What are the advanced buttons for footwork and head movement? Duck, Lunge, Swip & Sway?

L1 + right stick away is what I heard somewhere, not totally sure though.

Yes thanks man it seems to be one of those. I also figured out that you are able to do different kind of slip with R1 + right stick. It's much easier to counter with this slipping technique.

Block Muay Thai clinch knees? Hold RB and it doesn’t do anything

The blocking bar needs to drop faster when someone is rocked, it's nearly impossible to finish somebody otherwise.

I think that’s the point. If it dropped faster it would be too easy to spam strikes resulting in the fight being over every time a fighters rocked.

Blocking Knees in the clinch is the same as body block. RT+L2 on Ps4. I've still has issues where I block the knee and my player reacts like I got hit, but I clearly blocked it.

It only takes like 2 knees to break your block, is it possible that's your issue?

Don't think so. I would block an elbow then he would go for the knee that I would block but the animation would be the one that plays when it hits, though my health and stamina wouldn't be effected.

I'll see if I have the footage and post it.

Anyone know how to chain head movement into body hooks?

]
Hook to the same side that you are moving your head, as power is generated coming BACK to the centre line after slipping.

e.g. Slip to the right, as your head is moving left, back to the centre, throw the right hook, which also moves in the left direction.

So the hardest and aggravating part for my fighter in career mode, is when you first get ranked in top 20 and fight your first top ten fighter, I am getting flat out destroyed in hard difficulty. For those that are having success, how are you doing it? Any helpful tips please?

Do this.

Then mix in uppercuts off the same side lean.

Get em thinking about those lean in body shots, then hit em with the lean uppercut.

[SlipNrip]

Re: EA UFC 3: Teach Me How To Thread: Tips, Strategies, Tutorials

I keep hearing about submission reversals but cant find nothing . I am aware of the guillotine and the kneebar reversals but are there more this game?

2. Listed in the contols in stand up/ grapple defense it says reversals and submission counters are L1+RS. What does this mean as i know sub counters are L2+R2+rs down ??

Appreciate the help !! Thanks

How do I survive being mounted? As soon as I escape my opponent will go to side control then back to mount.

Against the AI I had little success finishing them until I found out about the elbows. :o But on the defensive it's very hard to survive as my fighter is unable to block after taking a few shots (where the AI can take 10's of shots without dropping their hands). Anyhow: it's hard to train for defense in the sparring mode and those arm-traps are hard to trigger.
