Before you listen to justalayman or commentator's like vote from a state with a brutal UI formula, do the math yourself to see what you'll get. From your story, you should have been doing the math back in Nov, 2018. Waiting until now, isn't doing you any favors.

From page 3-11. OH only requires $17,720 in 20 weeks for max weekly benefit. If you apply today, and from your story, you have wages from OH from Oct, 2017 to Jun, 2018 to work with for an OH claim. That's way more than 20 weeks. https://jfs.ohio.gov/unemp_comp_faq/faq_elig_definitions4.stm you can use this to do all the math. From this, you are guaranteed no less than 26 weeks of benefits at some formula for your average weekly wage. You fully qualify for an OH claim without burning up a bunch of quarters of wages for something that does you no good or puts probably very little extra money in your pocket, or really shrinks down the total weeks of UI available to you if you have trouble holding on to a job. You do NOT have to do a combined-wage claim if you don't want to.
Then in 26 weeks of UI from UI, all your TX wages will have aged into the base period (july 2018 to Nov 2018). Then you use the formula on 3-12. You'll take 1/25 of your July to Sept quarter because it's most assuredly the high wage quarter, so that determines your weekly benefit amount. Then you drop down to page 3-23. In this regard, TX isn't that great, and you didn't provide any numbers, so it's pretty clear that what looks to be about 20 weeks of TX wages is probably only getting you about 5 weeks of benefits.
Now, you do you do the math: 26 weeks of UI from OH + 5 weeks from TX at what could be a higher rate that you can calculate
OR
You throw the dice with a combined-wage claim, and see what happens. Once you go this route, the wages in your base period quarters will be consumed. If you end up getting a job shortly and keep it, you'll be glad you took the highest benefit possible. If you end up going on and off because you have trouble holding a job, you might find that you can't qualify for a 2nd-year claim because you burned up all your wages and your combined-wage claim expired.
You really need a crystal ball to make the best choice, but put some thought into it before you just race out and file without doing some prep work.
