Combo Notation Guide

Click "Expand" for information about combo notation in SF6:

SF6 Combo Notation Guide
Notation	Meaning
>	Cancel the previous move to the following move. e.g. Normal into Special (2MK > 236P) or Special into Super (623P > 236236K)
~	Chain/Cancel the previous move into a followup. e.g. Luke's target combo (LP~MP~HP) or Rising Uppercut into Slam Dunk (623PP~PP)
,	Link the previous move to the following move. e.g. 5MP, 2MP (requires manual timing)
An example with Ken that uses all three "connecting" symbols: 2LP, 5MP~HP > 623P > 236236P 2LP links into 5MP; 5MP chains into HP Target Combo; HP cancels into Shoryuken which cancels into Lv.3 Super
j.X	Jumping action; for Neutral Jump, use 8j.X e.g. Kimberly j.2MP (Elbow Drop) or Ryu j.214K (Aerial Tatsumaki Senpukyaku)
P or K	Any Punch or Any Kick (when button strength does not matter) PP or KK represents any two punches/kicks.
X/Y	Do either X move or Y move. e.g. end a combo with 214K/623P
[X]	Hold the button input e.g. Luke 214[LP] = charged LP Flash Knuckle
dl.X	Briefly delay the action e.g. Ken 236HK~dl.6LK (Jinrai Loop starter)
AA	Anti-air; hit the opponent while they're mid-air. May cause a different juggle state compared to a grounded opponent.
Y xN {Y} xN	Repeat 'Y' input 'N' number of times. A sequence of multiple inputs will be bundled into "{}". e.g. 5LP x3 (5LP, 5LP, 5LP) or {2HP > Drive Rush} x3
Y > DR	Button Y cancelled into Drive Rush (3-bar version) e.g. 5HP > DR
DR~Y	Drive Rush into Button Y (cancel the dash frames early into a followup attack) This can be done from the 1-bar or 3-bar versions of Drive Rush e.g. 236HP Launch, DR~5LP
An example for Ryu using both Drive Rush notations: 2MK > DR~5HP (cancel 2MK into Drive Rush, then immediately use 5HP during dash animation)

Links and Starters

Normal Hit

Somersault Kick confirm"Too easy."

Very Easy, Easy

5MP, 2MP(~2MP) > 28HK

Simple confirm after Guile's go-to pressure normal, 5MP. At close range, 2MP chains into the Double Shot target combo (2MP~2MP). Double Shot provides extra charge time but places the opponent in a juggle state, limiting follow-ups such as clean hit Super Art 3.

By immediately charging after 5MP and canceling into Somersault Kick as late as possible, Double Shot can be omitted. Keeping the opponent grounded is key to Guile's highest damage routes, so it's worth practicing.

Low Light Confirm

Very Easy

2LK~2LP

Basic pressure string that doubles as a confirm. The string alone does not build enough charge for a special cancel so Guile must either have some charge before the string or tack on a (difficult) 5LK link.

Punishes

Simple 4F punishes"Easy operation."

Very Easy

2LP, 2MP(~2MP) > 28HK
2LP, 5MP, 2MP > 28HK
2LP, 2MP, 28HK > SU3

Go-to choice for conserving Drive Gauge. At close range, Guile can add 5MP if not confirming into SU3. 2MP can link into Double Shot (2MP~2MP) for more charge, but a clean hit SU3 won't be possible.
