Garnet Best Combos and Moves

Ground Attack and Side Special Combo

MultiVersus - Garnet Side Combo
Down + Attack ► Side + Attack ► Side + Special
This combo deals horizontal damage on opponents. It has a good starting range that will help you connect chain attacks on them. You can inflict at least 20 damage on this combo.

Ground Attack and Down Special Combo

MultiVersus - Garnet Side Combo + Special
Down + Special ► Down + Attack ► Side + Attack ► Side + Special ► Down + Special
This combo is the next level of Garnet's earlier combo. Start this combo by setting up the Star that Garnet will move through using her Down Special. Perform the side combos and press the Down Special again for the follow-up attack. It should increase the damage to 30 after that move.

Crystal Combo / Flying Combo

Garnet wants to build up damage throughout a match, and her combos are her most consistent means of doing it. Carefully space these moves, and use them when your opponents are beside Garnet. Landing the first hit of her Flying Combo close to the ground can string into a grounded Crystal Combo.

Double Jab / Jumping Jabber

Although Garnet has a Horizontal Fighting Style, knocking opponents vertically upward is perfectly viable for her. Her Up + Attack grounded or in the air are both solid options for dealing with opponents above her.

Garnet Best Perks

Perk Explanation
Marker This signature perk allows Garnet to have more options for her combo attacks. It will automatically spawn a Marker after her Side Special reaches its endpoint, which you can also get by using her Down Special. It will also save you time pressing buttons when you need to use her Down Special.
Horizontal Damage Boost Most of Garnet's powerful moves are in the horizontal direction. You can add more damage to those moves by using this perk.
Damage Boost On Debuff Hit Garnet can benefit more from this perk, as it boosts damage dealt against debuffed opponents. She can easily apply an electric debuff against her opponents with her Up Special.
Deadshot You can increase Garnet's poking damage using this perk. It will help you build up damage against opponents faster, especially if you're having trouble chaining up combos and a finisher.

How to Use Garnet

Always Be On The Move

MultiVersus gives us plenty of freedom in the air, allowing for multiple Special and Normal moves before your character lands. Dodges also have very few setbacks. Use these mobility options in conjunction with Garnet's moves to rack up damage and score ring-outs.

Utilize Garnet's Normals

Garnet's Normal moves pack plenty of power and can often string into each other. Always have the presence of mind to know when she can hit her opponents an additional time after landing an initial hit.
