It has a few true combos but the most reliable is Side Light > Down Light > Down Light, you have to hit the Side Light with the last hitbox. After that you can look into dash/chase-dodge cancels. Basically after you hit an opener/bridge and dash/chase dodge you can cancel it into another opener.

A few useful (unjumpable) examples are:

• Side Light/Down Light opener into Neutral Light opener.
• Neutral Light bridge into Neutral Light opener.
• Side Light bridge into Neutral Light opener.

Note: There is alot more to this weapon than this, it has a very low playrate since the nerfs and even pros think the weapon is still unexplored so you have alot of room to experiment with it!
