Beginner Combos

Basic, simple combos with few requirements or restrictions.

Work on all or nearly all characters.
Require little to no resources (Meter, Assists, Character Specific Stocks).
Need minimal adjustments for positioning or starter.

Basic Web Swing ComboDay 1 execution for good damage

Easy

Damage: 692,800

Meter Gain: ~1.2 bars (costs 1)

2L > 2M > 5H > 6H > j.5M > j.6H > j.236M[Three Arrows] > 5H > 4H > 5S > j.5M > j.5M > j.5H > j.6H > j.5M > j.5H > j.5S > jump > j.236H[Three Arrows] > 236L+H

This combo is extremely useful as a day-1 BNB and deals enough damage and builds enough meter to kill most of the cast with a good DHC behind it.

Core Combos

Core combos that balances reward with execution and reliability.

Works against a selected set of characters.
Can require adjustments for positioning and resources.
Are expected to be consistently performable by a skilled player who main the character.

The Moons (with looped hypers)Better damage, more meter

Easy

Damage: 939,300

Meter Gain: ~1.4 bars (costs 2)

2L > 2M > 5H > 4H > 5S > sjc. > j.5M > j.6H > j.236M[Three Arrows] > 5H > 4H > 5S > j.5M > j.5M > j.5H > j.6H > j.5M > j.5H > j.5S > jump > j.236H[Three Arrows] > 236L+H > 2369M+H

While still being relatively easy, this combo is Taskmaster's definitive BNB. It does huge damage and builds a good amount of meter, enabling you to kill most of the cast even without assist extensions.

Assist Extensions & Combo Enders

Taskmaster benefits from assists by:

Converting his throws into a combo. It is possible to combo solo from his air throw but has minimum height requirement, and is timing dependent.
Building large amount of meter; allowing him to Double Legion Arrow or DHC more often.

Assist Combo Extension
