Luke's Charged Flash Knuckles have a regular and a Perfect version. The regular versions will be notated as {{clr|L|214[LP]}}, {{clr|M|214[MP]}}, {{clr|H|214[HP]}}, and Perfect versions as {{clr|L|pf.214LP}}, {{clr|M|pf.214MP}}, {{clr|H|pf.214HP}}.

MP Flash Knuckle is primarily relegated to midscreen combos. The wallbounce is big enough to take opponents out of the corner. MP Flash will not wallbounce more than once in a combo. The Parry Drive Rush extension is best used after a Knuckle launch as it is extremely resource efficient damage.

Combo Notation Guide

Click "Expand" for information about combo notation in SF6:

SF6 Combo Notation Guide
Notation Meaning
> Cancel the previous move to the following move.
e.g. Normal into Special (2MK > 236P) or Special into Super (623P > 236236K)
~ Chain/Cancel the previous move into a followup.
e.g. Luke's target combo (LP~MP~HP) or Rising Uppercut into Slam Dunk (623PP~PP)
, Link the previous move to the following move.
e.g. 5MP, 2MP (requires manual timing)
An example with Ken that uses all three "connecting" symbols:
2LP, 5MP~HP > 623P > 236236P
2LP links into 5MP; 5MP chains into HP Target Combo; HP cancels into Shoryuken which cancels into Lv.3 Super
j.X Jumping action; for Neutral Jump, use 8j.X
e.g. Kimberly j.2MP (Elbow Drop) or Ryu j.214K (Aerial Tatsumaki Senpukyaku)
P or K Any Punch or Any Kick (when button strength does not matter)
PP or KK represents any two punches/kicks.
X/Y Do either X move or Y move.
e.g. end a combo with 214K/623P
[X] Hold the button input
e.g. Luke 214[LP] = charged LP Flash Knuckle
dl.X Briefly delay the action
e.g. Ken 236HK~dl.6LK (Jinrai Loop starter)
AA Anti-air; hit the opponent while they're mid-air.
May cause a different juggle state compared to a grounded opponent.
Y xN
{Y} xN		 Repeat 'Y' input 'N' number of times.
A sequence of multiple inputs will be bundled into "{}".
e.g. 5LP x3 (5LP, 5LP, 5LP) or {2HP > Drive Rush} x3
Y > DR Button Y cancelled into Drive Rush (3-bar version)
e.g. 5HP > DR
DR~Y Drive Rush into Button Y (cancel the dash frames early into a followup attack)
This can be done from the 1-bar or 3-bar versions of Drive Rush
e.g. 236HP Launch, DR~5LP
An example for Ryu using both Drive Rush notations:
2MK > DR~5HP (cancel 2MK into Drive Rush, then immediately use 5HP during dash animation)

Luke's Charged Flash Knuckles have a regular and a Perfect version. The regular versions will be notated as 214[LP], 214[MP], 214[HP], and Perfect versions as pf.214LP, pf.214MP, pf.214HP.

Normal Hit

Normals
Combo Position Damage Drive Gauge Super Gauge Difficulty Notes Video
2MP, 5LK/2LP... Anywhere 0 0 Easy This doubles as a pressure string but will trade with 4f buttons when using 5LK.
2LK > 2LP > 2LP...
2LP > 2LK > 2LP...		 Anywhere 0 0 Very Easy Doubles as a pressure string. This will inherently beat wake-up Drive Impact due to being three hits, and all three lights are cancelable to counter DI. It will lose to other reversal options like Parry or DPs.
spaced 5HK > 2LP...
Anywhere 0 0 Medium While 5HK is usually only +2 on hit, it can be spaced to be up to +7. 2LP always connects after a spaced hit.
j.X > 2HP... Anywhere 0 0 Easy Even j.LP and j.LK can connect to 2HP on a deep enough hit.
Target Combos
Combo Position Damage Drive Gauge Super Gauge Difficulty Notes Video
5LP~MP~HP > 214HP Anywhere 1640 0 0 Easy This target combo is amazing. It gives Luke good damage and a knockdown out of a big 7f normal while also being safe with a special cancel.
5LP~MP~HP > 236MP, 623LP Corner 1850 0 0 Medium Corner variant.
5MP~MP~MP~MP Anywhere 1490 0 0 Very Easy 5MP is a great whiff punish tool.

