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) |
Combo Docs/Vids
- Combo Doc by Sneaky_Urkel. A handy guide that covers numerous routes and concepts which may not be covered here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Mcw-_Y9rh4ibsMWi6TNMZVMcYk3HExoIzdLr0PKHhIA/edit?usp=sharing
Combo Theory
Your primary goal for combo extensions will be linking into either Coward Crouch~Wild Lift (2PP~P) or OD Ball ([4]6PP). Situationally and in the corner, Rainbow Ball (63214KK) is another great combo extender. All 3 of these options lead to a variety of enders, including guaranteed SA1/3. If your back is to the corner, OD Ball side-swaps making it the preferred combo tool should an opportunity present itself (Reversal DI being a likely one).
5HP is Blanka's most powerful combo-filler normal; routing into it leaves you numerous options to choose from and often leads to Blanka's strongest combos without a Blanka Doll or SA2. 4MK and 6MK are both good and safe combo starters that are safe and easy to confirm from, with 4MK having the added benefit of being advantageous on block.
Using Blanka Chan Bomb (22P) immediately after hitting Coward Crouch~Wild Lift is the most common method to safely deploying a Blanka Doll onto the field at the cost of cutting a combo short. At the cost of 2 drive, you can accomplish the same effect after [4]6PP, or 63214KK as well. Once deployed, mid-screen, enemies can backroll and remain safe. However if they are in the corner or if Blanka has SA2 active they're forced to block or utilize reversal options to escape pressure. If you are in the corner or have SA2 active, sacrificing damage to set up Blanka Chan is often worth it.
- Blanka's OD Ball connects after any M/H Special Cancelable Button. It is only possible to connect OD Ball after Light attacks with a Punish Counter.
- 3HP is an alternative combo ender in many routes that use [2]8MK, and will give you much better oki options over it at the cost of damage.
- SA3 can be substituted in any combo that uses SA1 for a much higher damage payout. It can easily be used after an OD Electric in any combo which uses Electric (214P); You can opt in OD Electric instead of M Blanka Ball (Vertical version included) in numerous routes as well.
- As a general rule, if Drive Meter has been used to launch the enemy once in the combo (OD Ball, OD Rainbow Ball, Drive Impact Wall Slump), then OD Electrics will whiff.
- Blanka Chan Bomb can be set-up safely in any combo which utilizes: 2PP~P/[4]6PP/63214KK. Blanka must input 22P immediately after landing any of the 3.
Normal Hit Starters
All combos listed should work off Counter Hits and Punish Counters as well.
Furthermore, check the Punish Counter section below for information on combos that can only be performed from Normal Hit Starters from a Punish Counter state.
Light Confirms
Overview
There is no sugar coating, Blanka's Light moves will not convert into big damage.
Not only that, their damage output also has been nerfed by ~15% compared to launch day.
Unlike more popular characters, Blanka's Light moves do not connect into Medium or Heavy moves by default, which greatly reduces their effectiveness and rob them of any potential to follow into the most BnB options that you should be learning and will be using most of the time.
Drive Rush
Blanka's Light moves only Drive Rush Cancel into other Light moves.
Despite that giving you enough Frame Advantage to follow up with Medium hits and connect a Medium Confirm Combo, the aggressive damage scaling is going to make you wish you had those 3 Drive Gauge bars instead. See this Example:
- 4MK,2MK>[4]6MP = 2060 damage
- 2LK~2LP>DR~5LK,4MK,2MK>[4]6MP = 1541 damage
- Amazing! An entire chunk worth of 519 damage less, at the low low cost of ONLY 3 bars! Grab them while they are hot!!!
So... that means I should never use Blanka's Light moves, right?
