==Beginner 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. | |||
===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. A full list of optimal routes can be found below this list once your understanding of Giovanna's combo theory and execution improves. | |||
Note: Most combos listed here that end in {{clr|2|214K}} can optionally be instead ended in {{clr|4|632146H}}, granting extra corner carry and much higher damage at the cost of oki. | |||

Does not work at max range, so whilst dash momentum and spacing can allow more {{clr|1|5P}}s to be done for higher damage, it is not recommended to do so for beginners. {{clr|1|2P}} will deal marginally less damage, but can be pressed whilst holding down-back. Can be ended with {{clr|4|632146H}} for 50 Tension to increase the damage to 135 (137) [146] | |||

Walk or delay before jumping so that you have the right height to land the super, so if you're having trouble you can omit or freestyle the j.X attacks. A very expensive combo, but you can move under your opponent during the RRC to swap sides for the Wall Break. Break-less is at least 163 damage, so it's best to use if you know you can break. | ||
|- | |||

Has comparable damage to the combo above, works from about round start & anywhere closer to the corner, and only costs 50 tension but is harder to execute as the trade off. If done late the PRC will leave you too high to connect {{clr|3|c.S}}, replace with {{clr|2|5K}} to continue the combo at the cost of ~7 damage across all tension levels.

Another combo that you can land off of {{clr|4|6H}}, assuming you have ~40 tension. Works from the same distance as the above combo and does a bit more damage. Some notes are that doing {{clr|2|236K}} too quickly or with the opponent too high off the ground can cause them to bounce off the wall and over your head, so delay parts of the sequence after 66PRC as needed. Additionally, doing this combo in the corner or if the opponent hits the wall before {{clr|2|236K}}, {{clr|3|c.S}} will cause the wallsplat instead of {{clr|2|214K}}, in which case just go straight to {{clr|5|5[D]}}.

Beginner Combo List
- All damage values are damage dealt to Ky.
- 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.
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. A full list of optimal routes can be found below this list once your understanding of Giovanna's combo theory and execution improves.
Note: Most combos listed here that end in 214K can optionally be instead ended in 632146H, granting extra corner carry and much higher damage at the cost of oki.
Combo | Position | Damage | Tension Gain | Works on: | Difficulty | Video | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
5P > 6P | Anywhere | 46 (48) [50] | ~7 | Everyone | [1] Very Easy | - | 5P or 2P confirm. Does not work at max range, so whilst dash momentum and spacing can allow more 5Ps to be done for higher damage, it is not recommended to do so for beginners. 2P will deal marginally less damage, but can be pressed whilst holding down-back. Can be ended with 632146H for 50 Tension to increase the damage to 135 (137) [146] |
5P > 6P > 214K | Midscreen/Corner | 70 (73) [76] | ~14 | Everyone | [1] Very Easy | - | Whilst possible midscreen, 214K is not guaranteed off of 6P outside of the corner. |
AA 6P > 214K | Anywhere | 67 (69) [73] | ~11 | Everyone | [1] Very Easy | - | 6P Anti-air combo |
5K > 214K | Anywhere | 65 (67) [71] | ~11 | Everyone | [1] Very Easy | - | 5K/2K combo. 2K will deal marginally less damage. |
c.S > delay f.S / 2S > 5H > 214K | Anywhere | 131/130 (136/135) [142/140] | ~22 | Everyone | [2] Easy | - | You must delay f.S/2S otherwise Giovanna will get an airborne hit, causing the 5H to launch the opponent away and prevent the 214K from connecting. |
c.S > 2H > 214K, 5K > 214K | Anywhere | 142 (147) [154] | ~29 | Everyone | [2] Easy | - | Combo only for guaranteed punishes e.g. blocked burst. Optionally, Giovanna can dash up and OTG c.S to end the combo. Jump cancelling the c.S and instantly airdashing with j.H (Which would be annotated as jc iad j.H) will grant a safejump, giving Giovanna guaranteed plus frames. |
c.S > 2H > 236K, c.S > 5H > 214K WS 5[D] | Corner | 204 (211) [220] | ~37 | Eeveryone | [2] Easy | - | Corner punish combo. Replace 5[D] with 632146H if you want more damage and to have oki after the wallbreak. |
f.S / 2S > 5H > 214K | Anywhere | 97 (99) [105/104] | ~16 | Everyone | [1] Very Easy | - | |
5H > 214K | Anywhere | 84 (88) [91] | ~13 | Everyone | [1] Very Easy | - | |
CH 5H, 5H > 214K | Anywhere | 121 (127) [131] | ~21 | Everyone | [2] Easy | - | Counterhit confirm from 5H. Harder, but more optimal combos can be found below. |
5[D jc j.H > j.S jc j.H > j.S > j.H > j.S > j.S | Anywhere | 195 (199) [205] | ~29 | Everyone | [2] Easy | - | Charged Dust combo. |
Roman Cancels
These routes are designed to be similarly simple for players a little more familiar with Giovanna who want to start using Tension in combos for Roman Cancels. As before, more optimal but difficult uses of Tension are provided below.
Combo | Position | Damage | Tension Gain | Works on: | Difficulty | Video | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
2K/5K > 214K > 66RRC, dash, 66c.S > 2H > 236K | Anywhere | 92/113 (94/115) [98/121] | -38 | Everyone | [2] Easy | - | Converting 2K/5K into more damage and corner carry. From roundstart, has enough corner carry to get to the corner and break the wall. |
5D > 66RRC, c.S jc j.H > j.D land 5H > 214K WS 5[D] | Corner | 145 (147) [151] | -43 | Everyone | [3] Medium | - | Using RRC to convert a non-charged 5D into a full combo with wallbreak |
4/6D > 66RRC, delay 5[D], delay 5K > 214K | Anywhere | 110 (114) [120] | -39 | Everyone | [3] Medium | - | Using RRC to convert a throw into a full combo. Can OTG with c.S |
Combo List
- All damage values are damage dealt to Ky.
- 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.
- Note: Almost any combo that has 5K > 6HHH can convert into 632146H, assuming you have 50 tension. 6H > 632146H will be more damage and an easier link while 6HH > 632146H will be a harder link with slightly less damage, but greater carry

