Question about move evolution (Career)

[OrangeSky]

I understand how to upgrade striking moves... you just keep using those moves and eventually get they will level up. But what about grappling moves like transitions and submissions? From what I’ve read just spamming transitions in sparring or in a fight doesn’t level them up.

Invite a fighter and do subs on them after beating them up a bunch. Subs are way too slow to train on the bjj partner in the timeframe allotrf

But wouldn’t that cause my relationship with that fighter to go into the negative and create a rivalry? Can I keep doing that with the same person? Is that the fastest way to level up grappling and subs?

First of all: it doesn't matter. You'll have money to burn. Negative relations are way better as it generates hype.

You only get a negative relation if you knock them out. Not if you sub them.


This indeed makes invites the best way to train moves as you have 5 minutes. The difficulty is also lessened (a lot) so you can easily sub them.

How many times can you sub someone like that? Just once or as many times as you can during the 5 minutes? Also, would it be best to try to do the lower cost fighters (like the ones that cost 50 points)?

- Just once: when you KO or sub them the session ends prematurely and you'll be missing out on move XP points. A sub will net you a LOT of points though and you can easily prestige several sub styles during your career.

- Indeed better to try the 50p ones because you can get them twice in a week. The fitness gain is very limited so there's no real danger to overtraining. In my last career as SW Amanda Nunes only costs 30p, so you can even do it 3x a week. Sure, she's P4P best in the game, but difficulty is so low that you will never get KO'd unless you taunt (which, btw, is a nice way to trigger rivalries).
