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+2,1)
- 4,3 S! 1+2*,f,f df+2,4,3
- Crouching recovery (e.g. CH FUFT.3)
- ws4 1 4,3 S! df+2,4,3
- Special cancel launch
- qcb+3+4 S! 1+2*,f,f df+2,4,3

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

FADC
Focus Attack dash cancel (FADC) means doing EX.1+2 and then immediately doing its dash cancel to get a quicker recovery on special moves so that you can combo off them.
The trick to this is knowing what timing to focus on.
- The 1+2 can be input at any time during the startup of the special move being cancelled. Regardless of when it's input, the EX.1+2 always starts at the same time.
- The first f can be input up to 20 frames before the second f. It can be input before or after the 1+2.
- The second f can only be input once the Focus Attack actually starts. The better the timing is here, the better the frame advantage.
- The input of the follow up can be done at any point during the input buffer of the dash cancel's recovery.
The best possible frame advantage from qcf+1 on hit FADC is +15, giving a 2 frame window on the second f to make b+1 combo, and a frame perfect window to make 2 combo.
