A sequence of moves strung together so each one keeps the opponent in blockstun. The point isn't damage, it's pressure: they can't act, so you keep your turn and look for the moment to open them up with a throw or a frame trap.

Good block strings have no gaps the defender can interrupt. Leave a gap and a reversal comes flying out, so spacing and frame data are everything.
“There's a gap in that block string after the medium, that's where I keep getting jabbed.”