Well... Not really, let's do a DOs and DON'Ts
Do | Don't |
---|---|
Chain Combo! The only chain combo you have is 5LK/2LK/2LP~2LK/2LP and sometimes it is nice all the extra time it provides for a hit confirm. |
Default to starting your combos off these, you are not Mr. Ken Masters anymore. |
Get those frames! 5LK is your startup king (4F) and your despair mashing companion. |
Rush to empty your Drive Gauge just because your chain connected, take it slow, enjoy your 1000 damage and move on. |
Charge! Get used to 4LP/4LK instead of 5LP/5LK and 1LP/1LK instead of 2LP/2LK so you are ready to end your Chain combos with Rolling Attack instead of Electric Thunder. |
Miss the combo opportunity. Be ready to finish off your chain if it connects, don't let the desperation mashing rob you out of extra ~500 damage. |
Drive Rush! What???? You can't be serious... Picture this... Round 3... SA3 already spent... Mr. Ken Masters at <15% HP is desperately pressuring you. Time to convert that 5LK mashing punish into a Full Combo! K.O. |

Medium Confirms
Overview
Welcome to where things take a weird turn after the Light confirm disappointment.
Blanka has access to a lot from his Medium move set, take some time getting used to them as Range and Frame Advantage greatly varies from move to move and they play an interesting factor in picking which move you are going for depending on your end goal. Go back and read the overview page for more details.
Drive Rush
Welcome (yes, again) to your full set of combos!
With the power of Drive Rush we can achieve anything your mind can wish for from a single Medium confirm, maybe even end world hunger if we figure the correct button presses for that.
Jokes aside, Blanka's Medium>DRC can always go into 5HK, which in turn gives you just enough frames to 5HP and now we are in familiar territory. 5HP is the move that you should strive for with Blanka, as it gives you so many options including safe Blanka Doll setups, also can be routed into any SA.
Do | Don't |
---|---|
Learn what are the correct options based on the range and frame pressure you are trying to exert | Fall for the frame traps, these moves have minimum 8F of startup time. You may find yourself getting 5LP checked because you fired a 5MK after blocking a string |
Be ready to convert, landing a Medium is your ticket to meterless 2000+ damage or even 4000+ at the cost of some bars | Default on going for the Drive Rush Cancel combos, they are cool and all, tons of damage, but do not burn yourself out for no reason |
Practice your AA, Overhead, Mix-up, Cross-up, Pokes... they are all here! | |

Heavy Confirms
Overview
The duality of mankind...
As never seen before...
HK and HP could not be any more different from each other...
Yet, one cannot live without the other...
Coming up, this Holiday season...
I Drive, You Rise, We Bite!
Let's start with HP... the perfection, the dream, everything a SF character ever asked for, such damage, much versatile... just a little too slow, a little too stubby...
As a Blanka player, watching as HP connects is just pure bliss, anything that follows next is just peace and joy in it's purest form.
And then, we have HK... ~sighs~... it somehow manages to be even more stubbier than HP... ~sighs~ any possible use for that swipe gets overshadowed by 3HP... ~sighs~ not cancelable... ~sighs~ only +6F on hit, 5LP only connects at point blank... ~sighs~ -4F on block... ~sighs~
(For poetry purposes I'll choose to ignore how amazing of an AA it is)
But then... one day... they meet each other by the power of the Green Magic...
And EVERYTHING changes!
Green Magic
If you haven't figured by now, We are talking about Drive Rush.
Remember how you can ever Drive Rush Cancel any cancelable Medium into 5HK. By chance, fate or divine act, it so happens that 5HK is exactly +10F out of that, and guess who has 2 thumbs and takes exactly 10 frames of startup?... Yeah, 5HP
Once 5HP hits, a lot of options open up, so keep in mind that all the combos listed below will also work after a DR>5HK

Drive Impact,5HP>2PP~P,[2]8MK/236236P Drive Impact,5HP>2PP~P,214P>236236K |
Anywhere | 2800/3220/4500 | Easy | Drive Impact Starter examples. Can tack on whatever ender you'd like w/ the right amount of meter, including SA2 if you choose to OD Electric. Wild Lift has numerous follow-up options and setups, so experiment. |