If you're too close to the corner after 236K, walk back more. If you get f.S after 236K instead of c.S, walk back less. | |

j.K > 214S ▷ 214K | Anywhere but Corner | 79 (82) [88] | ~22 | [2] Easy | Youtube | Flashy crossup combo, j.K has to hit behind them so that the first hit of 214S instantly connects. | ||
5P/2P/5K/2K > 623S 66PRC (> walk forward) > c.S > 5K > 6HHH | Anywhere | 141 (143) [150] | -50% | [4] Hard | Streamable | Requires minimum of 41 tension, damage taken from starting the combo with 5K. All other starters reduce the damage by a fair amount(20-25 on Ky). c.S > 5K is very difficult if you don't get the correct PRC timing, so if you think you can't get c.S to reach replace it with a second 5K. This version works at pretty much any range that 5K would be able to hit normally and doesn't lose you much damage. You can also replace the end with 6H > 214K for less damage but a better knockdown.

If it looks like Giovanna is off the ground at all when you PRC you will not be able to connect a full charge dust and 5D will end the combo, so do the above combo instead. 2K > 6H > 214K is a more difficult ender for slightly less damage and a closer knockdown.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
c.S > f.S(3)/2S/5H > 214K | Anywhere | 103 (107) [112] | ~15 | [1] Very Easy | Allows for a c.S OTG after. 5H version is more damage, but also tighter OTG. | ||
c.S > dl.f.S(3) > 5H > 214K | Anywhere | 131 (136) [142] | ~22 | Everyone | [1] Very Easy | Cancel too soon and you hit them still floating from c.S and the combo doesn't work. Worse oki than the above combo, but still good enough to dash up and meaty. c.S | |
c.S > 2H > 214K > 5K > 214K/5D | Anywhere | 142 (147) [154] | ~ 30 | [2] Easy | |||
c.S > 2H > 214K > 5K > 6HHH | Anywhere | 155 (162) [171] | ~33 | [3] Medium | Youtube | BnB off of c.S. Works anywhere if you delay the two last Hs. Will wallbreak if started close enough to the corner. Not the BnB for corner. | |
c.S > 2H > 214K > 5K > 6HH > 214K | Anywhere | 157 (163) [172] | ~35 | [4] Hard | Max damage alternative to the above. Need to heavily delay both hits of 6HH. | ||

Can also do c.S > 2H > 6HHH for better wall carry and worst Oki or c.S > 2H > 236K for easier execution and more knockback to wallsplat. | ||
c.S > 2H > 236K > c.S > 5H > 214K > 5D | Corner | 204 (211) [220] | ~37 | [3] Medium | Meterless BnB off of c.S in the corner. Can finish with 632146H for better oki and damage. | ||
c.S > (2S(2)) > 5H > 632146HH | Anywhere | (205) [212] | [3] Medium | You need to land both hits of 2S for it to work, otherwise just skip it for 5 less damage. | |||
66.f.S(3)/2S(2) > 5H > 214K | Anywhere | 97 (99) [104] | ~20 | [1] Very Easy | Basic combo off f.S/2S. 5H can cancel the second hit of 2S. Avoid this in order to get maximum damage. | ||
c.S > 2S > (5H or 2H) > 214K > 88RRC > j.D > AD > j.D > 5H > 214K WS | Midscreen | 200 | [3] Medium | Midscreen, the second j.D will wallbounce them for the rest of the combo to hit. | |||

