Hello
I used \placefigure just for centering the figure. And even if I put
\startcombination directly, won't it reserve blank space for empty
subcaptions?
Actually, I found nice snipped that works like a charm for my needs:
\hbox to \hsize{
\externalfigure[serg1][width=3.5cm]
\hss\externalfigure[serg2][width=3.5cm]
\hss\externalfigure[serg4][width=3.5cm]
\hss\externalfigure[serg3][width=3.5cm]}
...and no combinations needed! ))

I'm not sure I understand your problem. If you don't want a caption
and don't want the figure to float, why do you use \placefigure at
all? Just remove the wrapper and put \startcombination etc. directly
into your source file.

pay also attention to the syntax
(1) "\placefigure[...]{none}"
vs.
(2) "\placefigure[...,none]{}"
In MkII the two delivered the same output, in MkIV variant (1) will
reserve some kind of space for the non-existant caption.
I don’t know if this is intended or a bug.
Example:
\starttext
\placefigure[here]{none}{\externalfigure[dummy]}
\dorecurse{30}{blabla }
\placefigure[here,none]{}{\externalfigure[dummy]}
\dorecurse{30}{blabla }
\stoptext