[4]6HP,Drive Rush>3HP | Anywhere | 2240 | Easy | Punish combo extension from your standard Blanka Ball. 1-Drive for an extra 700 damage is great value, so get used to using this on reaction to a punish counter. |
5LK,5MK>214P 5LP/5LK>Drive Rush Cancel>5HK,5HP>2PP~P,[2]8MK 5LP/5LK>[4]6PP,j.MP>j.[4]6HP |
Anywhere | 1540/2529/2340 | Easy/Medium/Hard | Light punish combo examples. 1st is consistent at all ranges, the other two utilize drive for consistency and juiced damage, great for many attacks which are -4/-6. Application will require matchup knowledge. |
5HK,5HP>2PP~P,[2]8MK | Anywhere | 3150 | Easy | -7 punish that happens to be your standard drive rush extension. As HK is only -2 and has a large animation for hit-confirming, having this as a hit-confirm alongside 5HK,5LP is pretty useful should you occasionally toss out 5HK in your pressure. |
5HK,3HP 5HK,236236P/236236K 5HK,[4]6PP,[2]8K 5HK,Dash,63214KK,3HP 5HK,Drive Rush>5HP>2PP~P,etc. |
Anywhere | 2-5k | Medium | Anti-Air counter-hit combo routes. Enemy is propelled upward after counter-hit, allowing some follow-ups even after a trade. Just a few examples of what's possible. |
6MP,5LP>214P 6MP,5HK,5LP>[4]6MP |
Anywhere | 1660-2600 | Easy | Overhead combo from Counter-hit and Punish Counter respectively. |
6HP,Dash,5HP>2PP~P,[2]8LK/236236P 6HP,5HP>[4]6PP,j.MP>j.[4]6HP |
Anywhere | 3100/3580/3440 | Hard | Punishes for blocked reversals. Drive Rush can be used to guarantee the 5HP extension, but this will prorate the combo and cost drive meter which you may rather avoid. [4]6PP route is easier and more flexible (Numerous capable routings after [4]6PP leaves them airborne) at the cost of 2-drive but forces side-swap. |
6HP,Dash,5HP>2PP~P,63214KK,3HP/236236P | Corner | 3480/3980 | Easy/Hard | Punish for blocked reversals near the corner. If the opponent is close to the corner, the dash is unnecessary, making the route much easier. |
Whiff Punishes

Combo Data
Combo | Position | Damage | Difficulty | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
2MP/5MK>Drive Rush Cancel>5HK,5HP>2PP~P,Etc. | Anywhere | 2900 Minimum | Medium | 3-Drive for a reliable, on-demand whiff punish route with numerous options left open for you after Wild Lift. Worth learning. +3-4k damage can be easily tacked on with SA1-3 use. |
5LP/2LP>Drive Rush Cancel>5HK,5HP>2PP~P,Etc. | Anywhere | 2500 Minimum | Medium | Similar to the above, but from 5LP/2LP which have above average range for Light Attacks. Good for possible spacing traps such as after a blocked Electric. |
5LP/2LP>Drive Rush Cancel>5LK,4MK,2MK>[4]6MP/236236P | Anywhere | 1903/2311 | Easy | An easier alternative from 5LP/2LP utilizing the standard light drive rush combo. Use if you cannot confirm the Punish Counter as this still leads to pressure/damage. |
2/5MP>236236P/K | Anywhere | 2700/4700 | Easy | Buffer super behind either MP for a quick and easy whiff punish requiring no Drive. Can also be used as a basic poke/counter-poke, but be careful as SA 1 and 3 are very punishable if blocked. |
2MP>[4]6PP,j.MP>j.[4]6HP | Anywhere | 2660 | Hard | On the odd chance you have a charge ready when you whiff punish and really want to save 1 drive meter. |
Drive Rush Starters
Overview
Drive Rush combos divided by category.
Combo Data
Combo | Position | Damage | Difficulty | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
Basics | ||||
DriveRush>6MK,5HP Routes | Anywhere | 2790+ | Medium | Your BNB. DR>6MK is an easy to confirm button due to its length and can be used as a meaty in some situations. If it lands, opt for any 5HP routing you want. Alternatively DR>4MK gives enormous frame advantage, making it a decent/safer option for extending pressure by simply looping into itself as shown in the combo below. |
Safer Options | ||||
(No Hit-Confirm) DriveRush>4MK,4MK,5LK>214P (Hit Confirm) DriveRush>4MK,4MK,1MK>[4]6MP |
Anywhere | 2000 2440+ |
Easy | Must be point-blank to the opponent: Easier to confirm due to repetition, HAS TO be reversed or parried. Can frame trap. No Hit-Confirm: Use drive to 214PP for +4F and continue pressure if blocked. Hit Confirm: Use drive to extend a combo with a [4]6PP Route. |