c.S > 2H > 214K > 66.PRC walk forward > c.S > 5K > 5K > 214K WS > dash.5D | Back to the wall | 204 | [3] Medium | Needs some timing down for it, but a useful combo for when your back is to the wall. | |||
CH c.S > 5[D] > microwalk > c.S > 214K > 5K > 6HHH | Anywhere | 184 (190) [198] | ~45 | [4] Hard | Counter hit c.S combo. | ||
cS > 2H > 214K > 2H > 214K | Anywhere | 142 (148) [156] | ~30 | [3] Medium | There is a timing gap for the 2nd 2H in order to connect. In the corner, it's more lenient. Causes wall break setup in the corner. | ||

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
6HH > j.236236H | Anywhere | (161) [170] | ~10 | [1] Very Easy | Easy super buffer from this move. You can add this to any combo ending with 6H. If done near half screen can wall break for (196) [203] damage. | |
6HH, RRC > c.S > 2H > 236K | Anywhere | (126) [133] | ~12 | [2] Easy | ||
6HH ▷ 623S, RRC > Delay 5[D] > Delay c.S WS > 6HHH WB | Corner | (196) [202] | ~15 | [3] Medium | Guaranteed Wall Break in the corner, you'll have to watch for them falling down for the delays. It's rather hard to pull off anywhere else without being close and delaying, and you'll likely need to rework the end 6Hs. | |
5H > 214K, 66.RRC > dash > 66.c.S > 2H > 236K, c.S > 5H WS, 5[D] | Midscreen to Corner | (188) [164] | ~15-16 | Everyone | [1] Very Easy | Poke confirm. Can punish some moves intended to be safe when spaced e.g. Millia 214P |
5H > 214K, RRC > dash > (walk back) > c.S > 2H > 236K, 66.5K, c.S > 5H > 214K WS, 5[D] | Back to corner | (192) [198] | ~17 | Everyone | [2] Easy | Works when you're in the corner and they're at the furthest range of 5H. |
5H > 632146H | Anywhere | (192) [202] | ~6 | Everyone | [1] Very Easy | Better damage than any RRC combo, but worse oki. On wallbreak, does (226) [238] and grants oki. |
5H > 214K, 66.RRC > dash > 66.c.S, c.S > 2H > 214K | Anywhere | (146) [150] | ~15-16 | Everyone | [2] Easy | Less damage than 5H > 63214H but much better oki. |
CH 5H > 236K > f.S > 5H > 214K | Anywhere | 154 (158) [164] | Everyone | [4] Very Hard | Very harsh window on the 236 > fS connect. Only do this if you're certain you can hit it, else you'll be missing out on the damage opportunity CH 5H gave you (this move is a wonderful roundstart that'll even beat Ram's fS). | |
CH 5H > 236K > 5K > 214K | Anywhere | 137 | Everyone | [1] Very Easy | The easy version. You can mash 5K and it'll work-- and 214K will eject them towards the wall, so you're still getting carry out of this. | |
6HHH RRC ▷ j.D > j.H > j.236236H (Wall Break) | Corner | (202) [207] | -100 | Everyone | [3] Medium | Requires at least 86 Tension, does more damage if starting at 100. Walk or delay before jumping so that you have the right height to land the super, so if you're having trouble you can omit or freestyle the j.X attacks. A very expensive combo, but you can move under your opponent during the RRC to swap sides for the Wall Break. Break-less is at least 163 damage, so it's best to use if you know you can break. |
6HH > 623S 66PRC > c.S > 6HHH WS > 5D Wallbreak | Midscreen to Corner | 201 (202) [210] | -50 | [4] Hard | Requires ~35 Tension. Has comparable damage to the combo above, works from about round start & anywhere closer to the corner, and only costs 50 tension but is harder to execute as the trade off. If done late the PRC will leave you too high to connect c.S, replace with 5K to continue the combo at the cost of ~7 damage across all tension levels. Combo done normally https://streamable.com/kgg58h Substituting 5K for c.S https://streamable.com/xgc249. | |
6H > 623S 66PRC > c.S > 2H > 236K > c.S > 214K WS > 5[D] Wallbreak | Midscreen to Corner | 210 (212) [218] | -50 | [4] Hard |
Another combo that you can land off of 6H, assuming you have ~40 tension. Works from the same distance as the above combo and does a bit more damage. Some notes are that doing 236K too quickly or with the opponent too high off the ground can cause them to bounce off the wall and over your head, so delay parts of the sequence after 66PRC as needed. Additionally, doing this combo in the corner or if the opponent hits the wall before 236K, c.S will cause the wallsplat instead of 214K, in which case just go straight to 5[D].
