The combos don't seem to match up.

With Kimimaro going first, and assuming his Tai triggers combos, it would go

Kimi: H.Float > H.Float - Repulse...which leads to
Water Main: Repulse - L.Float > Deer L.Float - Knockdown...which leads to
Ao or Kabuto: Knockdown - Repulse // Knockdown - H. Float

Either Kabuto or Ao would not be involved in this combo.

No offense, but I want something that's a bit more air tight than this. If a character isn't even involved in a combo, can its passives and abilities be counted on to make up for it being stranded?
