  • Wall Sticks followed up with Fafnir can be followed up with 5H instead for easier execution and negligible damage loss.
  • Wall Sticks can be followed up with Tyrant Rave for extra damage and better okizeme as long as you have at least 50% Tension.
  • 5P, 5K and 2K only combo into 6S if the opponent is crouching or airborne. 2P only combos into 6S if the opponent is airborne.

Beginner Combos

Beginner.png Basic combos are simple combos with the fewest requirements and conditions possible. They:
  • Work against every, or almost every, character in the game
  • Can be performed from most positions in the play area
  • Require few adjustments, and if any are required they are simple

Close Range P Starter Ground ComboGrants very little pressure on hit.
60-82 Damage (Depending on amount of P normals used)
Very Easy

(5P or 2P) xN > 6H
This combo does not give the greatest Okizeme From Japanese "起き攻め". Attacking an opponent about to wake up after they were knocked down, usually with meaty attacks or mix-ups., but is useful due to 2P being a great way to start engagements and to Abare An attack during the opponent's pressure, intended to interrupt it. with, alongside 5K. Do not get too trigger happy with this combo, as 6H is very punishable on block.

You will need to subtract the amount of P normals based on range. Generally, if you are touching the opponents collision box, you are able to land three P normals before needing to go into 6H. Note that while 5P deals more damage than 2P, it has a slightly shorter range and whiffs on certain crouching opponents, so adjust as necessary.

This combo only grants a slightly far range f.S for okizeme due to the long recovery on 6H, so your pressure game will be weaker as a result.

You can also perform 5P or 2P > 6S > Gun Flame as a Frame Trap An offensive technique where the attacker leaves a small opening in their offense, goading the defender into performing an attack. This opening is designed such that the attacker can easily counter the defender's attack with their own. on block, but note that 6S does not combo on standing opponents, and in 2P's case, 6S will not combo on grounded opponents at all unless off a CH 2P. Be aware if your opponent is getting hit by your P normals and at least attempt to confirm into 6H on hit.

Close Range K Starter Ground ComboGreat way to mash out of pressure with 5K.
59-82 Damage (Depends on starter and whether or not the combo uses the follow-up to Bandit Revolver)
Very Easy

5K or 2K > 2D > 236K(K)
This combo is Sol's standard meterless conversion off a grounded K normal. It causes a Soft Knockdown A knockdown that puts the character into a state that may allow the character to get up off the ground earlier than a Hard Knockdown, giving the offender less options for continuing offense., which allows Sol to use f.S as a Meaty Attack Hitting an opponent to cover the moment as they lose invincibility. The most common one is performing an attack early on okizeme to gain frame advantage and bait reversals. to start his pressure game described below.

The two K starters into 2D include 5K and 2K. 5K is usually used as a way to stop the opponent's offense due to its 3 frame start-up and long range. While 2K is usually used for frame traps after a blocked f.S.

This combo also works as a jump in starter from j.S for easy air to ground conversions.

If okizeme From Japanese "起き攻め". Attacking an opponent about to wake up after they were knocked down, usually with meaty attacks or mix-ups. is more of a priority, then check out this version of the combo here.

Since the wall isn't broken during this combo, Sol does not gain Positive Bonus afterwards, but the Finish Blow ender gives him enough time to run forward for a meaty c.S.

Combo Theory

Overview


Sol's main goal is to end combos with Clean Hit H Volcanic Viper as it deals immense damage, has huge corner carry, and leads into strong okizeme. However, without some sort of special circumstance (anti-air, Counter Hit, near corner) or Tension for an Roman Cancel, this is usually impossible. The best back-up combo ender is Bandit Bringer but this move also cannot be used freely in most mid-screen routes. Thus, Sol must settle for Bandit Revolver, his most consistent ender.

Comboing Without Resources


When landing 5K or 2K on a grounded opponent, cancel into 2D then into Bandit Revolver for a basic mid-screen combo. When landing 5P, 5K or 2K on crouching or airborne opponents, you can opt to combo into 6S instead. If the opponent is airborne by the time you land Bandit Revolver, you can omit the second hit for better okizeme at the cost of damage and corner carry. c.S routes simply follow its gatlings into a special move, usually c.S > delay f.S > 5H > Bandit Revolver. This is as far as Sol goes without resources.

