Numpad Notation

How do I read/Why are there numbers in my combos?

Numpad notation is the generally agreed upon format for sharing combos. You don’t have to learn it right away but the idea is numbers represent direction in relation to a keyboard numpad.

  • 2 is down, 6 is forward, etc. (assumes P1 side aka left side)
  • [H] means charged H
  • j.M means the air version of M. It does not mean jump every time you see j written in a combo
  • ~ is used for special moves that have follow-ups. For example, S2~M means S2 and then the M follow-up
  • I use > to make combos easier to read.

Example Blitz Combo

M H 2H > j.M j.2H j.H > 2H j.[2H] j.H > H 2H > j.2H j.H j.S1 Super 1