CH 5LP, 2LP... Anywhere 0 0 Easy
CH 5LK, 2LP... Anywhere 0 0 Easy
CH 2LP, 2MP... Anywhere 0 0 Easy 2LP into 2MP is a great CH confirm, as it connects at almost any 2LP range except at the very tip.
CH 2MP, 2MP... Anywhere 0 0 Easy 2LP into 2MP is a great CH confirm, as it connects at almost any 2LP range except at the very tip.
CH 2MP, 5LP~MP~HP... Anywhere 0 0 Easy 2LP into 2MP is a great CH confirm, as it connects at almost any 2LP range except at the very tip.

CH 6MP, 2LP... Anywhere 0 0 Easy Luke's overhead gives him a link to 2LP on CH.
CH 4HP, 2LP... Anywhere 0 0 Easy While this usually lands as a Punish Counter, it is useful to know that 4HP can link into 2LP on CH as well.
CH 4HK, 2MP... Anywhere 0 0 Easy Another move that is usually a Punish Counter, but good to know nonetheless.
CH 236HP, 2LP... Anywhere 0 0 Medium Heavy Sand Blast usually catches people mashing after a blocked 5HP.

Punish Counter

PC 214MP, 2HP... Anywhere 0 0 Medium Highest damaging meterless Punish Counter combo starter. Most optimal DP punish if you can't land DR 4HK and don't want to meter dump.
PC 4HK, 5HP > 66, 4HK, 2HP... Anywhere 3 0 Medium If you can't land DR 4HK, this is your second highest damaging full meter dump combo starter.
MPMK~66~PC 4HK, MPMK~66~4HK, 2HP... Anywhere 2 0 Hard With a Drive Rush PC 4HK, you can link another Drive Rush 4HK, which leads to your highest damage combos. A full Drive and Meter dump combo can do upwards of 6900 damage! (nice)

Drive Impact

Combo Theory

Perfect Knuckle Breakdown

Every non-OD version of Flash Knuckle (214P) can be charged by holding down the respective P button. When charging and releasing a P button within a specific 3 frame window (frames 18~20 for all versions), Luke will yell out "PERFECT" and Flash Knuckle will gain an enhanced property depending on the version used:

  • pf.214LP has +100 Damage and 3 less Recovery
  • pf.214MP has +100 Damage and 1 less Startup, allowing it to combo from 2HP
  • pf.214HP has +300 Damage

Perfect Light and Medium Knuckles are required for Luke's highest damage combos. Practicing them is recommended but not required, as charged 214LP and 214PP provide good juggles while not needing to hit a fairly tight window. Still, if you want to learn how to Perfect Knuckle, look for the bright flash and sound cue each Knuckle makes during their Startup to know when to release the P button.

For pf.214LP and pf.214HP, it is better to slightly overcharge them, as 214[LP] will still allow a slightly worse follow-up juggle, while 214[HP] only affects damage.

For pf.214MP, it is better to slightly undercharge it, since 214[MP] cannot combo from any of Luke's normals and will end up being blocked and leave him at -3, while 214MP will leave him at +3 slightly outside Throw range.

2HP is Your Best Friend

Luke's highest damage combos come from canceling 2HP into Perfect 214MP (midscreen) or 214LP (corner). You can land 2HP after jump-ins, Drive Rush enhanced normals, PC Drive Impact, and various other CH or PC scenarios.

Midscreen, after landing 2HP > pf.214MP, you have a lot of options to continue the juggle. Which one to use depends on your resources, and if you want to prioritise damage or oki.

Medium Flash Knuckle

Meterless

Tackle Ender
Medium


... 2HP > pf.214MP, 236K~P

Best meterless ender for oki that leaves you point-blank +13~15 after forward dashing with a cornered opponent when slightly past the middle of the stage. This also sets up a last active frame meaty 4HK that links into 2HP on hit and leaves you spaced at -2 on block.

Light Knuckle into Heavy Knuckle
Hard


... 2HP > pf.214MP, pf.214LP, 214HP
... 2HP > pf.214MP, 214[LP], 214MP

Best meterless ender for damage but has bad oki unless already close to the corner.

