Beginner Combos


Combos One Star.png
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
Load video
YouTube
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. This combo works midscreen or in the corner. Be very careful when in the corner that you don't accidentally switch sides. This can be avoided by delaying the S after 4H, allowing the opponent time to fall and cross back into the corner.

Core Combos


Combos Two Stars.png
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.

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. This combo works midscreen or in the corner. Be very careful when in the corner that you don't accidentally switch sides. This can be avoided by delaying the S after 4H, allowing the opponent time to fall and cross back into the corner.

This is your combo if the opponent is hanging out at super-jump height. This combo works midscreen or in the corner.

Damage: ∞
Meter Gain: ∞
4H > 236M[Three Arrows] > repeat

This combo is a true infinite in x-factor 2 and 3, but in xf1 it still lasts long enough to kill the entire cast if you blow X at the very start of the combo. If you're struggling with the timing, you're likely going too fast. You have a bigger window than you think, as shield skills in XF is only 4-5 frames.

Advanced Combos


Combos Three Stars.png
Advanced Combos are specialized in usage, require awareness, execution, and have advantages over core combos.
  • May only work on a few characters or in specific circumstances.
  • Can have any amount of requirements such as meter, positioning, starter.
  • Are not necessarily harder than core combos, but require more specific knowledge.

[at top of normal jump height] j.6H > 236H[Three Arrows] > land > immediate 4H > 236S

A difficult but rewarding extension that is important for many of Taskmaster's most optimal combos. Height is the key here. You want to time your j.6H just at the top of normal jump height.

Assist Extensions & Combo Enders
