==Combo List==
*All damage values are damage dealt to Ky.
<!--Please test or re-test combo damage against Ky, as he has a 1.00 defense mod while Sol's is 0.98.-->
* Damage values listed for combos with interchangeable combo parts assume the highest damage variation unless otherwise stated.
* Damage is listed as follows: Dmg (50%T Dmg) [100%T Dmg] based on Giovanna's Tension at the start of the combo.
* See the [[GGST/Giovanna/Combos#Combo_Theory|Combo Theory]] section for information regarding 5K juggle enders and OTG/oki information.

===Beginner Combos===
These routes are basic bread and butter combos for players looking to get started with Giovanna. They prioritize simplicity over damage, tension gain, or corner carry so feel free to modify them.

Once again, make sure you land all j.D hits. You can charge up your 5 [D] for an extra "OMPH!" Can also work vs heavy weights, but you must space out your initial {{clr|D|j.D}} by letting your {{clr|H|j.H}} bring the opponent higher in the air.

==Combo Theory==

==={{clr|K|5K}} Juggle Enders===
* Any {{clr|K|214K}} as a combo ender can be substituted with {{clr|H|632146H}} for the increased damage. Midscreen you will get worse oki, but if this breaks the wall you will get the extra damage and wallbreak oki.

|-
| | ..., 66 {{clr|K|5K}} > {{clr|K|214K}}, OTG || Anywhere || Everyone || [1] {{clr|1|Very Easy}} || - || Standard 5K juggle ender. Gives Giovanna a hard knockdown at the end of her extended juggles to do an OTG or start her offense with a conventional meaty.
|-
| | ..., 66 {{clr|K|5K}} > {{clr|H|6HHH}} || Anywhere || Everyone || [3] {{clr|3|Medium}} || [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMa-GreFPnc Youtube] || Alternate 5K juggle ender. Gives Giovanna increased damage and corner carry at the cost of worse oki. Works anywhere if you delay the {{clr|H|6H}} followups.
|-
| | ..., 66 {{clr|K|5K}} > {{clr|H|6H}}({{clr|H|H}}),{{clr|K|214K}} || Anywhere || - || [4] {{clr|4|Hard}} || - || Standard 5K juggle ender with {{clr|H|6H}} extension. Gives Giovanna the damage benefits of the previous enders at the cost of being much tougher to execute. If substituting {{clr|K|214K}} with super, {{clr|H|6H}} > {{clr|H|632146H}} will be more damage and an easier link while {{clr|H|6HH}} > {{clr|H|632146H}} will be a harder link with slightly less damage, but greater carry. 
|-
|}

===OTG and Okizeme===
Any combo ending in "OTG" means you are in range to hit the opponent off the ground with a button. From this she can dash up into an OTG {{clr|K|5K}} or {{clr|S|c.S}} for a safe jump, OTG them with a different button, or wait for the opponents wakeup to hit them meaty. See Giovanna's [https://www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=GGST/Giovanna/Strategy#Okizeme Strategy Page] for more information

Safe Jumps:
* 66 {{clr|S|c.S}} OTG > IAD {{clr|H|j.H}}: Standard safe jump. Easier to time but loses to 7f reversals
* 66 {{clr|K|5K}} OTG > IAD {{clr|H|j.H}}: {{clr|K|5K}} safe jump. Harder to connect due to {{clr|K|5K}}'s limited vertical range, but beats 7f Reversals.

===Common RC Routes===
* To extend your confirms into extra damage/corner carry, you may want to spend 50% meter and use the routes below. Note that these routes assume minimum scaling/wall damage, so the opponent may wallsplat before the points mentioned. 
* For RC confirms from high juggles such as {{clr|S|623S}} or {{clr|S|c.S}} > {{clr|H|2H}} > {{clr|K|214K}}, PRC can be used instead of RRC to avoid the combo scaling from the RRC hit.
