Note: Juggernaut is only allowed a 2 button chain unless he is super jumping so his combos tend to follow a very simple path. Adding to that limitation, a solo Juggernaut can only combo a ground chain into the following buttons:
Your bread and butter. Easy to perform under pressure and, even unmashed, will seriously damage any character when Juggernaut has the Power-Up glitch. If you have the meter, unless you have a specific plan for it, it's highly recommend you just pull the trigger any time you land a hit.
c.LK > s.HP xx Headcrush
A simple, meterless combo. Low damage but can be useful for dealing with assists that might be preventing some other combos.
[Close] c.LK > s.LP xx HP Earthquake
Your strongest, inescapable, meterless combo. Will send the opponent flying which will cause a flying screen dash for you, which can be potentially fatal for Juggernaut depending on the matchup.
[Close] c.LK > s.HP xx LP Juggernaut Punch
A simple way to scramble for damage off of an accidental c.HP.
j.HP \/ c.HP xx HK Body Press
Rollable. The strongest, meterless option off of a sweep. Either strength Juggernaut Punch will connect but LP is safer when the opponent rolls.
c.LK > c.LK xx LP Juggernaut Punch
F + HP is a pretty lackluster move in this game but it might be useful as a meaty in the corner. Also note that this is a superjump cancel, not a jump cancel. Instead of holding up to leave the ground you have to return to neutral, then down, then up.
(Corner) [Close] F + HP /\ sj.LK > sj.MP xx LK Body Press
The dash-in is crucial. A high damage, unrollable route for midscreen Juggernaut Punch.
j.HP \/ d.s.HP xx LP Juggernaut Punch
Meterless style combo for the corner. Builds a ton of meter compared to your other combos. Flying screen is set so you really can't get any more than this. You have the option of leaving the final hit off which forces your opponent to roll into the corner, allowing you to continue your pressure.
(Corner) j.HP \/ c.HP /\ sj.LK > sj.MP > sj.HP > sj.HK \/ c.LK > F + HP
Rollable. The most damaging, midscreen combo Juggernaut has access to.
j.HP \/ c.LK > c.LK xx HP Juggernaut Punch xx Headcrush
This combo allows for Headcrush to be mashed a little easier than others due to the spacing. Useful for when you find yourself without Power-Up glitch and need a little help getting the full 8 hits on Headcrush.
(Corner) j.HP \/ d.s.LK > s.HP xx LP Juggernaut Punch, c.LP xx Headcrush
Rollable. The only possible damage extension after a midscreen ground throw. Works with either throw. Doesn't work on heavy characters.
Throw, HP Juggernaut Punch xx Headcrush
Juggernaut's answer for people putting him in the corner. Juggernaut has surprisingly amazing juggle potential after a throw into the corner which makes this combo pretty forgiving to execute. Works with either throw. Doesn't work on heavy characters.
Throw /\ j.LK > j.HK \/ Headcrush
