  1. ↑ works off of awkward splats

  3. ↑ works off of lower splats than d/f+1,1
  4. ↑ works off of normal splats

Floor Break

Off-axis

Kat's combos are very unstable on off-axis opponents. It is recommended to quickly step to re-align if possible before picking up from a launcher (e.g., after a SSL hopkick whiff punish, quickly do a SSR before d+2). Otherwise, use f,F+4 to immediately screw, then do d+2,F > HAR 1 > b+1,F > HAR 4.

Back-turned opponent

u/f+4,4 > d+2 > d+2 will flip the opponent the right way up to continue the combo. A better option is to simply do b+1,F > HAR d/f+1+2 for 63 dmg. A guaranteed BT option is 1,1,2 > 3,3,3,3,3.

Character-specific

Bears
[every launcher except b+2, CH f+3] > d+2,F,DB > ws4 > d/f+1 > d+2,F > d/f+2,3 S! > dash > d+2,F > HAR 4
[b+2, CH f+3] > d/f+1 > d+2,F,DB > ws4 > d+2,F > d/f+2,3 S! > dash > d+2,F > HAR 4

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.