If you don't get a Perfect Light Knuckle, link into uncharged 214MP instead.

Drive Rush 5HP

Drive Rush 5HP > Light Knuckle > Tackle Ender
Hard


... 2HP > pf.214MP, MPMK~66~5HP > pf.214LP, 236K~P

1 Drive Bar variant of the meterless combo which has extreme corner carry (3/4 of the screen) and gives oki midscreen. Use when far from the corner. Perfect Light is required for Tackle to hit.

Drive Rush 5HP > Light Knuckle > Heavy Knuckle
Medium


... 2HP > pf.214MP, MPMK~66~5HP > pf.214LP/214[LP], 214HP

1 Drive Bar variant of the meterless combo which has significantly more corner carry and slightly more damage. Use when starting from the middle of the stage or closer for good oki and a cornered opponent. You don't have to hit a Perfect Light to combo into Heavy but you will have 4 frames less advantage.

Drive Rush 5HP > Charged Heavy Knuckle
Medium


... 2HP > pf.214MP > MPMK~66~5HP > pf.214HP/214[HP]

Sets up a safe jump for one Drive Bar. After landing a perfect or charged 214HP, whiff 2MP then forward jump > j.HK. For good oki midscreen, you will have to forward dash then slightly delay forward jump to land meaty j.HK.

Metered

Level 1 Combo (Driveless)
Hard


... 2HP > pf.214MP, pf.214LP/214[LP] > dl.236236P

Only worth going for if it kills, as this ender gives bad oki even when fairly close to the corner. You have to slightly delay 236236P for the first hit, otherwise the first hit of Level 1 whiffs.

Level 1 Combo (1 Drive Bar)
Hard


... 2HP > pf.214MP, MPMK~66~5HP > pf.214LP/214[LP] > dl.236236P

1 Drive Bar variant for slightly more damage. Not delaying here is even worse, causing you miss the first 2 hits.

Level 2 Combo (1 Drive Bar)
Hard


... 2HP > pf.214MP, MPMK~66~5HP > 214214P

Recommended to go for if you're under 2 Drive Bars and really don't want to Burn Out, otherwise the 2 Drive Bar version is better.

Level 2 Combo (2 Drive Bars)
Hard


... 2HP > pf.214MP, 236KK~P > 214214P

OD Tackle deals great damage, making this route pretty resource efficient.

Level 2 Combo (3 Drive Bars)
Hard


... 2HP > pf.214MP, MPMK~66~5HP > pf.214LP/214[LP], 236KK~P > 214214P

A fusion of the two routes above. Due to Drive Rush's scaling, it actually deals less damage in shorter routes, such as j.HK into 2HP, than the 2 Drive Bar variant. Only go for in already scaled routes, such as 2MK > Drive Rush.

Level 3 Combo (Driveless)
Hard


... 2HP > pf.214MP, pf.214LP, 214HP > 236236K
... 2HP > pf.214MP, 214[LP], 214MP > 236236K

Same combo as the best meterless ender with a Level 3 at the end.

If you don't get a Perfect Light Knuckle, link into uncharged 214MP instead, which still combos into Level 3

Level 3 Combo (1 Drive Bar)
Hard


... 2HP > pf.214MP, MPMK~66~5HP > pf.214HP/214[HP] > 236236K
OR
... 2HP > pf.214MP, MPMK~66~5HP > pf.214LP/214[LP], 214HP > 236236K

There are 2 possible route you can do depending on your confidence with landing Perfect Knuckles. The first route is higher risk and reward, since pf.214HP deals the most damage, but 214[HP] deals the least. Meanwhile, the second route consistently deals good damage even if you miss pf.214LP.

Midscreen Light/OD Flash Knuckle

You can connect a Perfect/Charged Light Knuckle from 2HP or Counter-Hit/Punish Counter 5HP (great meterless whiff punish). If you're not confident with landing a Perfect Medium Knuckle, it is recommended to cancel into Light Knuckle instead.

Combo from Light/Medium Normals (Driveless)
Very Easy


... (any cancelable normal) > 214LP (> 236236K)

Your basic combo from a Light and Medium normal. Can cancel into Level 3 as well.