Using Roman Cancels


If a Roman Cancel is available, Bandit Revolver can be Red Roman Canceled for more damage. The optimal follow-up depends on Sol's spacing from the corner. If Sol's away from the corner, dash input downward and microdash into a fully charged 5[D], then dash c.S and end with a Clean Hit H Volcanic Viper for more damage, or use the forward momentum from a forward dash input and land a low Clean Hit H Volcanic Viper for better corner carry and positioning. You can also just follow the 5[D] with 5K > 6S > Bandit Bringer for an low execution follow-up that still deals high damage and has good okizeme. As you get closer to the corner, use j.D after your Red Roman Cancel to knock the opponent directly into the corner for a wall bounce and then pursue them for a full combo extension. If the opponent is cornered, you can instead aim to Red Roman Cancel H Volcanic Viper and cancel it for massive damage, though the execution on these routes are stricter and some may not work on heavyweights.

Corner Comboing


Once Sol reaches the corner, his options expand greatly. Landing Clean Hit H Volcanic Viper becomes much easier thanks to the wall bounce on j.D. The wall keeps opponents hit by Gun Flame and Fafnir from moving away from Sol, giving him better follow-ups. Lastly, Wall Stick makes using Clean Hit Tyrant Rave very easy.

Comboing With Anti-Airs


Anti-airs or moves that can launch the opponent can potentially lead into a Wall Break even if the combo started from mid-screen thanks to Sol's extreme corner carry. However, these routes are highly dependent on multiple factors which include; spacing from the corner at combo start, how high the opponent was launched/anti-aired, the opponent's weight class, the proration of the combo starter (higher scaling means higher gravity), and more. These routes require both significant amounts of practice to execute, prior knowledge of what situations require what follow-ups, and the ability to adjust the combo on the fly to prevent drops. Beginner and intermediate level players should steer clear of these routes but they are a valuable tool for high level Sol players.

Kara Cancel H Volcanic Viper


It's possible to impart additional forward movement and momentum into Sol's specials by kara canceling a 6S or a dash cancel into said special. This is especially important for H Volcanic Viper, which requires close proximity to Clean Hit.

On grounded opponents, 5P, 5K(2), 2K, or c.S can gatling into 6S, which can then can be kara canceled into H Volcanic Viper. Similarly, 5K(2) and c.S can be dash canceled, which can then be kara canceled into H Volcanic Viper. 2P and 5K(1) are Level 0 normals, and therefore lack the necessary hitstun to combo into H Volcanic Viper after a kara cancel. 5P, 5K(2), 2K are Level 1 normals, and will not combo into H Volcanic Viper if 6S or dash cancel are kara canceled on the third frame on standing opponents, although this issue isn't present on crouching opponents thanks to the additional frame of hitstun.

Please note that while 5P and 5K(2) can combo into H Volcanic Viper after a kara cancel on standing opponents, H Volcanic Viper will not Clean Hit, even at point blank. Getting a Clean Hit in this situation requires either dash momentum or a crouching opponent for reduced blowback and the additional frame of hitstun for a potential third frame kara cancel. 2K or c.S do not have this problem at close range, although dash momentum or a crouching opponent will be required for 2K at further viable ranges.

On airborne opponents, hitstun restrictions do not apply, but as airborne opponents introduce height variables as well as some distance variables that may not apply on the ground, whether or not you will be able to successfully Clean Hit will depend entirely on positioning.

Core Combos

Intermediate.png Core combos balance potency with consistency. They:
  • Work against most characters of a selected weight or hurt box type
  • May require moderate adjustments to account for variables such as screen position, hit count, resources, and opposing character
  • Are expected to be consistently performable by most intermediate and advanced players who main the character

Close Range BnB A staple combo that is simple yet effective. Corner ComboUtilize the power of the Clean Hit.
251 Damage
Medium

c.S > 5H, 665K > jc, j.S > j.H > j.D, CL 623H, WS 5H
This combo may seem finicky, but when mastered can become a very consistent tool for Sol players to use. This combo has a tricky ender due to the mechanic known as a Clean Hit. A Clean Hit H Volcanic Viper grants the second hit increased damage, and secures a Hard Knockdown A knockdown that forces the character into a prolonged knockdown state. After a hard knockdown, teching is disabled briefly, allowing the player who is on the offensive more time to set up a meaty, a mix-up, etc. for Sol to use if he would like to end this combo early. This combo can best be used after the opponent attempts to backdash your corner c.S pressure.

