Kunimitsu combos

Bread n' butter

Bread n' butter combos are juggles that:

Work on as many different launchers as possible
Work on all body sizes

Launchers that require unique combos go straight to § Staples.

Regular launch (e.g. df+2): f+4,F~4 BT.1,3,F~1,2,1 S! f+3~4,3

Instant screw (e.g. f,n,d,df+2): f+3~4 BT.1,3,F~1,2,1

Crouching recovery (e.g. CH FUFT.3): ws2,4,F S! SET.4 BT.1,3,F~1,2,1

Staples

Staple combos are juggles that:

Can be done consistently by a skilled player
Either work on all body sizes, or the characters it does work on are comprehensively listed
Are not strictly worse than another combo listed in terms of difficulty, damage, wall carry, and oki

The qcf+1 and qcf+2 enders can never wall splat. Since Kuni's combos have a lot of wall carry they should only really be used on infinite stages. The qcf+1 ender side switches.

Replace qcf+1 enders with R.d+1+2. With a wall, on the splat do R.f+2+3 and then do a regular wall combo.
