Shaheen combos (Tekken 7)

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.

Combo Type	Example Launchers	Combo
Regular	u/f+4 d/f+2 ff+3 d/b+4 d/b+3,4 In Rage d/b+2,4 ws+2 In Rage d/b+2,4~d/f	3~d/f SNK+2 d/b+2~d/f SNK+4,1 S! dash d/b+2~d/f SNK+3
d+2 Pick-up Routes	Low Parry u/f+3 CH b+4 CH (1),(2),2 CH f+(2),4 Tip Range d/f+2	d+2 d/f+1 d/b+2~d/f SNK+4,1 S! dash d/b+2~d/f SNK+3
Counter Hit	CH 4,1	3~d/f SNK+4,1 S! dash d/b+2~d/f SNK+3

Notes:
_{Launchers written in bold require a dash before doing the combo}
_{Launchers written in italic require a SSR before doing the combo}
_{3~d/f will whiff on tip range d/f+2, you can either microdash and do the standing 3 route, or go for a d2 pickup}

Alternative Wall Carry Enders to d/b+2~d/f SNK+3

Written by Contra for the Shaheen Discord

d/f+1 (very close, low slump)
d+2 (close)
SNK+2 (close)
f+(2),4,4 (close-medium, doesn't work on combos with bnb hitcount)
f+2,4,4 (medium, even worse issues with hitcount than above, only use for swag)
d/b+2 SNK+2 / 3+4 SNK+2 (medium)
f+2,3 (medium)
d/b+3,4 (medium-far, high-ish splat, most consistent wallcarry ender)
d/b+2 SNKc ws+3,3 (far, doesnt work on combos with more than 5 hits pre-screw, axis dependant, medium splat, swag)
d/b+2,1 (far, medium splat, delayable for more carry, also usable for medium carry)

Mini-combos

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

Combo Type	Example Launchers	Combo
More Damage BnB's	u/f+4 d/f+2 ff+3 d/b+4 d/b+3,4 In Rage d/b+2,4 ws+2 In Rage d/b+2,4~d/f	_{Intermediate Combo} 3~d/f SNKc ws+1 3~d/f SNK+4,1 S! dash d/b+2~d/f SNK+3 _{Advanced Combo} 3~d/f SNKc ws+1 3~d/f SNK+4,1 S! dash 3+4~d/f SNK+3
ws+1 Pickup route	CH Getup 3 Slide punish CH SNK3+4	_{Beginner Variant} ws+1 d/b+2~d/f SNK+2 d/b+2~d/f SNK+4,1 S! dash d/b+2~d/f SNK+3 _{Advanced Variant} ws+1 d/b+2~d/f SNKc ws+1 d/b+2~d/f SNK+4,1 S! dash 3+4~d/f SNK+3 _{Notes: If Shaheen is in Face-Up Feet-Away position after CH getup 3, replace ws+1 pickup with ws+3} _{The first d/b+2 can be replaced with standing 3, except for when ws+3 is used as the follow up for CH getup 3}
CH f+3 Pick-up	CH f+3	d+3~d/f SNK+2 d/b+2~d/f SNK+4,1 S! dash d/b+2~d/f SNK+3 _{Essentially the normal BnB but with d+3~d/f SNK+2 as the first 2 hits} _{You can do the intermediate and advanced BnB combo routes as long as you pick-up with d+3}

Dash 3+4 will prevent Shaheen from doing Falcon Dive (wr3) and is an easier way to dash in and do standing 3, since he has no neutral 3+4 input.

SNKc

Simply put, SNKc is to cancel SNK (The stance that's accessed after inputting d/f after certain moves or d/f,d/f in neutral) by crouching. After Shaheen enters SNK stance, input d/b to cancel into full crouch. This is used for higher damage combos and wall combos although it is not needed for any basic bread n' butter combo.

Wall

Damage values are with max juggle scaling, without rage, and no breaks.

Wall Enders

d/f+1 b+4
d/f+1 d+1 ws+3,3
2,3~d/f SNKc ws+33

Extras

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.
