen.
c.5M > c.5M > 214H > 2H > 22L-66-H > f.5L/2M	4910	34%	Anyone*	[5] Very Hard	Shockingly optimal usage of CDs comes at the cost of being very tight to do. Starter is crouching only and the 2M ender is not universal.
2M/2U > 22H(1)-H, c.M > 214H, 2H > [4]6L	5150/ 5450	36%	Anyone	[2] Easy	Substitute c.M with f.L at longer ranges to reach.
c.5H > 214H > 2H > 22H-H > c.5M > 632146M	6260	38%	Anyone	[3] Medium	Meterless corner cash out bnb.
c.5H > 214H > 2H > [4]6H	4980	32%	Anyone	[2] Easy	Gives Vas his best, easiest to earn oki while saving his more important CDs.
214H(2nd hit) > 2U > 22H-H > f.5L > 6M+H > 632146M	4827	23%	Anyone	[4] Hard	Use this combo if you recognize your 2H will wiff in the corner after a fireball catches them. Requires 50 meter.
CH [4]6M > 2H > 22H-H > c.5M > 214H > 2H > [4]6M	7050	43%	Anyone	[4] Hard	Very spacing dependent starter.
CH [4]6M > c.5H > 214H > 22H-H > c.5M > 632146M	7230	44%	Anyone	[5] Very Hard	Even more strict, more rewarding combo from the above combo posted. If you think you are going to get a f.5M over a c.5M just drop it from the route and 632146M will still work.
CH [4]6M > c.5H > 214H > 2H > 22H-H > 2H > [4]6M	7500	43%	Anyone	[5] Very Hard	Technically optimal but good luck.
22H-L > f.5L/f.5M > 214H > 2H > [4]6H	5130/5330	36%	Anyone	[2] Easy	Catches people jumping out of the corner and punishes them with this.
22H-L > f.5H > 6M+H 214H > 2H > [4]6H	5620	18%	Anyone	[3] Medium	Rush will wiff at max range.
22X-[H] > GCc.5H > 214H >2H > 22H-H > 632146M	5980	38%	Anyone	[3] Medium	Guard Crush Combo. When vas fully charges his Crushing blow in any stance he is +16, and thus can hit the opponent with anything he wants. The combo itself is easy, getting them to block this is not. Due to the nature of pushback some routes might change slightly based on where in the corner he lands the GC.
CH 22X-H > c.5M > 22H(1)H > 214H > 2H > [4]6M	6590	43%	Anyone	[3] Medium	Good counterhit combo for catching people trying to roll through 22X in the corner.
CH 22X-H > 214H > 2H > 22H-H > c.5M > 632146M	6760	41%	Anyone	[3] Medium	Optimal meterless punish of someone rolling out of 22X in the corner.
22H-L > f.5H > 236236H	4880	-100%	Anyone	[2] Easy	Simple distant AA confirm.
5U, 2M > 214H, 2H > 236236U, 22H(1) > 632146M	6380	-100%	Anyone	[4] Hard	Post-SSBA extension.

2H > [4]6H > c.5M > 214H > 2H > 22H-H > 632146M	6840	47%	Anyone	[4] Hard	Gives up damage for stability. Can use a 2L if c.5M will wiff for less damage but more consistency.
2H > [4]6H > 214H > 2H > 22H-H > c.5M > 632146M	7030	47%	Anyone	[5] Very Hard	The trick to continuing after [4]6H is to get the 1st hit of the tackle to connect as late as possible.
2H > 22H-H > 214H > 2H > [4]6H > c.5M > 632146M	7030	47%	Anyone	[5] Very Hard	Can use a 2L if c.5M will wiff for less damage but more consistency.
22H-L > f.5H > 214H > f.5H > 236236H	5910	-100%	Anyone	[3] Medium	Good at catching people jumping out of the corner. Simple combo but incredibly spacing dependent.
CH 2H > 22L-66-H > 2H > 22H-H > 214H > 2H > [4]6M	7370	44%	Anyone	[4] Hard	Specific heights are required for the 214H to connect properly. The 1st 2H can be replaced with a c.5H for more damage but you lose a lot of hang time on your combo.
CH 5U > c.5M > 214H > 2H > [4]6H > c.5M > 632146M	5730	43%	Anyone	[4] Hard	5U is an extremely degenerate AA when you have a stock of Soul Forge. Use this to catch people trying to jump over you/crossing you up.
CH 5U > c.5H > 214H > 2H > [4]6H > c.5M > 632146M	6430	44%	Anyone	[5] Very Hard	Optimal punish but very tight spacing needed.
CH 22M-H > 2H > 22H-H > 214H > 2H > [4]6M	7100	40%	Anyone	[4] Hard	Any 22X-H will work but the 1st one must not be 22H.

Combo Theory

Ending a combo with 214M (or 214H) gives you a large amount of time to act before your opponent gets up, letting you easily get your 5U off, or run up to pressure them.
Ending a combo with [4]6L Gives you less frame advantage, but leaves you closer to the opponent making it easier to maintain momentum.
Ending a combo with 22H~H provides a hard knockdown and sets up a safejump by immediately doing 2L(whiff) jump forward.
Ending a combo with airhit f.L allows you to get a meaty with [4]6M that is plus. You can also cancel into 236236H but it will not get the cinematic damage.
c.M c.M is technically a 1 frame link on crouching opponents. It is difficult, but possible.
Any f.L or f.M will combo into 22H~H, allowing you to get a knockdown off of far pokes. It will also work off of f.H, but not at all ranges.
2L links into c.L, allowing you to go into c.LXX and follow those respective combo routes.
All of Vaseraga's close and crouching normals can combo into 214H leading to a knockdown midscreen or respectable damage in the corner.
