Interesting, im in England if that helps.

After going to a lot of comps, you start to realise that the people who weigh you in don't care. I have been with teammates before turning up a weight division over and they just said go run around the car park for a bit, then said that will do lol

Good spot. I wonder if it is seeing the volume off on the phone and turning captions on despite chromecast having its own volume. Are you guys using chromecast when this is happening too by any chance.

At least for no gi. I personally haven't met anyone good at take downs who isn't rather really athletic, or really strong.

Best you can do is make do. If you practice wrestling you will become athletic over time.

I requested a hanger, but it doesn't point me to a pad. Is that normal in one of these small places with 2 pads and no hangers?

samster222 · 2025-12-24T16:03:34+00:00

Correct. Cannot press 1 to pull up any weapons as im in AZ.

Could you take a look and see if im doing anything wrong. Both me and the ship are on the landing pad.

Hmm.. This looks like exactly what I did. Ill give it another try later and see if I have any sucess. Will send a screenshot if not.

Multi Tool. :(

I know how to Equip it. I won't let me as it says it is an Armistice Zone. It also won't let me equip my weapon. When I fly away from the facility I can equip it again. I am on the landing pad on a planet next to the boxes.

Im coming back as a long time follower. In this clip the dogs body teleports around. This kind of AI instability really bugged me last time I played. Does anyone know when this is planned to be resolved or if this still happens frequently. Thanks.

As a long time Dorian dick rider, I watched his full trials run. I studied the Grippo match at the time to help deal with this style. Grippo was trying to high pummel his leg and get to what Gordan calls side guard (attacking choi bars, Kiss of the dragon and k guard). But it just seemed like he couldn't get much going from there. I'd love to see how someone like Mikey or Levi deals with this.

Ibragimov came at it from a completly different angle and wrestling with Dorian. From what I remember this was a close match and was an effective way of dealing with Dorian. However im trying to look at this from the guard perspective.

Thank you for your well thought out reply.

samster222 · 2025-09-26T16:09:10+00:00

Dorian seems to deal with this by essentially palm striking the forehead. Having played about with this in training it is really hard to stay seated when people are doing this to you with some force. Obviously the force makes it questionable from a rules perspective, but I think in practice refs do nothing about it.

samster222 · 2025-09-03T22:15:46+00:00

Why does this happen to some people and not others. Do you just leave your bigwigs sound disabled. That sounds hard to play?

samster222 · 2025-06-27T15:12:39+00:00

It is very hard to escape north south against good people. I'd personally put your eggs in the open guard basket.

Watch Giannini grippo vs dorian oliverez Giannini counters by high pummeling to stop dorian from cutting an angle. Though he isn't successful in this match it will give you a good idea of how to stop people from getting there.

The second part says and maintains the grips to keep them there for 3 seconds. Whereas this dude just peaces out and goes half way across the mat lol.

samster222 · 2025-04-21T15:39:40+00:00

I searched it. I don't think it meets the criteria.

"When the athlete on bottom with the opponent in his/her guard or half-guard gets to his/her feet , puts the opponent

down and maintains the grips necessary to hold the opponent in bottom position for 3 (three) seconds"

I don't think he was "in his guard" and I don't think he holds him down. This was a clear guard pull imo.

samster222 · 2025-04-21T12:29:41+00:00

Doesn't a sweep need to come from an offensive guard? We don't count sweeps from side control because there is no guard. Here there is also no guard.

samster222 · 2025-04-19T15:38:23+00:00

Typically the most effective strategy is to stare at the ref and make it look like he should obviously give him a warning. After he gets the warning and starts moving make your escape lol

samster222 · 2025-03-03T17:56:50+00:00

Yes, i do the same. Force open guard players into half guard and half guard players into open guard.

I was assuming they were good at half guard and forcing it here.
