Mai doesn't necessarily need to use her chainable light attacks in the same order.
=== Light Confirm Combos ===
* {{clr|L|5LP}} has the least pushback and the most hitstun. It is required in order for certain special moves to combo.
* {{clr|L|2LP}} has slightly more pushback but also more range. Using it as the last hit in a chain lets combos work from further away.
* {{clr|L|2LK}} has the most pushback but hits low, meaning it can catch opponents trying to walk or jump away. Avoid using it when too far away to connect with {{clr|L|2LP}} afterwards.
 
The following shorthand notation is used to indicate which light attacks a combo can be adjusted to work with.
* {{clr|L|L}} ~ means any chainable light attack can be used. Note that this '''does not''' include {{clr|L|5LK}}.
* {{clr|L|LP}} means either of {{clr|L|5LP}} or {{clr|L|2LP}} can be used.

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)
CollapseMai Additional Combo Notation
Notation Meaning
F.X The Flame Enhanced version of the following special move is required. e.g. 5LP > F.236MK.
*.X Either the Flame Enhanced OR the normal version of the following special move can be used. e.g. 5LP > *.236KK.
The damage of the Flame Enhanced version will be denoted in brackets ().
When both of the above are omitted, the normal non-Flame Enhanced version of the special move should be used.

Light Confirm Combos

Mai doesn't necessarily need to use her chainable light attacks in the same order.

  • 5LP has the least pushback and the most hitstun. It is required in order for certain special moves to combo.
  • 2LP has slightly more pushback but also more range. Using it as the last hit in a chain lets combos work from further away.
  • 2LK has the most pushback but hits low, meaning it can catch opponents trying to walk or jump away. Avoid using it when too far away to connect with 2LP afterwards.

The following shorthand notation is used to indicate which light attacks a combo can be adjusted to work with.

  • L ~ means any chainable light attack can be used. Note that this does not include 5LK.
  • LP means either of 5LP or 2LP can be used.
Combo Position DamageFlame Stocks Drive Gauge Super Gauge Difficulty Notes Video
L ~ L ~ LP > 236LK > (SA3) Anywhere 1290
3230(3480)		0 Easy Standard corner carry route that leads to a +27 knockdown, leaving the opponent close enough to dash up to even when mid-screen.
L ~ L ~ 5LP > 214MP > (SA3) Anywhere 1350
3350(3600)		0 0
3		 Easy Slightly more damage and a better +35 frame knockdown, but provides significantly less corner carry.
Makes charged fan setups safer against Drive Impact and forward jump, and in the corner sets up frame-kill 5LK into meaty 6MP overhead.
L ~ L ~ LP > 623HK Anywhere 14700 Easy More damaging route with a +31 knockdown.
Knocks the opponent further away, so while this does work mid-screen it is better suited for the corner.
L ~ L ~ 5LP > 214LP Anywhere 12300 Easy Ends at a +3 advantage, leaving the opponent standing so they cannot use Wake-up Drive Reversal.
(LP,) 5LK~LK~LK > j.214P Anywhere 15700 Easy Short range confirm. Linking from 5LP or 2LP is interruptible on block so it's usually better to immediately start with 5LK.
Sets up a +41 knockdown for a 6f safe jump, or +42 for a 5f safe jump if spaced correctly.
On block, forego j.214P to land with a -10 frame disadvantage at a range that is impossible to punish for most characters.
L ~ L ~ LP > 236KK, j.MP > j.214P Anywhere 17700 2 Medium Spending resources for corner carry.
L ~ L ~ LP > 236KK, j.MP, 623HK Anywhere 18300 0 Medium More damage, but not as effective mid-screen due to the longer range knockdown.
L ~ L ~ LP > 236KK, j.MP, SA1 Corner 20700(+5) 1 Medium A fairly inexpensive way to get stocks when close enough to the corner.
L ~ L ~ LP > 236KK, j.MP, (j.214PP >) SA2 Anywhere 2590

2		 Medium Big corner carry. Skip j.214PP and land to do the grounded version of SA2 for better knockdown advantage.
L ~ L ~ LP > 236KK, dl.j.MP, (214LP >) (SA3) Anywhere 1710
3710(3960)		0 0
3		 Hard 3 frame timing window on the delay for 214LP to work. Too late and j.MP doesn't connect, too early and 214LP doesn't connect.
L ~ LP > SA1 Anywhere 19400(+5) 1 Medium The only way to get SA1 from light attacks without spending Drive Gauge is to go straight into it.
L ~ L ~ LP > SA2 Anywhere 24300 2 Medium Useful for taking away the last bit of an opponent's Drive Gauge.
Also provides a lot of corner carry but doesn't lead to the best follow-ups if the opponent doesn't make it to the corner.
L ~ L ~ LP > DRC~5LP, (Drive Rush Combo) Anywhere 1647+  3+ Medium Links into any of 5HP, 4HK or 2MP.

4HK~HK Anywhere 20000 Easy Single-hit confirmable.
4HK~HK, 623MK/SA1 Corner 2660

1		 Easy Single-hit confirmable.
5HP/M > 236P/PP Anywhere 13000 0/2 Easy Safe on block so doesn't need to be hit-confirmed.
Use 236LP to get the best frame advantage, or 236HP when further away to keep it gapless on block. Or forget all that and just toss 236PP to try to get something started.

Use 236HK for corner carry or 623HK for damage.

Standing		 2160
4160(4410)		0 0
3		 Medium More difficult to confirm due to only connecting against standing opponents.
More practical as a combo ender after already confirming the opponent to be standing.
+30 knockdown after 236LK.
5HP/M > 214HP, 623HP Anywhere
Standing		 24400 Medium Better damage than 236LK, but less corner carry makes this better suited for the corner.
+30 knockdown.
5HP/M > 214PP, SA1 Anywhere 34000(+5) 2 1 Medium One of the simplest ways to combo into SA1 mid-screen.
5HP/M > 214PP, 236KK, DR~5LP > 236LK, SA1 Corner 34920(+5) 3 1 Medium Corner carry into SA1.
5HP/M > 214PP, 236KK, j.MP, SA1 Corner 38000(+5) 4 1 Medium A slightly more expensive way to get slightly more corner carry into SA1.
5HP/M > 214PP, 236KK, dl.j.MP, 6~SA1 Anywhere 38000(+5) 4 1 Very Hard Using manual delays and a micro-walk to make the previous combo work mid-screen.

Strict timing on the 5HP after dashing twice; dashes are not required, but are useful for timing and for extra corner carry.

Drive Rush Cancel Extensions

Mai can arbitrarily extend her combos after a cancelable button by drive rush canceling. This may be a good option if the opponent's health is low and Mai is able to finish them off by extending her combos for a bit longer. She can also extend her combos to gain access to better setups, or just for better corner carry.
