Quickly moving on then haha.

What would be your strategy for maintaining or escaping the Thai clinch against an above average player? You've already explained over/under and double under, so I just wanted to dwell somewhat in the same area.

Use the fuzzy guard (Hold RB then hit RT if you see a knee coming, need to be quick)

Block 1 strike and transition out. DO NOT BE PREDICTABLE. I can't even tell you how many times I will see someone go in a complete circle, like Left, Right, Up, repeat. If you change up your patterns it will be very hard to keep you in Thai.

If someone gets me into Thai I have two options which vary depending on the opponents skill level

1) If you have high stamina (NOT = TO THEM, HIGH) you can immediately go left or right as soon as you get put in Thai clinch. As long as their isn't a huge stat disparity & your stamina is 90%+ they will have a hard time blocking your escape. IF THEY DO BLOCK IT do not panic. You have to block strikes (Use fuzzy guard).

2) If stamina is low or you are versus a very high level player, skip the first part above and go right into blocking at least one strike. The longer you are in thai clinch the worse it will get, but you need to be calm. Block the knee or elbow and get out. Watch out for multiple strikes, the clinch is very turn based and reactive, but the momentum can change very quickly.

Along with this, you can mix in fakes but you need to be ready to block in case they override your fakes by throwing a strike.

The clinch is definitely going to be one of my first videos, **** is wack and is easily the most frustrating part of the game.

How can I get a good combo multiplayer with out using leg kicks or spamming 1-2 to the body?

It's way harder to get flash rocks without using leg kicks at then end of combos. I don't like that. I like to box and unless I throw a long punching combo i won't get a flash rock but if I do less punches and end it with a kick I always seem to flash people. Weird.

This is why I'm the Jake Shields of UFC 2. My striking is crappy. I'll dry hump anyone all day then stand on the feet. Makes me feel like a man. LOL!

Is there combo multiplier on the ground like lets say im in half-guard and i go a left right does it do more damage then staing on one side if you know what i mean

My favorite combo is a (H) Jab, (B) Straight and then you can mix in whatever from their, such as a body kick body knee, or a head uppercut head kick ect.

The only time you should have to use body 1-2s is with power strikers. I rarely play them though because they are too hard to reach people with. If someone is playing like.. Jones, Nate, Cerrone, Pettis ect. and spamming body 1-2s you can override them with a power strike to their head.

Nope no combo multiplier on the ground.

what's the logic behind a fighter being able to force me across the cage costing zero stamina, while my stamina barely recovers?

is that purpose built into game?

Are you talking about in the clinch?

Yeah. I was surprised my opponent spent zero stamina pushing me all the while my stamina is slowly recovering. He had full stamina bar, that's how I noticed it cost no stamina.

just curious if that is intentionally built into game. part of the meta or something?