Combo from Light/Medium Normals (2 Drive Bars)
Easy


... (any cancelable normal) > 214PP, 214MP (> 236236K)

... (any cancelable normal) > 214PP > 214214P
... (any cancelable normal) > 214PP, dl.236236P

... (any cancelable normal) > 214PP~PP (additional 1 Drive)

Canceling into OD Knuckle adds a good chunk of damage and corner carry. Can cancel into Level 2 or 3. Delay Level 1 link slightly for all hits to connect. Spending an additional Drive bar gives Luke a hard knockdown and an absurd amount of damage, but he can also opt to do a Drive Rush extension for more corner carry midscreen or a meterless juggle in the corner.

Combo from Heavy Normals (Driveless)
Medium


... 2HP or CH/PC 5HP > pf.214LP, 214HP (> 236236K)
... 2HP or CH/PC 5HP > 214[LP], 214MP (> 236236K)

Cancel into 214MP instead of 214HP if you fail a Perfect Knuckle. Can cancel into Level 3 at the end.

Combo from Heavy Normals (1 Drive Bar)
Hard


... 2HP or CH/PC 5HP > pf.214LP, MPMK~66~2HP > pf.214MP/214[MP], 214HP/236K~P (> 236236K)

Tackle gives you better oki midscreen while Heavy Knuckle deals more damage. You have to land a Light Perfect but do not have to land a Medium Perfect for this route to work. Can cancel into Level 3 at the end.

Combo from Heavy Normals into Level 2 (2 Drive Bars)
Hard


... 2HP or CH/PC 5HP > pf.214LP, 236KK~P > 214214P

Light Perfect is required for OD Tackle to combo. This route is only worth going for when you want to combo into a Level 2. Otherwise, go for the 1 Drive Bar route above.

Combo from Heavy Normals into Level 2 (3 Drive Bars)
Hard


... 2HP or CH/PC 5HP > pf.214LP, MPMK~66~2HP > pf.214MP/214[MP], 236KK~P > 214214P

Combination of the 1 and 2 Drive bar routes.

Corner Light/OD Flash Knuckle

Generally, all routes (except those that include a Medium Knuckle) from the Midscreen section also work in the corner. This section will only list corner-specific routes.

Sand Blast into Rising Upper Ender
Medium


... 2HP or CH/PC 5HP > pf.214LP, 236MP, 623HP

... 2HP or CH/PC 5HP > 214[LP], 236MP, 623MP

... (any cancelable normal) > 214PP, 236LP, 623LP

Essentially the same enders with different versions of Sand Blast and Rising Upper used. Everything has to be linked as soon as possible, otherwise the DP ender can whiff and leave very punishable.

Sand Blast into Level 1/2
Medium


... 2HP or CH/PC 5HP > pf.214LP, 236MP, 236236P/214214P

... 2HP or CH/PC 5HP > 214[LP], 236MP, 236236P/214214P

... (any cancelable normal) > 214PP, 236LP, 214214P

Simply replace the DP ender with a Level 1 or 2. Level 3 cannot combo due to its slow startup. Note that after OD Knuckle, Level 1 cannot combo after LP Sand Blast.

Drive Rush Extension
Medium


... 2HP or CH/PC 5HP > pf.214LP, MPMK~66~5HP > 236HP, 623HP/236236P/214214P
... 2HP or CH/PC 5HP > 214[LP], MPMK~66~2HP > 236HP, 623HP/236236P/214214P

Use DR 5HP or DR 2HP depending on if you landed a Perfect or not.

j.MP into Delayed Partially Charged Air Knuckle into Super Art
Very Hard


... 2HP or CH/PC 5HP > pf.214LP, j9 > j.MP > dl.214[P] (partial) > 236236P/214214P/236236K

Highest damage corner route into Supers. This is Luke's hardest route to do consistently, as it requires you to land a Light Perfect, immediately j.MP, then both delay cancel **and** partially charge into Air Knuckle. Linking afterwards into either a Level 1 or 2 is relatively simple, but due to Level 3's slow startup, you have to almost maximum both delay and partially charge the Air Knuckle cancel.