In order to perform a Clean Hit, Sol must land the first hit as deep as possible. Alignment is important, so you will have to take note of how the opponent falls in order to land one. Depending on the height of the opponent after Clean Hit H Volcanic Viper, Sol might have to opt for j.D instead of 5H due to the opponent being too high on the wall.

After the first 5H, dash in close for 5K to ensure that both hits of j.H connect.

Sol can end this combo early by doing j.S > delay j.D into H Volcanic Viper to not break the wall for a hard knockdown. He can then follow up with an Off the Ground To hit the opponent while they are on the ground and launch or re-stand them taking them "Off the Ground". c.S and then dash cancel for okizeme, as this puts Sol the closest to his opponent as possible to start his intimidating pressure sequences.

Any Starter Metered Midscreen ComboGain a hard knockdown off of any starter.
Damage depends on starter
Easy

Starter > 66RRC, 66c.S > (delay) CL 623H, (OTG 6H)
This combo is very valuable due to it giving a hard knockdown for okizeme while also being easily hit confirmable. It also works off of any move that has the ability to pop up the opponent after a Red Roman Cancel. The knockdown from this combo gives Sol the best opportunity for pressure due to how long the opponent stays knocked down for, if you are not sure for what combo to go for after a Red Roman Cancel, use this one as a default.

The amount of delay on the Clean Hit H Volcanic Viper will depend on the starter and combo duration leading up to the Red Roman Cancel. If a delay is necessary, you can also jump cancel into a low Aerial H Volcanic Viper as opposed to waiting.

If the opponent is almost dead, then OTG The act of hitting the opponent when they are knocked down. Short for "off the ground" or "on the ground." 6H can deal significant damage at the cost of okizeme. Good for closing out rounds.

Any Starter Metered Near-Corner ComboGet a more optimal metered combo for a Wall Break.
Damage depends on starter
Medium

Starter > 66RRC, c.S > jc, (j.S) > j.H > j.D, (delay 2K) > CL 623H, WS 5H
This combo does a lot of damage and is confirmable off any random hit, barring 6H. Because of this, 5D becomes a legitimate threat even while uncharged, as the Red Roman Cancel can be used to launch the opponent on hit.

Some additional combo parts will need to be added if the starter before the Roman Cancel was only a single move for the wall to break. In some cases you may also have to high jump cancel the c.S for the j.D after the j.S to not whiff. If you are forced to include j.S and 2K in the combo and the wall still does not break, try to wait as long as possible after the Roman Cancel and then do the c.S portion of the combo. If the wall still does not break, do an OTG c.S and dash cancel it to be right up in the opponent's face after the Clean Hit H Volcanic Viper.

This combo is commonly used as a punish for DP Dragon Punch A move that has invulnerability during its startup, long recovery, and a rising motion.s due to its unprorated starter that leads into easy high damage on Counter Hit from any position on screen. This combo grants the same okizeme as this combo linked above.

If the opponent is almost dead, then OTG The act of hitting the opponent when they are knocked down. Short for "off the ground" or "on the ground." 6H can deal significant damage at the cost of okizeme. Good for closing out rounds.

Counter Hit 5H Midscreen ComboMake opponents afraid to mash.
186 Damage
Medium

CH 5H > 236K, c.S > 6S/dc~CL 623H, (OTG 6H)
Be sure to read the section on Kara Cancel H Volcanic Viper in order to understand how to perform the kara cancel that is in this combo.

This combo synergizes well with f.S pressure as if you delay the 5H gatling afterwards on block, it can catch mashers. It then leads into this combo for a massive reward. This combo grants the same okizeme as this combo linked above. If the opponent respects the delayed 5H on block, simply cancel into Gun Flame for safety.

If the opponent is almost dead, then OTG The act of hitting the opponent when they are knocked down. Short for "off the ground" or "on the ground." 6H can deal significant damage at the cost of okizeme. Good for closing out rounds.
