Smash 4 Zero Suit Samus True Combos Guide

Smash 4 Zero Suit Samus True Combos Guide by Skull_Kid

All combos were tested on a Cptn Falcon CPU, on a flat stage, in training mode. Please keep in mind that hit% and/or combo viability will vary from character, character weight, character height, the player’s execution, DI, timing, the presence of platforms and how the opponent is hit (close, far, in the air ecc). This is a guide to give players a general idea of what true combos are possible and/or useful/useless. If i missed something or you think something is off/wrong, please feel free to correct me. Hopefully you’ll find this list helpful.
