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 Example: [67] df+2 > 4 > df+4 > 3,2~b~DF > DPD.2,1 T! > wr2; [65] df+2 > 3,2 > 3,2~b~DF > DPD.2,1 T! > wr2; [64] df+2 > 4 > df+4 > 3,2~b > SWA.1+2 T! > wr2; [62] df+2 > 3,2 > 3,2~b > SWA.1+2 T! > wr2

Low Launch Example: [69] ff+4 > ws3 > 3,2~b~DF > DPD.2,1 T! > wr2; [67] ff+4 > ws4 > 3,2~b > SWA.1+2 T! > wr2

Notes

Combos with more than 1 rep of qcf+1 filler require frame-perfect timing and increasingly strict positioning
Longer qcf+1 routes typically drop if Paul is off axis left or heavily off axis right
All instances of ws4 are done as CD4. The normal iWS input is not fast enough in most cases
Routes with ws3 or ws4 typically drop if Paul is off axis right or heavily off axis left
4 filler after high launch is easier and more consistent than qcf+1, but deals less damage and cannot be looped
qcf+1 pushes axis leftward with each rep
wr2 or 1 > wr2 can be used in place of all 2 > wr2 enders for simpler execution and 1-3 less combo damage
wr2 can be used in place of all 1 > wr2 enders for simpler execution and 1 less combo damage
DPD.3+4 can ~~and should~~ be used in place of any post-Tornado ender or after a high wall splat
1 > wr2 and 2 > wr2 can be partially buffered (see Paul tech for details)
wr2 and jab > wr2 enders may require sidestep (usually SSR) after Tornado to be flush with opponent's feet
Demoman (d+4,2:1+2) can be used as an ender for most SWA.1+2 T! routes. Usually less damage than jab > wr2 even with perfect input, but vital for wall carry/splat at a distance
Demoman may require SSL to fully to connect after some Tornadoes
Demoman will not fully connect at high scaling
f,F+3,4,4, DPD.2,1, f,F+2:1, ws3,2 and qcf+1 can be used in place of most wr2 enders and are ideal for splatting at ranges where Demoman is too close for a wall ender conversion
qcf+1 loops become more lenient if opponent is launched while backturned

Heat Burst

Most max damage Heat Burst combos follow the route of a regular max damage combo, replacing the ender with 2+3 > H.qcf+2~F > qcf+2. Exceptions to this rule are starters that leave Tornado unavailable.

Extra combos are juggles that are:

Strictly worse than one of the § Staples; or
Too inconsistent to be a staple; or
Joke combos for style points.

[microdash_only-4] 1.0 ^1.1 ^1.2 ^1.3 Approach for Clean Hit with microdash only

[microdash_qcf-5] 2.0 ^2.1 Approach for Clean Hit with microdash or extended QCF

[left_axis_only-13] 4.0 ^4.1 ^4.2 ^4.3 ^4.4 ^4.5 Off axis left only

[14] Requires dash before 3,2 if off axis left

[left_axis_drop-15] 6.0 ^6.1 ^6.2 ^6.3 ^6.4 Will not work off axis left

[16] Requires dash before 3,2 if off axis right

[micro-ssl-17] 8.0 ^8.1 Usually requires micro-SSL after launch

[1jab-18] 9.0 ^9.1 For some characters, replace first 2 jab with 1 jab if they are sent too far after ws4

[heavy_right_axis_drop-19] Will not work if heavily off axis right

[20] Requires SSR after launch if heavily off axis left or SSL if heavily off axis right

[22] Omit 1 > dash if more than ~45 degrees off axis [78]

[small-23] Whiffs on smaller characters

[24] WS3 must be done with d,df,n input and slightly delayed, especially on Xiaoyu

[25] May drop depending on qcf+1 timing

[26] Allow the crouch dash to travel a bit

[27] Very tight link on smaller characters

[28] No SSL needed for DPD route

[scaling_1-29] Damage values calculated following 4/5-hit non-CH, non-Heat combo (30% scaling). Add Heat Burst for extra damage, control and oki

[startup-30] 2.0 ^2.1 ^2.2 ^2.3 Includes minimum additional frames for motion inputs (sway canceled attacks not subject to additional startup)

[39] Bears, for the most part, cannot be resplatted due to their extremely tall hurtbox. They either hit the wall immediately or you get a side turned juggle instead.

[40] May require SSR

[41] Buffer forward dash during Heat Dash

[42] SSL after Heat Dash

[43] Low-moderate scaling only, requires right-side positioning
