It's more of a case of feel, not simply memorization.

It's hard to say, but I think you're overthinking it too much, which is why I see some people get frustrated with fighting games if they're just starting out.

And it kinda sucks as in the heyday when arcades were a thing, you got the most experience from there as you literally were (if anyone did join in against you) playing with your right to stay on the machine (and keeping your quarters) on the line.

You don't need to memorize all the big combos, as if the other person isn't letting you START said combos, you're going to be just as on the losing end and frustrated.

So in short, don't poo-poo on a genre you don't like. There's genres of games I don't care for, but if well made enough people will play the heck out of it, so I'm not gonna rain on that parade just from my not understanding of it. :)
